Trust Falls That Fix This

To build a truly resilient team, you must train their physiology — not just their morale.

The Poseidon Ascend Method

Nervous System Training for High-Stakes Environments

Our corporate programs are not about motivation — they are about regulation. We use evidence-based breathwork protocols born from elite freediving to give your team direct, measurable control over their stress response, focus, and cognitive function.

Led by world-record-holding freediver and performance coach Tavi Castro, these sessions are structured, scientific, and immediately applicable to the pressures of the modern workplace.

The Program

What Your Team Will Learn

01

Nervous System Regulation

Consciously shift from sympathetic activation (fight-or-flight) to parasympathetic control (rest-and-digest) on demand — in meetings, negotiations, or under deadline pressure.

02

CO₂ Tolerance Training

Systematically raise the body’s CO₂ threshold — the primary driver of the panic response — to increase resilience under stress and pressure.

03

Focus & Clarity Protocols

Utilize specific breathing patterns to enhance cognitive function, sharpen focus, and improve decision-making clarity under load.

04

HRV Optimization

Coherent breathing entrains heart rate variability — a key biomarker of adaptability and recovery — improving both performance and sleep quality.

05

State Control Under Load

Learn to access calm, energy, or focus on demand. Your team leaves with a practical toolkit for managing their internal state in any environment.

06

Recovery & Resilience

Controlled hormesis through exhale holds and breath retention accelerates recovery and builds long-term physiological resilience — without overtraining.
