Coaching
“Everything you can imagine is real”
— Pablo Picasso
Inner transformation reworks the circumstances and people around us. In coaching, we often work with the inner attitudes of clients and focus on solutions, moving forward from the current situation toward real impact.
Mindfulness
“What day is it?” asked Pooh. “It’s today,” squeaked Piglet. “My favourite day,” said Pooh.
— A. A. Milne
In today’s fast world full of constant pressure and the need to be always available, we often do not realize the impact that this lifestyle has on our inner experience and our health. In my work, I specialize in the topics of inner peace and resilience. Mindfulness is an approach for going through life in a lighter and richer way.

I am passionate about exploring the human psyche and accompanying people on their journey to personal growth, which occurs in cycles and can take many forms.
I believe that mindfulness and lightness helps us to better cope with pressures of our working life, personal life, or other issues.
I deeply respect my clients and would be pleased to help you fulfill your unique potential, overcome difficult periods in your life, or discover effective solutions to career issues.
I am a psychologist and since 2006, I have focused on career and individual coaching. I completed my coaching education at ECI International and Business Coaching College. I am certified by International Coach Federation (ACC accreditation), and I am a member of Slovak Chamber of ICF and a member of SAKo.
I completed certified MBSR teacher training in Institute for Mindfulness- Based Approaches in Berlin and a mindfulness teacher training accredited by UK Complementary Medical Association. I focus on teaching mindfulness and its use in various aspects of life. I have long term meditation practice and I work under supervision.
In addition, I have 15 years of business and HR management experience in a global technology company where I worked on different management positions in various world countries.
I have two amazing sons who I learn a lot from.
The MBSR course enriched my life a lot. I liked the form that is more professional without an unnecessary layer of spirituality. I listen to the recordings that were part of the course up to now. The course and especially its teacher Eva enabled me to embrace the mindfulness practice. Thanks to this, my inner and outer world has changed a lot. I had tried to practice meditation and mindfulness a few times before, however it had no long-term effect. The MBSR format of the course helped me to implement regularity which led to visible in changes in my life.
Peter Dendis
The MBSR course was a useful guide how to stop, notice what is going on and why , enjoy the power of present moment and relax the mind that normally works in high speed. It showed me new ways how I can myself increase my life energy by faster and more effective elimination of stress which I am often not even aware of. Because before I had learned to suppress or overlook stress before. An interesting thing that I did not expect was observing specific reactions of my body on different mind states and vice versa.
Eva as a coach is a systematic and patient guide and teacher. She works with scientifically proven methods, that she can explain and adjust to the needs of the group and also to individual needs.
It was nice to go through the course with a group of people with similar thinking, motivated to move our mindfulness and awareness to the next level.
Lucia Suďová
I took part in an individual 8-week mindfulness course. Eva is an experienced and empathetic coach. It was pleasant to discover that in a natural form I can change my approach to different situations in everyday work and personal life. The meetings with Eva were somehow a start of inner changes for me. Self-awareness and certain techniques can help us to navigate our lives in a qualitatively better way.
Everything is in our hands, or better said in our minds. I sincerely recommend Eva.

Eva Zavacká is a coach and trainer that you can without hesitation recommend to your friends or business partners. Except for coaching she provides also other ways of development and support, which is great.
I have taken part on the workshop „Slow down and Speed up”. It was an excellent and effective training to enhance your inner harmony, better cope with stress, increase your effectiveness and the strength of being in the present moment with mindfulness. I took away interesting and effective relaxation techniques, basics of office yoga and a strong belief that Eva is a professional with a great amount of empathy.
Anna Pastierová
A coach, psychologist and trainer. Eva is a great professional with a human face. When coaching she in neutral and leads the client to cognition in a way that the client feels that someone cares about him, however he discovers the solutions himself. Eva also approaches life and works situations of her clients as a psychologist. She can in the right moment “prescribe” what is needed – either a psychological advice or very effective business and life coaching. The clients often gets 2 in 1, which is outstanding.
Miriam Kittler
From the mindfulness workshop I took away not only new and interesting information but mainly comprehension on what my body and soul actually need. An unexpected bonus was my own action plan on what I want and can do about it. The workshop will not change one’s life, this can be done only by ourselves, however it is the right place to start.
The workshop took place in a very pleasant location and informal atmosphere that helped us to get off the beaten track and make space for new ideas and experiences. I highly recommend it!
Hana Masrnová
I took part on the workshop “Slow down and Speed up” without any significant expectations and with an open mind. The term “mindfulness” had been unknown to me up to then. I was driven by curiosity and the need to sort my own thoughts in a period when deciding about my next career steps. Conscious work with own thoughts , mindfulness, ability to absolutely concentrate on the present moment and basics of meditation techniques mean a huge enrichment for me.
Eva is an outstanding and complex person, a professional coach, psychologist and a trainer. When being in a complicated work or life situation, Eva can for sure help you navigate to the best solution that is right for you.
Klaudia Benkovská
Self-kindness is a common theme currently, in the age of requirements coming to us from all sides. Practicing and incorporating mindfulness into everyday life is also a part of self-kindness. Which means allowing yourself to devote time just to yourself. This learning from the MBSR course was key for me and therefore I try to spread it among my friends, family and clients.
Veronika Veselá
I took part in the MBSR course in a hectic period of my life and it helped me to remind myself how beautiful present moments are – here and now. Thanks to the course I got familiar with different techniques – such as body scan, meditations, increasing awareness of own feelings – some of them I liked, I learned them well and incorporated them into my life on regular basis. Eva is a careful observer, great listener and non-violent guide that is always there for you during the course.
