If you find it hard to manage stress, Olivia Mead, Founder and CEO of YogaShield® Yoga For First Responders® (YFFR), is here to help you. Olivia will teach us about flow state and mindfulness through yoga and the importance of proactive resilience training for first responders. Also, she will introduce us to the Cyber Academy App which offers short, on-demand classes training in tactical breath work, physical drills, and resetting the neurological system.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why yoga is not just about stretching and chilling out;
• Why do we find ourselves, especially first responders, stressing out in bed over the stupidest thing or the previous call we had;
• What's the toll on the body and mind when your nervous system is always in heighten level;
• How does yoga help us to enter the "flow state of the mind" and what does it do with our nervous system;
• Why proper breathing is important and how to make it a habit
