TPM Showcase #9
Today’s TPM Showcase goes to a breathwork and mindset training client all the way from the majestic town of Estes Park, Colorado, Aaron Busche!
Hey man, can I sleep on your couch next time I’m in the area?
Aaron is from my hometown of Cedar Falls, Iowa.
He’s a few years younger than me, but we crossed paths and shared the love of hoops back in the day.
We never hung out aside from a couple pick up games where I probably posted his ass up, kidding!
I think Aaron could jump out of the gym, but if I’m wrong, let’s just let him believe he could!
I hadn’t seen Aaron in probably 30 years or so. We ran into each other at a mutual friends gathering in October of last year.
I forgot how funny he was as I found myself laughing a lot when we talked. We’ll keep the content to ourselves. Wink, wink!
He told me he saw what I was doing with the breathing stuff and was digging it.
He also said he wish he lived closer so we could connect on it.
“Well man, let’s zoom it up!”
A few weeks later, and probably a few house sales later (he’s a top notch realtor), we connected and had a couple sessions.
We covered all of the essentials of the nervous system.
The mind, the body, the energies, the story of our stress, the footprint of our past, and the hope for a new path forward.
We talked about scenarios in his life where stress responses occurred.
I asked him to start becoming aware of physical sensations and make mental notes of how he was thinking during those times.
This helps build interoception(the body’s internal awareness system basically).
Creating awareness of his day-to-day realities and coming back to his breath helped him shift stress into rest and mindfulness.
Instructing Aaron was like teaching your favorite student!
He was very poised to dig in right away and apply the breath work and mindset strategies to his life.
His inquisitive nature led to meaningful questions and quick applications to his life.
As a standard when I work with my clients, I love and value connecting with them on the phone and having an open door policy about questions, concerns, or sharing successes.
Let this be a lesson for all of us… be present, authentic, and in the NOW with all of our interactions with people.
Aaron projects great energy in any room he’s in and I’m very pleased to have shared this experience with him.
Aaron had this to say about his experience:
“TPM has truly been a blessing in my life! The benefits of daily practice are immeasurable!
When you’re ready to level up, reach out and get something scheduled with TPM! Don’t wait, the time is now! It will help shift your mind to positively impact your entire world! Priceless!”
Please join me in giving Aaron an elevated golf clap for his dedication to taking control of his mindset and using the breath to enhance his life!
I’m so proud of you, man!
I have really enjoyed getting to know you a bit through our time together!
Keep taking them cold showers, and if you’re ever in the area, let’s get in the Cedar River!
GO WIN!!!
