Optimising Routines
Illustration of identification of goal states, daily neurochemical expression dynamics, congruent daily routine design strategies, and perfection versus vitality
how it works
The AutonoMe curriculum reconciles our ancient and automatic mental survival mechanisms with the societal structures and functions of the modern world.
Our courses apply modern developments from neuroscience and psychology to provide the healthiest inputs to students’ bodies, especially the little-known inputs that optimise the brain and nervous system.
Our dedicated personal integration support is the true differentiator, in which any student has multiple options to obtain answers to questions, advice, or clarification on any of the content and tools provided in the course.
Confusion is cleared. Mental tail-chasing is eliminated. Proficiency and agency are built. The answers to the questions of “How do I get motivated?”, “How do I get more energy?”, etc., take increasingly confident shape.
Inidivudal empowerment is established.
Why we’re different
The first ever AutonoMe course session, 12 April 2023, between London and Houston, Texas, with Partners Group, a world-class private equity firm.
ONe-and-done is done
Traditional employee and executive performance consulting is well-meaning but broken. Typical content focuses narrowly on turning humans into better workers while ignoring nearly all fundamental topics and inputs of holistic mental health. This content is typically delivered in the form of extremely limited presence (such as one or two group presentations) and worksheets that gradually sink to the bottom of a student’s desk drawer.
Meaningful behavioural change is difficult, and it simply cannot be adequately learned with such a limited amount of engagement. How do we know?
Because the neuroscientific literature shows this to be true.
Resilient adult learning of any kind is often simple but never quick. It takes a process of time, repetition, sleep, and curation of the proper neurochemical mix in the brain to trigger the neuronal change process known as “neuroplasticity”.
We are practitioners of our own lessons, and we utilise this process ourselves for our own learning. We’re so sure of its lasting effects that we teach neuroplasticity as a required course module. It is critical to us that every AutonoMe student understands how our brains learn and becomes proficient in the integration of what we learn, be it cognitive, behavioural, kinetic, emotional, or otherwise. True human potential is not discoverable without this knowledge, nor is it whatsoever existent without the necessary time and conditions for neuroplasticity.
That is why we dedicate three months of flexibly structured and on-demand follow-up integration support of every sentence, tool, and protocol we teach in the curriculum to every student that enrolls.
