Harness the Power of Flow

Mastery, creativity, and peak performance happen in the deep now when body, mind, and environment converge. Be here now and we experience flow—an optimal state of heightened awareness and full engagement where we feel better and perform better.

Flow, where champions are made, mountains are scaled and ideas are born. In flow, you lose sense of time, sense of struggle and sense of self.

What if you could find that peak state anytime you wanted? What if you designed your life around flow states?

Join Cara Bradley, body-mind teacher, author, entrepreneur and former pro skater and get to know and experience flow first-hand. Learn strategies to get out of your head and into flow at work and play. In addition you’ll learn the neurophysiology of flow and take-away tools ideal for our fast-paced, quick-changing world.

Shift From Frazzled to Focused

Learn tools to experience how drama drains and focus fuels and how being present is the best way to recharge, feel happier and be more productive at work and home.

Energy Bank Account: Is Yours Full or Empty?

Mastery, creativity, and peak performance happen when body and mind converge in the deep now. Tap into this embodied cognition and you experience flow—an optimal state of consciousness where you feel better and perform better.

Flow amplifies motivation and increases pattern recognition and productivity. Common traits of flow are the sense of selflessness, timelessness, effortlessness and richness. Best of all, flow leaves clues in our brains, physiology and neurochemistry. In other words, harnessing flow is predictable.

Athletes, artists and great thinkers have learned to harness flow during high consequence activities, in rich environments and when deeply embodied. And so can you. What if you could harness flow anytime you wanted? What if you designed your life around flow?

Join Cara Bradley, body-mind teacher, author and former pro skater for answers to these questions and get to know what being in flow

  • Cara provided a wonderful presentation to our North America associate population a few weeks ago. The presentation was very informative and engaging. Almost immediately after the presentation I began receiving positive feedback from associates who had dialed in. The presentation was a great success.

  • I organized an event with Cara to speak to my female colleagues at a global investment bank. Following the event, everyone shared with me how much they appreciated the time with Cara. They thought she had incredible energy and insights on how to be more present and therefore, less distracted and more productive at work and at home. They are looking forward to reading her book and listening to her podcasts for reinforcement and building up the practice of living in the present moment. Personally, I am going to work on less “I need to’s” and be aware of “brain on a stick” - a very interesting concept that Cara shared with us. Cara is cutting edge and so on point. I highly recommend her for engaging with female leaders and professionals in order to provide us practical tools and inspiration to live in the present moment and feel more fulfilled and content, while also being more productive.
