Welcome to New Zealand’s Premium Stress Mitigation, Mindset and Mental preparedness

2-day Workshop.

In this workshop you will master practical skills relating to the control of your body and mind’s response to stress and pressure situations. You will learn to gain better control of your mind and ability to regulate stress and pressure in real time so you can respond to situations, thoughts, emotions and life with more clarity and precision.

You will learn the same mind/body training that we implement with elite level athletes to ensure they can control the mental aspects of performance. However, this workshop is for anybody who is looking to optimise their health and performance whether you’re an athlete, professional a mum or a dad.

You will learn how to control key body systems in dynamic settings to improve endurance, focus, creativity, strength and power.

The workshop is a unique combination of theory-based knowledge, skill acquisition and practical applications that will teach you:

· How to better control your energy output by fluidly transitioning between sympathetic and parasympathetic states (energised vs relaxed). This will have a profound effect on your ability to recover faster, clear your mind and be present, sleep better and remain calm and in control in stressful situations, while having better mental focus throughout the day.

· The role of stress in shaping your response to challenging situations and how to control its effects on the body and mind. You will learn the underlying mechanisms so that you can start to leverage stress to your advantage.

· Cold water immersion – contrast therapy, beach training and pool session to reinforce learning in dynamic practical settings

· Science based tools and protocols to rebalance your nervous system and train your mind stop latching to the past and future.

· Establishing a protocol and framework for one of the most important thing you have, your mindset. You will work to unravel some of your subconscious patterns of behaviour that are detrimental to your health, personal growth and performance. The biggest change often comes with awareness alone. This is the first step to rewiring the way you think, act and deal with life’s stressors.

· How to perform during crucial moments by remaining task focused and avoiding overthinking.

· How to include controlling your breathing and nervous systems into regular training. You will learn how to use your breathing to illicit a calm state and how to use your breathing system to enhance health and performance.

· Throughout the 2 days you will find yourself transitioning between theory session, skill acquisition sessions and practical application that challenge you both physically and mentally. By incorporating these 3 facets of learning we start to make substantial and sustainable change.
