The Science Behind Inner Mastery: How Elite Leaders Train Their Minds with Joey Klein
Joey Klein, who trains Fortune 500 executives and elite athletes, teaches that your daily emotional weather isn't a reaction to your life, it's a habit your nervous system learned and can retrain.
▶ Watch the full episode with Joey Klein for deeper context on how to approach these questionsWhat You Wake Up To
Forget how your morning looks from the outside. Before you check the phone or speak to anyone, what's the first emotional weather actually there, the feeling under the routine?
It Started Long Ago
Joey says these feelings got trained in before you had words for them. When you think back, where and when did you first learn to feel this way?
It's Mine To Own
Pick a recent time you got angry, anxious, or low. Joey's first step is ownership: the feeling isn't caused by the other person or the event, it's your trained reflex firing. What were you quietly expecting that didn't happen, that you never actually told them you wanted?
The Cost Of Leaving It
If you keep waking up to this same feeling for the next ten years, never retraining it, what does it quietly cost your health, your relationships, your sense of who you are?
Train The Breath
Joey's actual tool: relax head to toe, tongue on the roof of your mouth, a small smile, then inhale through the nose for four, hold, exhale for four, hold, breathing into your belly. When tomorrow will you do one quiet round of this, before the day starts?
