Atrendia Streaming Techniques (AST) is a set of techniques or methods of working that puts you in front of the wave so that you can operate by design rather than by default. By taking a proactive stance you no longer fight through your daily challenges, you develop a flow that first relieves then calmly regulates the previously bursting dam. Pressure and frustration are replaced with elegance and effectiveness. You are in command; you are not commanded.

Imagine a river, that over time, has carved out a repetitive snake-like pattern through miles of terrain. With each passing decade the river etches the pattern deeper into the bedrock beneath.  Just like a river, we too form habits that get more and more ingrained, and even if we are conscious on some level that some of our patterns are not healthy or helpful, the burden of changing them feels as hopeless as trying to change the path of a millennia-old river

If we tried to straighten each curve all at once we would surely fail in frustration.  The key to making sweeping changes in our lives must start with a great desire that becomes an intention that is fortified and nurtured until, one day, it is realized.  Even if it begins as a mental process, just as controlled breathing is integral to meditation, the intention only reaches fruition through repetitive physical activity;

AST is predicated on the idea that the most effective way to achieve positive sustainable results is by continuously striving for flow through the removal of thresholds, physical or mental, anchored by repetitive physical processes, which provide the comfort of stability and reliability.  If we are to straighten out or streamline our river we must embrace change.  In order to embrace change we must pro-act and not re-act.  Change is our friend if we guide it and our enemy when we are at its mercy. Removing barriers guides or pulls a river in a desired direction.  Redirecting or pushing the river with sheer brute force takes a hundred times the resources and often ends up in failure.

AST is about pulling, not pushing; working incrementally and appropriately, not forcefully; acting at the right time, not prematurely or too late; planning, rather than leaving even the small details to chance.

Each one of us has a river that we follow.  We can not suddenly change the course of our rivers, but we can slowly improve our situation by removing the barriers to small successes; and over time, we can increase the flow, decrease friction (stress) and embrace change to the point where many small successes have indeed changed the course of your river and seemingly by intention alone.
