WHAT IS MENTAL TRAINING?

An untrained mind ​leads to stress, worry, and decreased performance...

DEFAULT MINDSET

OPTIMIZED MINDSET

  • Research shows our mind wanders around 50% of the time, either thinking about the past, or the future

  • Our default mode is a ruminating unfocused mind full of worry, anxiety, and not very aware

  • Unhappy, unproductive, and decreased performance

  • When we are fully immersed in the present moment we are more likely to tap into flow

  • This is where we have peak experiences; we perform at our best, and we feel at our best

  • Happiness, productivity, focus, and performance is increased

 

 

Flow Performance mental training is designed to improve performance and well-being. Our goal is simply to increase the amount of time people spend in flow — on the playing field or at work. Working together we can provide the resources to help you and your team:

​ 

  • Become more present, fully engaged, and ready to perform when it matters

  • Understand and apply the science behind achieving flow states in sport and in your career

  • Reach your performance potential in sports and/or other aspects of life

  • Regulate arousal, stress, and/or emotions

  • Increase self-awareness 

  • Develop Emotional Intelligence (EQ)

  • Learn to become more present in performance and daily life
