Train skills to thrive in every domain

Training grounded in science and practice

Learn and practice resilience and growth mindset, breath work, meditation, mindbody wellness and mindfulness skills that sustain and optimize your health, humanity and performance.

Mindfulness is a category of mind training that explores the three different modes of attention and trains them to enhance new forms of concentration, self-awareness, and situational awareness to enhance all cognitive, emotion regulation, tactical, and interpersonal skills. This training is an examination into the science and experience of mindfulness as it relates to resilience, warrior-humanitarian ethos, and human performance optimization. These skills provide the foundation to thrive through adversity and trauma and the wisdom to understand strategies for recovery, pliability and striving toward sustained post-traumatic growth.

Opportunities for experiential practice through guided and individual meditations and mindful movement are supported with lectures/discussions throughout each training day.
