Event Description

Traditional models of enhancing performance rely on control-based strategies that can be inconsistent at best. This class will introduce mindfulness and acceptance as an alternative to traditional models of enhancing performance. Attendees will learn skills and strategies such as cognitive defusion, present moment awareness, willingness, value driven behavior and emotional agility.
