Anxiety isn't something that you have to be a slave to, you also don't have to rely on outside sources to cope with its effects. You have an incredibly potent medicine cabinet that's built into who you are as a human being. We didn't come to dominate the planet because we're fragile. We did it because we're incredibly robust. YOU are incredibly robust. You have all the tools you need, you just need to learn how to use them Step-up, take responsibility for everything in your life.

If you want to take radical responsibility for yourself then you have to choose to make choices. Regardless of the situation, there are always choices to be made and the choices that you make shape that experience. They dictate the way your mind and body respond to the stress of life. Your choices shape who you are in real-time. As soon as you stop making choices you relinquish your power and you become a victim. Step-up, take responsibility for everything in your life.

The breath is NOT a panacea, it will NOT solve everything! What it will do though is supercharge all of the rest of your efforts.

Comfort vs. Discomfort... We all know which one we choose the majority of the time. But why? Do we realize the consequences of consistently taking the path of least resistance? Collectively I believe the answer to that question is no! In this episode, I break that question down and give you strategies to start intentionally choosing discomfort to shift your body and mind to a place of peace and empowerment.

Milk before meat, walk before you run, the concept of dialing in the basics before moving on to more advanced levels of mastery is nothing new. Everybody knows it's necessary to nail down the fundamentals first but the actual basics are wholesale being ignored, namely the breath, and performance suffers. In some cases, you could be losing out on 64% of your capacity!

Your breath is the gateway to controlling your nervous system and your physiology. We've all had situations that it feels like your mind or your body is betraying you.

Having an injury isn't ever the whole story, there are always layers. When an athlete, or anyone else for that matter, is injured there are layers to that injury. There's obviously a physical aspect to it but there are also mental, emotional, and social layers to it as well. If you want your rehab to be as efficient AND as effective as possible you have to address each layer, I'll teach you how.

Injury comes with a lot of baggage: fear, anxiety, and a crumbling sense of identity are some of the usual suspects. It doesn't have to be that way. You can get the confidence you need to get back to the things you love. First we need to define confidence because you'll never obtain something you can't define.
