TAREK AAD

I am happy to have you here and this is a clear message that you are on a search mission to understand more about stress, and this is a good start, welcome!

In 2017, I asked myself one question of how stress, which is simply non tangible, turns into fat under the skin and distorts our behaviors and sometimes everything that matter to us.

My experience working in corporate environments for 15 years and my training as a nurse, a certified mind body practitioner, and a stress master have put me in the unique position to help companies and individuals transform their health and well-being by going beyond surface level solutions and getting to the root cause of most issues: unresolved chronic stressors.

The most dangerous enemy to a person is the one that the person totally underestimate, and believe me for this, the damage of stress is underestimated on personal, cultural, occupational, and community level. In fact we do not recognize our struggles to be stress routed.

Chronic stress disrupts metabolism, eating habits, digestion, immunity, energy, brain function, leads to muscular and neurological impairment, even distort relationships, and much more…

When any type of stress is constantly present, your nervous system stays in a perpetual state of fight or flight. This affects us individually and culturally.

My Approach

The most fundamental corner stone tool I use in any shape or form of coaching is the stress SMQ which unfolds to you and me the reality of where you are, and what type of stress you are facing. And the beauty starts from here!

I teach top level executives and corporate HR leads how to incorporate a holistic wellness leadership approach that results in a happier and higher functioning workplace. This is a top rated one to one training that includes discussion of core concepts, brainstorming sessions, reflections on findings, and creation of actionable items and ultimately a cascading mechanism to the organization downstream.

For corporate groups, this comes in the shape of group coaching of 10 -12 people in the room, for one day which makes it very engaging, and the agenda includes discussion of the SMQ reports, group reflections, meditations, group team building, and for sure fundamental knowledge on the stress effect.

A light version can be offered via zoom over 4 virtual sessions if the team really can’t make it for a face to face.

For individuals, I offer one-to-one coaching, which starts with an exploratory call, and once both of us agree, we go for by-monthly calls for 2 or 3 months, depends on how much you need these sessions, or still need them, basically I am usually open for all possibilities.

What They Are Saying

“If one understands at least a tiny part of the laws of epigenetics, a knowledge that many experts who have dogmatically embraced Darwin have for decades not allowed it to become a science, knows that Milan’s sessions are certainly one of those triggers that will direct the gene’s response in the favour of good health. I have never yet heard of a coaching approach that would more holistically capture the whole essence of a person.”

“As one of the leading business training and coaching companies in Slovenia, we had the privilege to work with dr. Milan Hosta from Body&Mind Institute at various levels. After delivering a workshop to our staff and bringing obvious quality to our team, Dr. Hosta was invited as an expert facilitator of the team-building workshop to our customer and got excellent feedback. As a highly qualified expert in stress management and coaching, he brings new perspectives and can tackle the issue from philosophical to the very practical embodied point of view. My warmest recommendation.”

“Mr. Hosta has shown great skills in workshops moderation and transfer of knowledge to our staff, including the board of management. We have enjoyed team coaching and expert support via various channels, and we recommend Dr. Hosta and his team to anyone who is looking for high-end expert coaching, resilience and flow optimization in the corporate world.”

“The decision to join the program was intuitive. I heard some information on TV and it seemed to me that I could embark on this journey. I am a psychologist and it is always a challenge for me to include new, slightly different insights in my knowledge and understanding of human activity. Also the weather was just right, a corona with limited movement and an autumn with shorter days. A real opportunity to develop yourself and make changes to your daily routine. And I was not disappointed! I really got a lot of new views, thoughts and knowledge that I put into my mosaic of knowledge. I started developing new practices of movement, breathing and also thinking. And I felt good about it. When I have a bad day, I engage in either breathing or movement exercises or meditation. I like it because I can do it right now when I’m pretty much sitting at my computer because I’m working from home. All of this is gradually becoming part of my day. I especially liked Milan’s way of working, simple, varied and inspiring. I trusted his knowledge and explanations and we opened some debate several times. Therefore, I would recommend these meetings to all those who are still thinking about going down this path. Take time for yourself! ”

“In August 2020, I attended 28 days of coaching. The course exceeded all my expectations, which, according to what I saw and heard about dr. Hosta, were pretty high. I was impressed by the kindness and professionalism of dr. Hosta and the immense enthusiasm that was selflessly shared. Although I used to be quite careless regarding my body and spirit, the course encouraged me to establish a routine that I still stick to now. From morning ritual, breathing, and exercise to meditation with which I end the day. The seed has germinated. If you are deciding or you are undecided, I urge you to invest in yourself. For me, the investment has more than paid off.”

“Milan and I met at the leadership conference in Sofia, Bulgaria. Milan had very powerful presentation there. Have been participating in dozens and dozens of different management and leadership speeches and presentations, I have to admit that Milan’s performance was clear refreshment. He is obviously knowledgeable, but his style is very original: humorous but not aggressive, calm but still dynamic, discusses leadership from different and somehow new perspective and able to keep the audience fully with him. If you have a need for someone to tell you leadership/management story from different perspective Milan is for sure more than good choice and my warm recommendation.”

“In my 15 years of service, I have attended many training courses, but I have never attended such a good, full of life-giving wisdom workshop. In addition, I had the opportunity to exercise. I would really recommend it to anyone who wants to forget about everyday problems for a few hours and see and hear about ways to look at the world with a “light touch.” The lecture was also very relaxing, with a pleasant atmosphere and positive energy between the lecturer and the participants.”

“It quickly became clear that I was doing something really good for myself, learning to breathe properly, learning how to calm myself with breathing, getting lots of good advice, …. I feel much better with more energy. Last time I noticed that I had not used ventolin for a very long time (I have asthma). Just in case, I carry it with me. Milan has one super power. It calms us all down, the “stories” that guide us into meditation are very interesting.”
