    Mindful Performance Enhancement Awareness & Knowledge (mPEAK)

    What is mPEAK?

    mPEAK (Mindfulness, Performance Enhancement, Awareness & Knowledge) is an intensive mindfulness training program designed for anyone seeking to achieve personal and professional goals, improve performance and enhance success. Based on the empirically supported Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, this cutting-edge training program combines the latest brain research related to peak performance, resilience, focus, and “flow” with mindfulness meditation practices and training. Additionally, mPEAK incorporates elements of sports psychology, positive psychology, the latest neuroscientific findings and related research regarding optimal performance into weekly teachings.

    Who should take this course?

    This program was specially designed for athletes, first responders, leaders, entrepreneurs, executives, musicians, dancers, and professionals. Anyone who set big goals, faces consistent challenges or stretches themselves towards excellence is the ideal participant for training in mPEAK. mPEAK is appropriate for beginner and seasoned mindfulness practitioners alike. Previous meditation experience is not necessary to participate, but welcomed.
