These videos recap the Mindful Peak Performance course delivered to Glamorgan County cricket team. Use these and the accompanying meditations to support your personal and professional life, improving performance and mental wellbeing.
WEEK 1: HOW TO TRAIN YOUR MIND
This video shows you how to train your mind to become more focused and clear, as well as understand the essential training principle in meditation practices: just like the physical body, you can train your mind to develop "mental muscle mass" to improve your performance and mental wellbeing levels.

WEEK 2: PREVENTING OVERTHINKING
We all experience overthinking from time to time. It can particularly show up as judgemental thoughts about our training or performance, which then prevents us from switching off. This video shows you how to deal with overthinking to create more calm and composure in your life.
Use this 10 minute focus meditation to prevent overthinking in your life
WEEK 3: EMOTIONAL RESILIENCE
Authentic emotional resilience is about being able to perform at your best during challenging times while, importantly not blocking how you feel. A daily meditation practice creates space to build genuine mental strength, prevent burnout, and keep a consistent level of performance despite challenges that life throws up.
Try this 3 minute setbacks meditation to build emotional resilience in the face of challenges
WEEK 4: ACCESSING FLOW STATES
As athletes, flow states are the optimum mindset where you're not thinking about your performance, you're naturally in flow with no mental distractions. Meditation practices where you train your mind to be present, however you feel and whatever's going on, naturally support your access to flow states.
