  • Résumé

  • In this episode of the Finding Elevation podcast, host Lisa Thompson discusses the impact of mindfulness and mindset on performance for mountain athletes. She shares how practices like meditation, intention-setting, visualization, and breathwork can transform both climbing ability and overall wellbeing.

    • Research showing meditation physically changes the brain to improve focus and decrease reactivity/fear (00:07:00)
    • Tips for building a meditation practice, starting with just 5 minutes a day (00:21:41)
    • Using mantras and intention-setting to override negative self-talk and reframe challenges (00:29:15)
    • Leveraging visualization to pre-experience difficult sections of a climbing route (00:35:59) 
    • Not ignoring fear but categorizing it and reframing it before moving forward (00:33:24)
