Dave Wood | React or Respond to Stress? Navigating the "Gap" for Peak Performance

If you haven't yet, I'd be forever grateful if you left us a rating or review to let others know that you love the show

Dave wood works with high level athletes (Israel Adesanya, Kai Kara-France) , entrepreneurs, CEO's, and everyday people like you and me to teach the mechanisms of stress, how to regulate your nervous system, and how to stay calm under pressure (the name of his life changing workshops he runs in Piha, New Zealand)

You will learn A LOT in today's episode that you can apply right away in your everyday life.

From Dave's Website: 

"Integrated training is all about identifying where you have imbalances in specific body systems that are often overlooked in traditional training methods. 

Two of these systems which are often the least trained are the respiratory and nervous systems. As it turns out, these are essential when it comes to remaining calm, clear and focused under stress and pressure. 

Integrated Training combines movement, breath-work, recovery, and mental resilience to super-charge performance and health. All wrapped in an environment that inspires and challenges you to thrive, not only in competitive environments, but in everyday life."

Dave went DEEP on strategies and methods you can utilize today to start to train your body and mind to take control of stressors and how you respond to them instead of walking around in a reactive state.

We got into the difference between controlled and uncontrolled stress, how to program your mindset to utilize setbacks and stress to your advantage, what the "gap" between stimulus and response is and how recognizing that will change your whole perspective on life and improve performance, mental health link with nature, ice baths, pillars of health, dealing with anxiety, procrastination, depression, avoidance and so much more.
