Summary
"In the final race of her college track career, Cara Bradley beat her personal best by a remarkable six seconds. Until then Bradley had been a so-so athlete hampered by pre-race jitters and self-doubt. But on this day Bradley was buoyed by a sense of calm confidence. She set about understanding how she could replicate this experience in every area of life. She has distilled what she found into five practices, three shift strategies, and a series of gut-check reminders for moving out of over-thinking and over-doing and into fully being - alive, calm, powerful. These techniques for stilling busy mind, putting body and mind in sync, and cultivating awareness and strength are simple but require practice and attention, which Bradley coaches readers to apply daily. The reward is what she calls "high voltage living, " the ability to experience what Bradley did on the track not by accident, or in only a few memorable moments but on purpose, every day"--, Provided by publisher
