Benefits of Meditation for Athletes
To perform at your best, especially in high pressure situations, you need to have laser focus. The type of focus where you are so engrossed in the activity that everything else vanishes. You seamlessly and automatically make plays and filter irrelevant information from the relevant. These optimal states of consciousness are referred to as flow states by researchers. And the key driver of flow states is focus. This is why meditating is arguably the best mental training for athletes.
