WHAT IS MENTAL TRAINING?

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

DEFAULT 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

OPTIMIZED MINDSET

  • 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
