Something I really love about Mindfulness training for optimizing performance is that it develops the skillfulness to get out of your head and into your body.

Optimal performance,
intuition,
flow,
are generated from shifting focus out of the head into holistic-mind-body- spirit engagement in the present moment!

Feel and focus baby!!
