🔍 Are you a coach, parent or athletic director seeking an edge for your student-athletes?

Performance anxiety isn’t a weakness—it’s an opportunity. And tackling it effectively can elevate performance, satisfaction and longevity in sport.

At PsychEdge, our done-for-you Peak Performance framework helps athletes manage meets or game-day nerves by combining evidence-based techniques: mindful breathing, SMARTER goals, self-talk, growth mindset and visualization.

🔑Key takeaway: build and link the skills to form routines at practice, so that they are comfortable to focus on and do in anxiety provoking, high pressure situations.

Let’s help the next generation of athletes perform under pressure—with clarity, resilience, confidence and control.

📣 Student-Athlete Families:

Is your athlete experiencing game-day nerves, forgetfulness during big moments, or a sense of overwhelmment balancing sport + school?

Performance anxiety is very common—and it can be managed by using smart sport psych tools.

At PsychEdge, our Peak Performance course walks athletes through: calming breath work, process goals, positive self-talk, growth mindset, emotional intelligence, and mental imagery.

Here’s a simple tool to try this week:

✅ Before the big event: do at least 8 rounds of Box Breathing (inhale 4s, hold 4s, exhale 4s, hold 4s)

✅ Use a cue word or phrase. “Reset” when the pressure hits. Pair it with a clap and practice together daily in practice.

✅ Before the event, ask yourself, "What can I control?"

✅ After the event, ask yourself or journal, "What are 3 things I did well? What did I enjoy? What can I do differently next time to improve?

⚽ Game day jitters again?

Does your mind seem to scatter when the spotlight hits? Afraid to mess up?

You’re not alone — and you can tame performance anxiety.

At we use a 5-module system (mindfulness, goals, self-talk, growth mindset, visualization) to help student-athletes go from
freezing up → owning the moment.

💡Tip of the day: Box-breathe (4-4-4-4) before you step out.
Cue phrase: “Focus on the task.”

Talking about mental health is strength, not shame.

Mark Ruffalo has been open about anxiety and depression—proof that honesty fuels connection. His story helps student-athletes see vulnerability as courage.

💡 PsychEdge Tip: Be aware of self-talk. Box or long exhale breathing to regain control and think rationally. Replace irrational thoughts and self-critical thoughts with rational thoughts and support with evidence.

🏁 Chicago Marathon is done — now what?

After crossing the finish line, many runners experience a sudden drop: physical fatigue, emotional flatness, or even post-race blues. That’s normal—and it’s fixable if you have a plan.

In 'The Landing Pad', we explore how many athletes forget to plan for after the event.

💡 PsychEdge Recovery Tip:

✅Keep moving — light walk or stretch with a friend

✅Hydrate & fuel wisely

✅Don’t overschedule — give yourself downtime

✅Plan ahead: sketch a day/week outline you can adapt

💡Recovery is part of performance.

When pressure peaks, strength means knowing when to pause.

Simone Biles’ decision to step back for her mental health redefined resilience and gave student-athletes permission to value mind + body.

💡 PsychEdge Tip: Before practice, name 3 emotions you feel. Awareness brings control.

Mental Health Week reminded us: caring for your mind is caring for performance.

👟 See the Person Beyond the PR — Supporting the Whole Athlete

Athletes thrive when parents and coaches show they value the whole person, not just the results. 🧠💪

📚 In Playing the Long Game (Schimmel & Breeze), https://amzn.to/3J0kI2j collegiate athletes shared how meaningful it was when parents checked in on mental health, identity, and life beyond sport.

Here are 3 powerful phrases that build that foundation 👇

1️⃣ “How are you feeling after that race — physically and mentally?”

2️⃣ “I’m proud of the work you’re putting in, not just the time on the clock.”

3️⃣ “No matter the outcome, you matter way beyond this sport.” OR "I love you no matter what." OR "No matter the outcome, I am proud of you."

These phrases foster:

✔️ Resilience — because they feel supported through ups and downs.

✔️ Perspective — their worth isn’t tied to stats.

✔️ Mental well-being — which is crucial for long seasons and elite competition.

Parents and coaches: when you emphasize the person, you help build athletes who can handle pressure, bounce back, and love their sport for the long haul. 🫶
