We assume that the longer and harder we work, the more we will be able to generate. Performance optimization research has debunked this out-of-date myth. To produce the highest quality product, we need to balance work with rest and downtime. This workshop will explore nature's cycles, including our own, through a yogic lens. Learning to ride our individual circadian rhythms optimizes our performance quantity and quality. We will learn a number of micro-rest and nervous system reset practices that can be done anywhere throughout the day. You will come away from this presentation with tools to help you reach your highest potential—including a permission slip to rest.
