Happy New Year everyone! In 2023, I am hoping to grow my mental performance business. If you know any athletes looking to improve upon the mental aspect of sport, feel free to send them my way. I have a plethora of experience and knowledge across a variety of sports.

To become mentally tougher, you need to increase your tolerance for physical and mental discomfort. The main way to do this is by putting yourself in uncomfortable situations and pushing through them.

[Katie Cunningham @KCunninghamMPC]

Excited to officially launch my Mental Performance Consulting company “Move Your Mind Mental Performance.” I help athletes across all sports on improving upon the mental aspect of performance. If you know any athletes that could benefit send them my way!

Parents – Do not build your happiness around your kid’s athletic performance. If you get in a bad mood because they played bad, take a break from the game. Your kid needs to have tough performances to learn, not have great performances to make you feel good.

@quernzy Thank you!!!

Trust. The. Process.

Be patient, but not lazy.

Be committed, but don't rush it. No hacks, tricks, shortcuts to being your best.

Take the time it takes, so it takes less time.

When we start to do the work in therapy, we often realize how much the others in our lives are NOT doing the work.

[Simone Biles @Simone_Biles]

the outpouring love & support I’ve received has made me realize I’m more than my accomplishments and gymnastics which I never truly believed before. 🤍

[Katie Cunningham @KCunninghamMPC]

It’s going to be so interesting to see how this might impact the athletes mental performance without any spectators. For some, it may help in freeing distractions but for others it may have a negative impact.

[#Tokyo2020 @Tokyo2020]

In light of the state of emergency implemented in Tokyo, it has been decided at a five-party meeting today that no spectators will be allowed into any venues in Tokyo during the Olympic Games.

This is insane! Disc Golf goes hard

[Disc Golf Pro Tour @DiscGolfProTour]

Just plain crazy. James Conrad throws it in from 247ft for birdie to push the @PDGA Disc Golf World Championship into a Playoff. #PDGAWorlds #SCTop10 @SportsCenter @espn @ESPNAssignDesk

McBeth and Conrad are playing off right now. Watch live here: https://t.co/P2hGISEaDQ

How can we break down the stigma of mental health & better support athlete mental wellness? AASP explores definitions of mental health, prevalence of mental health conditions among athletes & resources to aid athlete mental wellness in our #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth infographic.

When I was little, it was the most boring thing to spend a Saturday afternoon watching Golf. Here I am years later excited to watch @TheMasters on tv. Oh how the tables have turned. 🏌️‍♂️

This UCLA v Gonzalo game is insane.

My pillars of recovery:
1. Sleep Well
2. Move Well
3. Eat/Hydrate Well
4. Think Well (self-talk, productive thoughts, mindfulness)
5. Laugh (A lot)

Which areas of recovery are you dominating? Which need improvement?

THREAD FOR DICK HOYT
Dick Hoyt died today. He was so nice to me when I started writing about heroes. So here is his story: When Dick and Judy Hoyt’s son was born with cerebral palsy, unable to walk or talk, the doctors told them to just “put him away.”
No, they decided.
