À propos de cet audio

Michael Jordan credits George Mumford with transforming his on-court leadership of the Bulls, helping Jordan lead the team to six NBA championships. Mumford also helped Kobe Bryant, Andrew Bynum, and Lamar Odom and countless other NBA players turn around their games. A widely respected public speaker and coach, Mumford is sharing his own story and the strategies that have made these athletes into stars in The Mindful Athlete: The Secret to Pure Performance. His proven, gentle but groundbreaking mindfulness techniques can transform the performance of anyone with a goal, be they an Olympian, weekend warrior, executive, hacker, or artist.

Mumford's deeply moving personal story is unforgettable. A basketball player at the University of Massachusetts (where he roomed with Dr. J, Julius Erving), injuries forced Mumford out of the game he loved. The meds that relieved the pain of his injuries also numbed him to the emptiness he felt without the game and eventually led him to heroin. After years as a functioning addict, Mumford enrolled in Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program, and made meditation, on and off the cushion, the center of his life. He kicked drugs, earned a master's degree in counseling psychology and began teaching meditation to inmates and others.

When Michael Jordan left the Chicago Bulls to play baseball in 1993, the team was in crisis. Coach Phil Jackson, a long-time mindfulness practitioner, contacted Dr. Kabat-Zinn to find someone who could teach mindfulness techniques to the struggling team - someone who would have credibility and could speak the language of his players. Kabat-Zinn led Jackson to Mumford and their partnership began. Mumford has worked with Jackson and each of the eleven teams he coached to become NBA champions. His roster of champion clients has since blossomed way beyond basketball to include corporate executives, Olympians, and athletes.

I had no idea how the mind plays the largest part of being successful at sports or other life experiences. I wanted to bring my game to a higher level and after two months my game has changed dramatically. I listen almost daily as I get more and more into the mindset of a high performance athlete. Use it for pregame mindset or meditating prior to sleeping or starting your day. I can't stop listening.

Can't stop listening

Absolutely amazing read. So much truth to understanding why thought hinders performance, action and ultimately achievement.

The lense of sport is a microcosm of life, even if you aren’t an athlete, there is a lot in this book that lends itself to understanding how to be successful by becoming conscious.

True to the title.

Wow George certainly knows what he is talking about and the knowledge to back it up. A great book everyone should read and follow. Definitely going to recommend to my 20 year old son. You can’t go wrong here.

Always follow a winner
