Integrations
5 concepts that is integrated into our work together.
They all have a significant impact on the success you will get when you work on improving the sustainability of your performance.
1
The brain governs all change
Things can only change in a safe environment. If our brains ability to predict the safety of the outcome is diminished, it will not allow for any change.
Applying neurology as a framework will ensure that the predictability remains high, and minimize the resistant to change. Understanding how to create and maintain predicability, is key to support a successful change
Values
We can name many values that we believe are important, in our professional life and in our personal life. But our core values are what defines us.
Knowing our own core values is an important first step. If we want to make the best decisions for ourselves in life, we simply must have a target to aim for.
The physical manifestations we experience when we interact with people around us is rooted in our core values.
Combining a mental and intellectual consciousness with a physical observation can speed up decision processes, and accuracy, when we combine them with our core values.

O2
Not enough available oxygen will activate our stress response. Our ability to breathe depends on our skills. The external environment, the internal state of hormones, nervous system regulation, and our past experiences, are all incorporated into our breathing mechanics.
Breathing is driven by muscle activation, and since it fuels the brain, our tissues and organs, not to mention our cells, it must be addressed.
Inspiratory and expiatory muscles must be controlled. Carbon dioxide, oxygen, and lactic acid levels must be balanced
Nutrition
The easy way is to pick a diet and hope for the best. Pick a diet that sounds cool or is the "current trend".
If we however are interested in longevity, performance, and health long term, different nutritional strategies must be applied.
We can´t assume that one diet is gonna work for us throughout our life. Life changes, the challenges we face changes, and our nutrition must be able to adapt.

Stress
Stress is a disproportionate difference between the internal resources and the external requirements.
When stress becomes bad, it's because it has been turned on for too long, and that the resources required to modulate and fuel it are not present. Simply put we need energy to be able to handle the stress of life. That is part of why energy supply and utilisation is so important when we want to control our stress levels.
Because the stress response is a performance system and It helps us in times of extraordinary circumstances, it is not just a question of avoiding it. Rather it is a conscious understanding of how to fuel it and use it when life requires it.
