About
Hello There!
I am so pleased you chose to get to know me – thank you!
I’m Vanda and I am a Tour Guide to Your Mind®. I’m on a mission to help people who are committed to making a change, explore their inner excellence and become the very best version of themselves; guiding them on their journey of self-enablement to grow in confidence and self-esteem and lead a purposeful, proactive and fulfilled life.
I am a firm believer in people’s potential and life-long learning, knowing that everyone learns differently therefore everyone’s growth will look different too.
My bag has always been the brain, how it works, neuroplasticity and the incredible power of the human mind. My background is in neuro-rehabilitation and I’ve spent 20+ years exploring the human brain as a conductor (neuro-rehabilitation specialist).
As a conductor I worked in Conductive Education since 2004. A very unique and effective, Hungarian method of working with people with different neurological conditions. I specialised in working with people with adults with Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Cerebral Palsy, acquired Head Injury or a Stroke (to mention a few), as well as supporting their family members/carers.
(You can read more about my professional experience and passion for neuro-rehabilitation on the pages for People with neurological conditions and the page for Carers.)
In 2018 I took on a new venture to study Neuro-Linguistic Programming. I have been practicing as an NLP Master Practitioner and coach, Hypnotherapist and Mindfulness Practitioner for a number of years, helping people with their Personal Growth and Mental Fitness and I love every minute of it!
In fact, I love it so much, that I’ve become an NLP Trainer as well and have been running Certified NLP Practitioner Training courses for a number of years through my training college, Vanda Varga Training®. There is no better feeling than seeing my pracitioners being out in the world, helping people change their lives for the better!

Most importantly what you need to know about me is that I am a fellow human being just like you. I love painting, reading, horse riding, nature and animals. I also love going on long nature walks with my fiancé, Johannes, and our little doggie, Peky.
I do care deeply about our planet and environment and this is why I partnered up with Just One Tree. I plant trees after each session, workshops, training days on behalf of my participants so my offering won’t only help with your personal or professional growth, but also to restore biodiversity in our forests and oceans. This way, We – together – have a bigger positive impact on the World.
I am a genuinely kind, loving and caring person who is curious about the world and the different ways people view it. Boy, do I love exploring other people’s maps of the world!
I’ve always been a keen observer of the human behaviour and communication. Through my life and professional experience, I learnt to ‘understand and appreciate the human condition’ – as one of my clients put it, and the different programs we run to live our lives. And also learnt that all programs as such can be changed with the right approach.
As I mentioned above, I am a firm believer of lifelong learning and the ability of the human brain to rewire itself. (To learn more about this, click here: ► NLP / Neuroplasticity video) I believe that everyone, regardless of their age, race, gender or condition, has the ability to change and grow, gain or regain their confidence, self-esteem and have a brighter, more positive outlook on life.
And if you are happy to choose me to be the Tour Guide to Your Mind®, I would be more than happy to show you how magical the power of your Mind actually is! Whether it’s in 1:1 session, Certified NLP Practitioner Courses, or MindTours™ for Teams, is up to You and your circumstances. You would do me a favour by allowing me to do what I LOVE and spread the magic.
Thank you for spending some time with me!
If you have any questions or would like to explore more, just drop me an email. I’ll be happy to meet you.
Much love,
Vanda
