Wrestlers are guided to adopt a process-oriented focus rather than being outcome-driven. They learn to recognize moments of incoherence, use simple HeartMath® tools to shift into Heart-Brain Coherence, and apply these techniques during practice and matches. This approach helps athletes cultivate emotional resilience, maintain presence under pressure, and access flow states consistently, building skills that support long-term development and sustainable growth.
