Description

ACT in Sport: Improve Performance Through Mindfulness, Acceptance, and Commitment Unhelpful thinking can significantly impact your sporting performance and that of those you work with. Athletes often face barriers beyond physical challenges, including anxiety, overthinking, and difficulties with motivation or teamwork. This practical workbook introduces the modern psychological approach of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which has been shown to be effective in improving sports performance. By using ACT, athletes can develop skills such as values-based action, commitment, defusion, mindfulness, and acceptance. The book provides over 20 simple strategies for growth, making it a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their performance. A free-to-download workbook accompanies the book, offering additional support for readers. Written by James Hegarty and Christoph Huelsmann, ACT in Sport is a comprehensive guide to this increasingly popular approach to sports psychology. Foreword by Patrick Smith and Steven C. Hayes adds credibility to this practical and easy-to-use framework.
