Mindset Meditations
A guide to meditation
So much of your meditation practice will be about finding stillness. Within that stillness you can hear better, you can think better, you can clear some of the fog from your mind. The trick is to be open to the process. Maybe you do 5 mins at a time to start. There is no one way to do this. You just have to start.

Permission to Rest
We so often get caught up in doing more that we forget to do less. Rest and recovery are often the hardest thing for high achievers, but also the most necessary. Take a moment and remind yourself to rest.
What is
The power of seeing things as they are and how we handle to down time of the holidays.
Pre Competition Visualization
Use this meditation to prepare to compete. We talk about visualization as a tool to see what's ahead, but the power is really in your ability to FEEL what's ahead and prepare yourself accordingly. Best to do the day prior to competition.
Discipline is peace
When we let discipline spiral into a shame cycle we miss the power of it to define our peace. Realign with your purpose and find the grace and humility to love yourself enough to keep going.
Box Breathing Meditation
Box breathing is a tool that can be used to calm the mind in times of stress or in times of added pressure. Use it. Practice it. Make it part of your arsenal.
Why knowing what you want starts with knowing what you DON'T want
If you don't know what you want and why, then you'll eventually find yourself in a place that you don't recognize. Do the work of narrowing your focus by understanding what you will and won't tolerate.
When perfection is the lowest standard
Why "progress" is actually the highest standard you can have and how you move forward even when things are hard or seem out of reach.
Celebrating Your Wins
Way too often as athletes we shy away from acknowledging when things go well. We think it might jinx us. But what if I told you celebrating your wins is one of the most important things you can do. And it's time to give yourself permission.

Progress over perfection every time
Taking the time to remind ourselves that it's not the last blow, but all those that came before that make the difference. Progress over perfection every single time!
>>5 min meditation
Why Not Me?
What happens when you remove the barriers around who you think you are and are not? What happens when you stop looking around for other players to lead and start to saying 'why not me' instead?

What it means to surrender and access your full potential.

The Power of Proactivity
15 min mindset meditation
"All fall down"
We all do this in some way; attempt to take on more than we can carry - either with the stories we carry, the people we love, or the obligations we feel compelled to meet. But what happens when you take on only what you need? How much space do you create when you leave behind the things that hold you back?
Chasing Excellence
Focusing on the long term helps you to create discipline in the short term. Who do you aspire to be and what are you willing to sacrifice to get there?
