Train Your Mind to Train Your Body (replay available)
By Shannon McKenna Aerial
*REPLAY IS AVAILABLE - WATCH AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT*
***NO EQUIPMENT REQUIRED***
It's time to get to the core of what's REALLY holding you back from levelling up your training: Your brain.
Let's be real: knowing what you *should* be doing, or *could* be doing doesn't actually mean you're doing it.
Even when we *desperately* want something to happen like, say, finding motivation to get off the couch, to stop self-sabotaging, or to not feel mired in imposter syndrome - it doesn't necessarily mean it happens.
Breaking through the barrier of turning the things we know and want into actual reality remains an impossibility unless we deal with the brain-based realities that are keeping us stuck. We have to understand why we get stuck, and what to do about it.
Welcome to a whole new part of your workout where we give you the tools to understand how to avoid plateaus, fight imposter syndrome, re-find motivation, kill procrastination, and work more successfully with your students/coaches/partners.
(HINT: These tools can ALSO be applied in your regular life)
This webinar, created by licensed therapist and circus coach Lacy Alana, LCSW, MSSW, RSW teaches you how to hack brain science to bust through plateaus, improve your physical performance, and break out of patterns that are keeping you stuck - all without adding extra time in the studio.
Topics of Discussion:
-Self-sabotage/Imposter Syndrome - Why we do it, how to catch it, how to make it stop
-Motivation and procrastination How do we find motivation again if we seem to have lost it? Why can I *want* to do something, but still not actually seem able to *actually* do the thing? (And what do I do about it to get unstuck?)
-Relational Dynamics in the Circus Space: How can you and your coach (or student!) can work together to achieve more success more quickly
The workshop runs 1.5 hours and include information AND exercises you can do in the moment to give you the kick you need to get started.
