"Living With The Wind At Your Back" with Dr. David Shaner (Part 2)

In this episode we continue our conversation with Dr. Shaner on the different states of awareness or bodymind awareness. We discuss which of these different modes of awareness promote peak performance. We talk about Dr. Shaner’s teacher Tohei Sensei and how he could observe and predict performance based on someone’s disposition before they performed. We then venture into the evolutionary basis of learning and behavioral change and what we are up against as a species when we want to truly change our behavior. We talk about what peak performance means in our relationships with others and how we can use these states of awareness to get along with each other in these polarizing times. It turns out it is all about performing at our best in all areas of our lives including talking with, agreeing with, and disagreeing with others. When you engage others, Is your gaze open and broad or is it myopic and small? We then go through some of the exercises in the book, Living With The
Wind At Your Back and discuss how cultivating these recommended “habits” will help you improve in every way. Here is Dr. Shaner's TEDX talk and demonstration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyBEIx7fCfY
