Inner Calmness - A calm mind and a calm body ready to go.
Using brain training to calm the mind gives the person better control over their energy, emotions and body control. Techniques include: Body Scan, Autogenic Training, HRV, Mental MiniBreaks, Focus exercises, visualisations, Virtual Reality and mindfulness training.
Various HRV measurements reveal that a more balanced autonomic nervous system can be realised to develop increased psychophysiological resilience with it.
During this phase, participants will receive several workshops focused on breathing and emotion regulation.
Confidence - the starting point is that we know that whatever it takes to achieve success will be done without further analysis of the 'inner critic' or 'ego'. We will not be distracted by it.
During training, we tolerate regression in performance unconditionally so as not to undermine the fundamental belief in one's true potentials. During the training of inner calmness in mind and body, the new skills will gradually be exposed to more tasks and assignments that are more challenging. During the training programme, the person may experience feelings of "failure", but instead of getting angry and/or out of step with his heart rhythms, he learns to adopt a confident and "cool" attitude.
Fully concentrated - fully absorbed in the moment.
Training with a careful mix of innovative tools and exercises reduces the likelihood of mental distraction and can improve the person's ability to stay focused. This then increases accuracy in achieving performance.
Effortless - The 8-week training programme and coach emphasise achieving training goals that you can achieve effortlessly. "Trying too hard", "having to or too much control" are 'unconsciously' psycho-physiologically detected and coach suggestions appear to help the person regain effortless breathing or ease the activity.
Automatic - "Think less to achieve more" can be trained beautifully using HRV measurements. Trying too hard or thinking too intensely will be immediately apparent: the result will show an increase in HRV and a decrease in sweat secretion.
Fun and joy - When you are 'in flow', it is a real pleasure to participate. Living 'games' intensify this feeling because they are fun to play and the player gets positive feedback on improvements in self-regulation.
Under control - Biofeedback is a great way to promote emotion control. It works simultaneously both physiologically and psychologically. "Seeing is believing." Achieving success while using the new skills in the process works tremendously positively on growth in personal effectiveness and developing self-direction.
Due to greater inner calm and because more control of the body and mind is gained through training, this is reinforced with each repetition every time during training. Perfectionists learn partly because of this to replace 'compulsive control' with optimal control. More is gained in the ability to relate.
