The Performance Web
HPI’s signature program utilises Scientific Holism ™,
viewing and treating the brain and body as a complex ecosystem to boost productivity
& engagement and facilitate improved work-life balance. It is a stimulating blend
of cutting-edge Neuroscience, Psychology and Physiology and contains multiple practical
applications that and are delivered in an experiential manner. The components of
The Performance Web are:
Mind Mastery
Energy Management
Movement for Performance
Nutrition for Performance
Harvesting Happiness
Shift Happens : the Neuroscience of Behaviour
Change
Mind Mastery
- When are we responsible for our own actions and when are we in the grip of biological
forces beyond our control? This section will investigate how the human brain
is sculpted by genes, shaped by early experience, modulated by hormones, and otherwise
influenced to produce a range of behaviors with a variety of health implications.
A range of practical tools are provided to enable participants to win back control
of their minds.

Energy Management
- Stress and time management are the traditional focus of employee wellness programs.
However, a much greater impact on an individual’s performance is how they manage
their energy. Our energy levels contribute to everything we do and energy is the
fundamental currency of performance. This workshop teaches employees about the physiological
components of energy and gives practical tips on how to work together with their
body’s natural circadian and ultradian rhythms. By doing so, individuals will learn
how to become an ‘Executive Athlete’, maintaining a high level of performance and
energy throughout the day..

Movement for Performance
- The modern western world is engaged in an ‘incidental conspiracy’ to make us fat
and unhealthy. Labour-saving devices permeate every aspect of our lives and the
human genome has not adapted as yet (and will not for many millennia). This section
teaches participants how to evaluate their lifestyle and gives a host of practical
tips that will facilitate better health, greater mental focus and improved energy
levels..

Nutrition for Performance
- Consumers are constantly bombarded by a plethora of conflicting and confusing messages
regarding nutrition and much of it is not scientifically based. This workshop teaches
participants the fundamentals of sound nutrition and simplifies the whole eating
process by identifying ‘above’ and ‘below’ the line nutrition. Rather than focusing
on optimal nutrient amounts (which have never been scientifically proven), it focuses
on which foods are essential to proper function of our brains, body systems and
cells. It also give strategies for combating the single biggest cause of a plethora
of chronic diseases – chronic systemic inflammation.

Harvesting Happiness
- This seminar is a journey from Aristotle to Seligman which looks at both the history
and recent scientific advancements in the study of happiness. It covers the main
components of happiness and reveals how the traditional Western approach of focusing
on hedonic happiness is the architect of many mental health problems. Through an
analysis of the studies of the emerging Positive Psychology movement, participants
will walk away with both a greater understanding of happiness as well as a number
of clinically evaluated tools for harvesting happiness.

Shift Happens : the Neuroscience of Behaviour Change
- Recent Neuroscience experiments have shown that the part of your Brain that is activated
when you hear a compelling argument for change is different from the brain
areas activated when you actually intend to make a change (which match areas
that are active when you adopt a new behavior). HPI uses a range of validated tools
that help to facilitate activation of these brain areas.
