Background

About Danielle Feger

As a stress counsellor and wellbeing trainer, I developed my own wellbeing concept, Equilibrium4Wellbeing, which is based on Positive Psychology, Emotional Intelligence, Mindfulness, and Embodiment. I lead the wellbeing programme at Digital Sciences and lead workshops and individual sessions in the UK as well as in Austria and Switzerland. I take a holistic approach that focuses on the physical, emotional and mental because I am convinced that exploring our own experience is the most effective way to achieve better, sustainable wellbeing. My motto as wellbeing trainer is 'Creating Space in Body and Mind'. Stress, anxiety, strong emotions, or overthinking can restrict the space we need in order to experience feelings and in order to respond skillfully to whatever arises. I help people exploring where (and why) space is restricted, and support them in widening the space. Previously, I had a long career in research development at the University of Cambridge where I gained extensive experience in fundraising and managing international research projects. In addition I had the opportunity to establish a mentoring programme for early-career researchers.
