Why does a wildland Firefighter want the Heart-Fire Method?

Going through a C faller recert recently, I put all of the mindset tools together I know and this is my story. I have been a C faller since 2013 and I have tested in Region 4, Region 6, and Region 1. Until the national saw program every time you moved forest or regions you had to recert. I always got hung up on the evaluators, I would get nervous, I would mess up my cuts and pass by the skin of my teeth.

I would be shaking by the first cut with absolute fear that I was going to fail. Probably because my first cert my evaluator was failing people for untied boot laces... Fuck man really?? This week, I did the cutting hypnosis a few times. I visualized my cuts and practiced in my mind for a few mornings for about 2 hours total just practicing my cuts, my size up, and confidence.

During the cert I used a 3 part breath technique right before my double facecut, I used my NLP anchors (which are like 100 memories of perfectly cut trees in a button on my knuckle) and then I visualized my cuts exactly as I talked about with the evaluators.

I used the breathe, anchor, visualize right before my cuts

It was the easiest, most confident c cert I have ever completed. My cuts were perfectly adequate. My double face cut came right out with ease and the 40'' buck skin pondo went where I wanted it too. I had no shaky nerves, completely relaxed with no fear. A fucking miracle!

If you want to learn more about the breath, anchor, and visualize technique for peak performance during chainsaw operations, or any fire operations, let's talk!

I know you all have your anchor on the line but do you have an anchor for your mind???

The Integrative Leadership Coaching Process


Mind

First, you take control of your own mind, your thoughts, the media you choose to consume, conversations with which you engage, the music you listen to, and the books you read. This includes how often you practice meditation and how well you process the information you receive from the outside world.

Body

Then, you will begin a regiment of self-care focusing on the air you breathe, the water you drink, and the food you eat. This also includes the relationships you cultivate and the emotions you feel on a daily basis.

Spirit

Lastly, you will create an alliance between yourself, your higher-self and the Infinity-Fire (Divine Energy) through guided meditations.

Through the Integrative Leadership coaching process, you will learn how to:

  • Use your mind to visualize your chainsaw cuts, your repel, your jump

  • Read peoples physiology so you can build rapport, sell your ideas and advance your career faster

  • Create anchors for your mind, which means you have instant access to any state of being you want so you can be calm, centered, and balanced on the fireline

  • Use breath-work to change your physiology and psychology instantly

  • Use a protection meditation to set energetic boundaries and learn to ground your body

  • Take ownership of everything in your life through Heart-Fire Embrace

  • Use guided meditation to connect with divine light and bring that light into your body for healing your mind, body, and spirit

  • Activate your Heart-Fire so you can listen to your gut, heart, and mind which means you expand your consciousness to encompass your entire environment so you can gain clarity on the fireline and improve safety to a whole new level

  • Use this clarity to look through the past and gain all of the lessons you weren’t ready to receive from your struggles through Heart Learning

  • Discover how to sense danger in a whole new way so you can stay on track and move toward your task, purpose, and end-state with a higher safety margin

  • To sense nourishment on all levels of life so you can sustain your journey toward soul purpose

  • To put all of these tools together with the five principles of success to create Heart-Confidence and Heart-Certainty

The end state — You will be guided by your own Heart-Fire communications from the Infinity-Fire which means you will have the tools to become the most powerful leader, reach peak performance on demand, and have a mindset that is unstoppable.

All you have to do is listen to your heart, check the path with your gut, and get to work.
