Emily Fletcher – founder of Ziva Meditation – notes “Stress is actually keeping you from performing at the top of your game.
“I tend to work with a lot of high performers.
“My CEO clients will say ‘Emily, my stress is the thing that gives me my cutting edge, that’s the thing that keeps me, you know, competitive and in the game’ – and my actors will say to me, ‘Emily, I need my stress…this is where my art comes from.’
“But here’s the news – stress is not helping you in the performance department.
“As a matter of fact, stress makes you stupid.”
She adds, Meditation is "a tool to help de-excite your nervous system & get rid of stress, which is going to help you perform at the top of your game...I found meditation during my 10-year career on Broadway.”
