Mental and Physical Fitness
require strategy and practice.
Cognitive/Behavioral Therapy (CBT): I was very fortunate to have known and trained with Albert Ellis the founder of CBT.
CBT has a very basic foundation that is: Events/People don’t directly cause our emotions, rather it is how we think about the event that has the greatest influence on our emotions.
The Athletic Mind program teaches us that our thoughts are very powerful. We can rarely control the events but we can control how we respond. Learn to Respond Not React!
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Mindfulness enables us to notice which mindset we are in, and to better access our Wise Mind.
Our best sports performance, and fulfillment in life resides in the Wise Mind.
You'll learn how to:
1. Notice and be aware of your Emotional Mind.
2. Consult Your Reasonable Mind.
3. Access and make decisions from your Wise Mind.
Misogi
- Doing difficult things that are good for us. This one concept is, hands down, my favorite.
- Do the difficult training and you'll improve athletically.
- Have the difficult conversation and your relationships will improve.
- Apply misogi to most any area of your life and you'll see growth.
