TRANSFORMINGSelf

How do we transform ourselves?

Do you know enough about modern brain research, nutritional information, movement practices and other modalities for creating Peak Performance?


Creating a New Paradigm

Using Peak Performance Practices will enable quantum leaps in Performances.

“Faith is to believe what you do not see, and the result of that faith is to see what you believe!” ~ Augustine of Hippo


The Paradigm Challenge

The results of the rooting experiment challenge a basic assumption of science that everything happens through interaction or mutual exchange. “Energy cannot be created or destroyed.” Is a law of physics which is based on this assumption. This is a four dimensional assumption about a multidimensional universe, which limits our perception and the discovery of our own potential. Einstein said that we can only see what we believe we can see. He recognized that our pre-established beliefs limit or precede discovery, relative to the situation and perspective of the observer.
