Meditation is beautiful and I'm a big supporter of it, but it produces different effects. This specifically from a performance perspective is something that you can use during performance moments to shift from that flight or flight state into a flow state. The other piece is that what you're developing through 10 weeks is you're transferring the heart rate oscillations that like big beautiful waves when you breathe at your resonant frequency versus just regularly.
Can we hack our bodies and our minds? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Gary O’Reilly and Chuck Nice talk about how to optimize human performance with performance and sport psychologist Leah Lagos, PhD.
