Soak Away the Effects of Stress in a Hot / Cold Immersion - Without Having to Go to the Artic!9/21/2023  By Performance Lifestyle Coach John Allen Mollenhauer “JAM” Founder of Regenus Center
However much we want to deny it, Excess Stress is an unfortunate part of the human experience, and it can have various effects on our bodies, such as fatigue, inflammation, and a weakened immune system. As most of us juggle external responsibilities that range from work deadlines to family care, we all have stressful times and days that feel overwhelming and deplete our vital energy, giving rise to the added low-grade biological stress of tiredness itself, inflammation, and pain. While hot tubs and traditional saunas often get the spotlight regarding stress relief, ironically, "cold water immersions," traditionally known as "ice baths," or “plunges into a lake ice-opening,” are an overlooked source of recovery from stress, relief, and relaxation (believe it or not) with the added benefits of reducing inflammation and pain.

What is Soul Force? Soul force is your Spirit-driven power, powered by life force energy or vital energy. Countless spiritual and philosophical traditions are built on these two layers of being that exist before who and how you are in the world. Your own experience will support them as well, and when you can activate and harness them as one, your life, energy levels, health and performance, and more will never be the same. They will be forever better.

Let me briefly introduce you to the idea of living a Performance Lifestyle® (PL). A performance lifestyle is for individuals who are driven and aspire to achieve their ambitious goals without burning out, or coping with a hidden downward spiral, that causes many high achievers to sacrifice their health for success. In a Performance Lifestyle, the primary emphasis is staying grounded in what you really are, in the right relationship with who you are, so that you’ve got the highest level of control over how you achieve your goals. Also, making sure your body is regularly recharged, recovered, restored, and rejuvenated with what’s becoming more popularly known as life force energy. You need high levels of life force energy to maintain the health and high performance you need to succeed with good quality of life. Gone are the days when willing yourself through tiredness, exhaustion or fatigue is a smart strategy for performing well.
Adopt the Mindset of An Athlete to Achieve Your Life, Career, or Business Goals Like a Pro6/15/2023

It does not matter if you're into sports or even a fitness enthusiast. When someone says you can do something "like a pro," it means performing tasks or activities with the skill and expertise of a professional. It implies high proficiency and mastery in the how-to aspects of accomplishing an outcome or achieving your goals in your chosen industry field. But what most people, even many very successful people, need to learn is that it also implies proficiency in how you achieve your goals. Like a professional sports athlete, you have to know the game you're playing. Meaning you have to know your industry or "game." But you also need to live in a way that will yield the energy, health, and performance capacities you need to succeed in playing that game well, which is just as important and, in some cases, more.

Do you often feel low on power, sluggish, or face persistent fatigue due to the relentless demand for your time and energy? Most people and I mean 'most people,' suffer from a trailing "sleep" or "energy debt," the chronic lack of recovery that robs your body of its natural life force energy. When you spend more energy than you recuperate and don't allow your body to regenerate, you get caught up in a vicious cycle that reduces your performance and increases your risk of physical and mental health issues.

A Performance Lifestyle is an optimal approach to achieving your goals because you align the way you live with the fundamentals of energy, health, and performance in a lifestyle you can call your own focused on your success. It's a giant leap in the evolution away from the typical unhealthy lifestyle, as it takes the popular fitness lifestyle and traditional healthy lifestyle paradigms to a whole new level.

What Does Your "Achiever Type" Have to Do With Your Lifestyle—Your Energy, Your Overall Health, and Performance? Everything! Over many years, both personally and professionally, I have experienced first-hand how our lack of understanding of human performance has given way to an unhealthy relationship with work and achievement. And then, often desperate attempts to overcome a poor sense of self, fatigue, weight gain, and mental and physical health complications that result from the excessive stress of a flawed approach.

FOR ME, overexertion STARTED EARLY I began working as an entrepreneur at the age of 9. I grew up in a modest, middle-income family, and my parents were pretty frugal. So, I enjoyed the freedom of having my own money. I never thought I would be anything but an entrepreneur and a business owner. By age 19, while going to college, I had not only been running a small business for a decade while going to school, playing three sports, and “growing up,” I had already bought my first gym (open 19 hours per day) and then, by 21, co-founded what would become a chain of gyms. I was a driven achiever, applauded and rewarded for it, but while my friends were just getting started after college, I was facing what felt like a midlife crisis— tiredness, and fatigue.

Excellence originates from having energy, health, and the capacity to perform well without having to burn out or trade one's health for success, which compromises one's ability to live with Excellence. It is sustained when you have developed a high-performance lifestyle or 'HPL.' Not everybody will live a high-performance lifestyle, but anybody can take an HPL from theory to practice to mastery in their own life. If you asked 100 people if they would like to live a life of higher personal or professional achievement, 90+% would likely say YES. Whether they do comes down to how they get there. Do you have a results-only mindset or a mindset focused on a high-performance lifestyle plus the goal-specific actions that result in what you want to achieve? The difference could not be more profound.

Performance Lifestyles So You and Your Team Can Achieve Ambitious Goals, Full Out, Without Burning 🔥 Out or Trading Your Health and Well Being For Success. I want to introduce you to an approach to goal achievement and an ever-better quality of life, even as you age. I’m borrowing a page from the world of athletics, but for his article, understand that the term “athlete,” which goes back to Bible (2 Timothy2:5 and Psalms19:5) and beyond, does not need to evoke visions of grueling preparation for a sporting event. Bill Bowerman of Nike said, “if you have a body, you are an athlete.” So how I would like you to interpret my use of the term “athlete” is as someone who has a lifestyle that enables them to manage their energy, stay healthy and both function and perform at higher levels in life—family, career/business, art, sport, ministry etc. Ok, let’s get into it.
