Summary
When was the last time you felt anxious, depressed or stressed out?
If you're thinking “Right now! This moment. Today, yesterday, most days,” you're definitely not alone.
It happens to everyone. You get stressed, you start breathing wrong, and the day gets away from you.
Most of us would agree that we've never seen people, especially in the western world, more sick and stressed out than right now. And more and more, it's unfortunate to see the younger generation suffering.
Our tech-heavy environment is simply out of alignment with our genetics, but there's plenty we can do to correct that imbalance.
And the good news is that it only takes a few minutes to calm your mind, find your center and get into that flow state where everything becomes effortless.
And to show us how, today, I'm honored to be here with Lee Holden, a doctor of Chinese medicine, author and internationally celebrated Qi Gong master who has devoted over 25+ years to helping others learn and benefit from the powerful principles of Qi Gong. Holden has taught his practice to the NFL, NHL, Olympic athletes, royal families, and even Adam Sandler.
This episode with Lee Holden is very packed and concentrated with information, I hope you dig it. You're about to hear:
- Why a relaxed state achieved through Qi Gong will help you shed fat more efficiently
- Tips for longevity and antiaging from a 106-year-old teacher
- How to balance our energy and escape the wired and tired cycle
- How athletes can easily tap into the flow state and bring their best energy to their sport
- Increasing productivity by scheduling 3-minute breathing breaks
- Why rest days are essential to peak performance in athletics
- How to recover with stress management practices that replenish your energy
- And tons, tons more...
