Awake Athlete: A Mind-Training Guide to Optimize Performance in Sport and Life with Jess Gumkowski
Manage episode 389673447 series 1458561
What if the key to peak performance lies not just in physical strength but in the intentional integration of breath, mind, and authentic living? In her new book, "Awake Athlete," mindset coach Jess Gumkowski offers a recipe for mental health that seamlessly integrates activity and awareness for sustained embodied engagement.
Jess shares some incredible insights into where the intersection of mind and body becomes the gateway to sustained flow states and optimized performance. From conscious breathing practices to the art of living against the grain and "wise selfishness," our conversation navigates how to redefine your approach to endurance sports.
I feel ready to breathe deeper this season and I hope you find the same inspiration.
Here are some key takeaways:
- Meditation, breathwork, and mindfulness practices can help connect the mind and body and lead to greater calmness and performance.
- It's important to surrender to life's challenges and to open up to receiving help from others rather than trying to do everything alone.
- The ego is a tool that can be used for good when tamed, rather than letting it isolate us through comparison and lack mentality.
- Living against the grain means following your inner guidance and talents despite obstacles and what others think.
- There can be a "wise selfishness" to achievement when the goal is to serve others through sharing one's gifts and talents.
