LEARN TO OVERCOME PERFORMANCE ANXIETY AND MANAGE STRESS
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP SERIES
Most of us have had some experiences where stress and anxiety can feel overwhelming. This response can be caused by social, professional, or personal interactions.
A well-known secret of the personal development industry is that there are thousands of years of knowledge of how to manage and regulate our physiology and calm our minds in ancient yogic traditions.
When combined with cutting-edge modern science, this ancient wisdom offers us an immense library of techniques and skills from to suit every life situation.
Understanding Our Natural Response to Challenges
Stress and anxiety aren't defects--they are an ancient survival mechanism trying to help us respond to threats. The challenge is that our stress response evolved to cope with immediate physical threats and life-and-death situations.
The good news is that the time-tested meditative and yogic practices allow us to work with these natural responses rather than against them.
A New and Sustainable Approach to Managing Performance Stress
This two-part evening workshop series offers a unique blend of practical time-tested stress management techniques, performance psychology, and physiology. We focus on understanding the science behind performance anxiety and the practical tools to manage it.
How This Training Was Developed
Robert Mitchell has taught stress management as part of his Mindfulness-Based Resilience training since 2013 in about 5,000 classes to organisations and individuals.
This training is an evolution of the continuous improvement process that Robert applies. This series includes and extends the stress-management and emotional regulation modules of the Mindfulness-Based Resilience 5-week course.

Quick Fixes Never Work for Long
Silver bullet solutions may appear to give you what you want, but as I am sure you know, in life, we get back what we put in.
Learning our responses may have taken decades, so we need to invest time in unlearning them and replacing them with more helpful responses. Continuous improvement over time is the only way to create lasting change.
In the series, we will explore how to:
- Transform nervous energy into focused enthusiasm.
- Use breathing techniques that actually work under pressure
- Build sustainable practices that grow stronger over time
- Learn how to neutralise a negative mindset
- Develop a personal toolkit for managing high-pressure experiences and challenging people.
- You will learn how to manage your energy (much stress exists on a foundation of sleep deprivation, and we need to learn how to work with that)
And... This Training Defeats Brain Fog!
You will leave the series with the strategy and practices to build your own process of incremental improvement to support your path of personal development.
