What is this Workshop?
A journey into the resilience mindset and mindfulness skills practice in support of greater health and performance in every domain of our lives. Particularly focused on the occupational stress and trauma of the first responder, this course offers a practical and tactical approach to navigating the arch of the responder’s career with resilience. Discussions grounded in relevant data, contemporary scientific research, and the warrior wisdom of the lived experience will inform issues around stress, trauma, attention, compassion and performance.
The course delivers experiential learning through operationally relevant guided mindfulness practices that specifically address three key performance domains: the Thinking Mind, Emotions and Feeling States, and the Physical Body. Participants will explore each domain and understand how the consistent practice of mindfulness skills shifts our mindset around trauma and transforms our relationship to stressors at work and home.
Mindfulness is a category of mind and body training that explores the three different modes of attention and trains them to enhance new forms of concentration, self-awareness, compassion and situational awareness to enhance all cognitive, emotion regulation, tactical and interpersonal skills.
