Please take the time to read this amazing self testimonial and incredibly inspiring story of mental health and the effects it can have.

This article was written by Ben Meisner, who I had the pleasure of working with while studying in Springfield MA. I was the Sport Psychology Consultant for two seasons with AIC.
I wish I could have done more for him then, but I am so happy to hear that he finally reached out and received the support he needed.

All the best in the future Meis

talked a bit about the mental components of sport and life in general on this podcast. This old saying that any task is 80% mental and 20% physical is an inaccurate blanket statement for all performers. I obviously believe that there is a very significant aspect of any performance that is mental. However, I am also a strong believer in the individual differences we all possess. For some, their performance my be more physically demanding. While other may feel the mental or emotional straign more so. With that said, I would have to somewhat agree with Mr. Sonnen by saying that all athletes and performers must be aware of how mental/emotional/physical/biological their performance is. Only then can you know exactly what you need to work on and develop to be at your best.
