Psychology is built on studying people that have disorders,
What are the ways that they think that lead to depression or anxiety?
What are the genetic factors and environmental factors that lead to depression and anxiety?
And then sports psychology is the study of how do the people that perform and live the greatest way we can imagine, how do they use their thinking?
What is their genetic coding that they're maximizing?
And what are the environmental triggers to help them with the behaviors that they're looking for?
So it's a very long way of saying the grades are showing us how, and it's an investment in three to eight minutes, maybe upwards to 20 minutes a day to have the internal experience that you would hope you would want to have for your kids or your teammates or your loved ones.
It's not that hard.
Hala, you have the time.
You probably need somebody in your corner that says, hey, I'm going to do the work with you, okay?
Let's report every day to each other to see if we're actually doing the journaling work, the meditation work, the breath work, the imagery work, the self-talk work, and you just go on a training program.
If you did it, Hala, for like 90 days,
Every day, you train your mind just like you train your body.
Do you go to the gym and outside of Pilates?
It's because you want something from it.
You want a healthy cardiovascular system.
You want healthy musculature.
You want to look and feel a certain way.
All of that, right?
So the same is on the mental side.
