This quote from Ken Ravizza is spot on!

Athletes often try to adjust elements within their performance, like emotional control or regulation, but neglect to work on control outside of sport.

Learning to enhance self-awareness will assist an athlete in understanding more about themselves and how they respond to certain environments and triggers. Getting that data can then help them learn more about how to self-regulate and what doesn’t work for them.

Negative self-talk isn’t just mental. It impacts us physically as well. When individuals speak negatively to themselves, their brain’s stress response kicks in, making it harder to focus and perform under pressure.

Injured athletes- this post is for you!

As I was preparing for compartment syndrome surgery I was reminded that this process isn’t just physical—it’s also mental!

The time leading up to surgery can leave an athlete experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions!

I found that as I was preparing for surgery I was utilizing many of the same mental strategies that I share with athletes for performance. The key here is that they were used proactively, just like for performance!

These performance psychology strategies can help athletes become more mindful and present during a time when they may feel like a lot is outside of their control.

Read this post to learn more about these strategies.
