| Publisher Description: Every athlete experiences twinges of doubt, fear, self-consciousness, frustration and distraction. If yours last for moments, hours, or even days, here's good news: practicing proven mental skills can help you master the mental game of sport-and in the process, have you enjoying your game more than you ever thought possible. Mental skills training seeks to teach the already high-performing athlete how to use the mind as skillfully as the body in responding to the challenges of any demanding sports activity. Based on the principles of ACT - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy- this book takes you through a series of easy to understand exercises to help you explore what truly motivates you-what fires you up to push for excellence-and then create an action plan that will fuel that fire and sustain your passion for your game. |
