The Power of Mindfulness: (Module 1, Part A)

Abstract

We welcome you to a journey of learning a new way of using a mindfulness approach (and self-compassion when you need it) to improve your experience in sport and ultimately your performance. We have found over the years that bringing mindfulness, which really is simply being present and accepting of (or tolerating or being interested in) whatever is showing up, can make the difference in performance. With such an approach, you are open to actually being present to what you are doing, instead of being lost in regret of mistakes or lost in anxiety of what the future might hold (e.g., not getting selected; not starting; not making the team).
