How To Master Mindfulness

How To Master Mindfulness

2:30 - why sports psychology as a profession 5:52 - use fear and failure as a compass 9:35 - maladaptive vs adaptive perfectionism 13:50 - support vs challenge coaching style 16:55 - is proving someone wrong the wrong mentality? 18:51 - developing the why with athletes - mission, purpose and philosophy 23:27 - building on flow state to capitalize on the present moment 36:55 - rule of 3 on process to outcome 41:47 - ideal state of awareness and performance out of 10 46:45 - peak your mindfulness training 57:30 - being comfortable confronting your challenges 1:09:07 - staying neutral in a team setting and independently 1:16:40 - what is 2nd floor all about? Marek is in the pursuit of mastering the mental game. As a mental performance consultant, Michael Gervais says: There are 3 things you can train; your mind, your body, and your craft. But too often we neglect how vital our mind is for our performance. Marek helps people train their minds for peak performance, whatever performance that may be! Growing up as an athlete, Marek thought he was technically decent enough, but his mental game was always lacking. He didn't have the resources to tackle the persistent mental barriers. He took it upon himself to get to the bottom of it and study the mind and performance, which led to two masters degrees in sport and exercise psychology. He is also a certified mental performance consultant with the Canadian Sport Psychology Association (CSPA). Currently, Marek is working with a number of different individuals and teams from a variety of sports and other performance domains.
