mPEAK
Next Course Runs: January 10th – 12th at the University Club, San Diego, CA
This cutting-edge 8-week training program is built around The latest brain research related to Peak Performance, Resilience, Focus, And “Flow”.
The mPeak course is aimed at anyone who wants to learn how to blend mindfulness practice with the latest neuroscience findings and positive psychology knowledge to perform at their best professionally and personally.
The mPEAK program enhances the human capacity of mindfulness through established and empirically supported practices and exercises.
Mindfulness is effective precisely because it is a way of being and relating to all aspects of life, rather than a specific technique or tool for a particular goal.
course objectives
- Develop greater focus and concentration
- Practice responding wisely to stress rather than reacting out of fear
- Cultivate resilience by sitting with emotionally difficult or physically painful experiences
- Tap into the power of “flow states” during performance events and everyday life
- Learn to be present to the process and let go of attachment to outcome
- Leverage personal strengths and stretch your personal edges without giving up or burning out
- Recognize and shift from critical to compassionate inner self talk
- Process and learn from inevitable mistakes and failures
mPEAK is offered in a safe and supportive environment for exploring how we typically respond to challenges and opportunities and provides tools for becoming more adept at meeting and overcoming these obstacles to enhance performance and well-being. The emphasis of the program is on enhancing attentional and emotional resources, as well as personal capacities for mindfulness and compassion. The mPEAK course is currently being offered once per week virtually via ZOOM over the course of 8-weeks (two hours per session).
