STILLE AND THE CITY – citySTILLE
Living in a big city
Living in a big city nowadays can be quite challenging as these large settlements seems to emphasize most the Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity of the VUCA world we live in. Often, these unpredictable external conditions are affecting our life standard and work performance. Politics, economic intercourses and demographics across geographic and political boundaries are unpredictable. Social and cultural developments are complexed and the mantra of the future seems to be constant and fast change. Who, Where and How am I in the midst of all?
STILLE = SPACE FOR STILLNESS
When we practice mindfulness and compassion, we stop living a life on automatic pilot, at the will of the external, unpredictable conditions. We start being sensitive to our everyday experiences in a different way: from the mind and the heart of a fine observer, a non-judgemental being that embraces life with peace, love and equanimity.

This awareness has the capacity to clear away the information overload that contributes to our stress. We create space in our mind and in our day by “breathing” in the present moment how it is now – not how we expected, thought or imagined it will be. Training this innate ability of mind to be present and implicitly be well – as neuroscientific evidence spots out – cultivates healthy mindsets and happy, well-being city inhabitants.
A clear and peaceful mind has a great potential for new ideas, for better decisions, focus, creativity and for being happy in every now!
“Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be aware of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations and the surrounding environment in a nonjudgmental way, in the present moment.” Jon Kabat-Zinn
WE FEEL GOOD, HERE AND NOW!
citySTILLE – Mindfulness and Meditation Center Vienna / WELL-BEING in the city was created to enable city inhabitants to feel good.

So, what if we stop rushing right now and aim to create a SPACE TO BREATHE in your day, at your office, for yourself or your organisation?
Breathing in…. breathing out….letting go…
citySTILLE space and concept for well-being was founded May 2015 by Nicoleta Pfeffer-Barbela. It has been created out of strong vision that we can rebalance and recharge ourselves also in the middle of the city. The nature plays an important role for our well-being. A reconnection with ourselves surrounded by nature elements, caring the primordial information of stillness, works wonderfully! citySTILLE and its forward thinking concept has been 2016 part of the exhibition Die Zukunft des Stadt of Technical Museum Vienna and has often gained interest in the MEDIA.

„ In the midst of a fast-paced life within the city landscape nothing is more important or nurturing than sitting still and being consciously aware of that deep, sacred and healing stillness within. In this stillness we are warmheartedly connected with ourselves, with each other and with the entire universe.“ Nicoleta Pfeffer-Barbela, citySTILLE founder
