I want you to see the product development. Whatever industry I was working with, I would customize the cues so all of their teams could get into a collective flow state, feel the collaboration, be more productive. And that's flow state breathwork.
Oh, you gave me full body chills with that question, John. That's such a great question. Yes. In my book, it's in three parts. And the first part is all about healing.
You need to use hypnobreath work to heal because if you've been numbing out, if you have a big ego, if you have a lot of protective strategies, you can't get into that higher state of clarity because all of that energy is just working on suppressing that ability to access your highest states.
So you have to heal first, and then you can start to make creative connections and discover how your skills and your experiences and your obstacles and then turning those outwards will help you discover your purpose. But what I've also found, there's a bit of a chronological journey that I take people on to discover their purpose, and it starts with healing the past.
But now there will be days when I'm like getting up in the morning and I can't wait to do my flow state breath work. But my partner really pissed me off. Higher states because I'm so mad. And then I'm like, God damn it. I have to breathe on this relationship today instead of doing my strategic planning or my pitch deck or whatever that looks like.
But you have to breathe out the emotion or you can't get it into those states. And sometimes it might be really heavy. Something really intense might come up for me that day and it's another layer. And then I'm a little bit too emotionally rocked to get into that place. But then, of course, the day after that, I'll do a flow state breath work.
And whatever I come up with, whether it's media planning or it's acquisition or it's partnerships or it's influencers, I will get that done. in a fraction of the time I would have paid an agency to do or other people who aren't using breathwork would take to get something done.
That comes with consistency. So I wrote an article about this for Forbes Business Council, and then the chapter is also called Hacking Flow State on Demand. And it's consistently doing this breathwork every single morning, the first 20 minutes of your day. We have way too much conditioning.
We have way too many stories, limiting beliefs, issues from growing up, caregivers, childhood, all of these things that play a prominent role in our lives on a day to day. And so for me, breathwork first thing in the morning is clearing and cleaning the slate. So if you want to be able to get into flow state more regularly, more consistently, then you have to breathe every single morning.
Take the action steps immediately because that's another block to your flow state. If you do a breathwork session and it's send the email and then you come out of it and you're like, oh, well, maybe I'll take that action step later. And then it's the next day. You'll go into breathwork again and you're going to get the same action step. So you've just wasted a day. You've wasted a session.
So not taking the action steps will also block your flow.
Good question. So there's a couple of ways I want to answer this. First, bringing flow state into your teams is, in my opinion, what every single company and what every HR department should be working on doing, because you want your employees to be clear. You don't want them to be stressed and burnt out and not
working at their peak performance so bringing this into your teams just as even a stress release we can customize the sessions in so many different ways i have six months worth of sessions that i can take corporate teams through and it can range from sessions on sales management leadership negotiation there's so many different topics that we can do to help people get into a peak state
Now, in order for it to be really successful, we can't just do the mental clarity and the focus and the creativity sessions. I like to start with those to ease people in. They feel super euphoric after a session. I did one with 300 Deloitte employees online a few years ago and they When we started, I said, how are you guys feeling? And everyone said, burnt out, stressed, tired, overwhelmed.
And 20 minutes later, I said, how are you feeling post-session? Rejuvenated, inspired, excited. Can we do this every week? Oh my God, that was amazing. And I said, what's your next action step? And they said, delegate the task, schedule the meeting. I mean, they had so much clarity coming out of that session.
But there's other sessions that need to be done if we're going to work together over a long term and really make changes within the organization. And those sessions have to be around empathy. They have to be around compassion. And a lot of times there's a really big disconnect between upper management and their employees and their teams because upper management oftentimes feels like
Like they're doing a lot more of the work or they have a lot of pressure on them. And then their teams feel like there's no acknowledgement of work life balance and they need more recognition. So we have to have different teams and different individuals see the perspectives of the other people so that it can be more harmonious within the group and more harmony allows you to be more productive.
A hundred percent. And it reminds me of, I was doing a leadership summit for a group and the CFO came out of the session and he was like,
mean this was so startling for all of us he just goes i just realized why i'm such an to my team and it's because i hate my mother whoa all right well we got some awareness of that massive projection and obviously with that allows him to do a lot of healing and completely changes the dynamic because he's showing up completely different for them and it's something that i find in entrepreneurship as well and even
with my coaches and i know that you'll relate to this especially when you're building a brand and you have a book and you have a podcast and you have a company and you have startups and you're an investor and you've all these things going on and then i'll get an email or i'll get a text message that someone's frustrated with me because i didn't do this xyz for them and in my world view and in my landscape that is the most trivial thing and i can't even believe i've been disrespected that they would waste my time and my energy sending this to me
