CONNECTION

Attending my 1st conference this year was both enjoyable and empowering. The genuine connection with and exchange of knowledge and experiences with fellow sport psychology practitioners has lead to a few potential opportunities but more importantly it was such a wonderful experience that has given me the positive energy needed to finish off my CMPC hours.

I mainly work with private clients on a 1to1 basis, which is something I enjoy immensely. However, it can leave you feeling more isolated at times than if I was working with teams or for bigger organisations.

The plan for next year is to attend at least one conference, but being based in the UK, I'm not quite sure it will be AASP again (not that I wouldn't want to).

So my question to you, which conference anywhere in Europe did you particularly enjoy over the last few years?

Which one combines connection with peers, with a good mix of applied sport psychology workshops and research?

Answers below please πŸ™ Thanks 😊

Sport Psychologist's Toolbox-17

High performance that is sustainable requires mental & physical wellbeing

As mental performance coaches we can and should understand what our client's social support network looks like. The better social support is, the better our clients are supported and able to perform

We can and should talk about sleep hygiene. Probably the most underrated form of recovery

We can and should discuss how to manage stress and its effect on performance.

We can and should talk about recovery and being comfortable with not pushing through every session and helping the performer develop an understanding of when to push and when it's OK to hold back so they can confidently make that decision.

We need to touch on how important a flexible approach to training can be to avoid mental & physical burnout

We're more than just mental skills coaches. Wellbeing -> performance

SPORT PSYCHOLOGY TOOLKIT - 16

Following on from last week's post about solution focused consulting and going back to my post about transitions that performers experience...

What do you think?

"Stop trying to be what you used to be & focus on what you want to become"

It is natural to go through various emotions when we experience change, more so when it is outside of our control like an injury, early retirement, being cut from a squad or team or being demoted.

And those feelings are valid!

However at some stage making the next step towards a "new future" is key for us unless we want to become stuck.

Thoughts?

ENDURANCE ATHLETES!

Do you want to become a better athlete?

Is there untapped potential?

Not all your training needs to be physical

I'm a big proponent of adding strength work to your routine... yes physical one... but don't forget about mental strength!

What about training your mind?

I help endurance athletes to

- Get out of feeling burnt out from training/life
- Balance demands of sport & life
- Be less self-critical
- Grow their self-confidence
- Revive their love for the sport
- Find that lost MAJOR
- Be less all or nothing
- Use pre-race nerves to their advantage
- Make goal setting easier
- navigate through the "mental" side of injury
- Come back stronger from setbacks
- shift their focus to what's required for success
- Be ok with not always doing more and still succeed
- navigate those big transition periods in their (athlete) life

I have limited availability for mindset/sport psychology sessions at a reduced fee whilst completing my full HCPC Sport and Exercise Psychology accreditation.

Sport Psych Toolbox -15

Sometimes performers can benefit from shorter, more immediate interventions.

Taking a more purely solution focused approach can be the answer here.

A focus on the here and now and what needs to be tackled means that this is a more short term and goal oriented approach.

Rather than looking backwards the performer identifies what their preferred outcome is. They then are asked to focus on the existing resources and the skills they already have and this encourages them to visualize their success and take the steps necessary towards their goal(s).

Hence, this approach is more future, solution and strength based.

Sport Psychology Toolbox -14

As humans and performers we always tell ourselves stories...
It's more than just negative self-talk..
We convince ourselves that we can't, shouldn't, won't ever be able to or have failed... and construct a story (reasons) around it..

How can we make sure that these little stories don't become stories that define us?

- Self-awareness: Really listen to yourself

- Taking a minute, slow down, stop and think

- Is what I'm telling myself really true. Fact or fiction?

- Can you find reasons and explanations that counter a negative story you're constructing?

Do you experience this yourself?

Glad i decided to go to this year's conference... cause Montreal is a beauty

Multicultural, bilingual, great food, great culture, great sports teams and good vibes. Whilst I made sure I did a bit of touristing every day, there's something much more to see.

So, hoping to be back one day and do more exploring around Quebec πŸ™ πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

A trip of two parts

I'm not sure if I had ever gone to Montreal if not for the conference this week

So half the week I spent at a conference, meeting loads of colleagues and fellow alumni, faculty, and current students.

A big part of these conferences is networking, and mainly working as a self-employed consultant makes these spaces even more important. Stay tuned for some opportunities coming from these meetings...

There were some excellent workshops, panel meetings, and lectures on offer ... widening the horizon. 🀞 for AASP in 2026

Separate post to come about Montreal... which is well worth a visit

Sport Psychology Toolbox-13

Managing Expectations

At worst expectations both ours and other people's (coaches, parents, spectators etc) can really weigh us down and impact our performance, motivation,self-worth, self-confidence and how we feel others perceive us.

As sport psychologists we can support our athletes in managing their expectations better by amongst other things

- Developing more realistic, process rather than outcome driven goals

- Focusing on what's truly in the athlete's control: great preparation, best effort on the day and attitude

- A present moment focus - mindfulness. Less distraction and a focus on what needs to be done in the here and now

- Self reflection practices overtime allow you to recognise which expectations and states of mind are less helpful for your performance

What else has helped you or your athletes manage expectations?
