IN TODAY’S CHALLENGING business environment, high-performing executives have been adopting multidisciplinary approaches to becoming more productive and effective under pressure — and to achieve it without compromising their personal health and happiness. In BodyMindBusiness, we learn how to use breath as our medicine to self activate the qualities of the Parasympathetic Nervous System building a resilient executive optimizing wellness and performance into profitability.
Today’s executive is moving through life at such a rapid unconscious fast face with distractions, commitments, deadlines and pressures that leave us feeling as if we can’t keep up. In fact, one might say, it leaves us feeling out of breath.
Breath rates and patterns are influencing our physiology, biochemistry, biomechanics and psychological states of being. Our ability to self-regulate the quality of feeling and the emotion of our moment-to-moment experience is intimately tied to our physiology and the reciprocal interactions among physiological, cognitive, and emotional systems. We must have the skills to adapt to different environments, situations, and folks who might see the moments differently than we do.
We do this with BREATH.
