How will you benefit from meditating? Meditation will take you to the next level mentally, physically, and emotionally. You can expect to feel more prepared, relaxed, and focused than ever before after meditating. Remember, the body can only do what the mind thinks it can do. What Improvements can I expect from practicing meditation? Some of the improvements you can expect are: fewer or no headaches at all, improved digestion, more energy during the day, less muscle cramps or signs of muscle tightness, increased capacity to concentrate over long periods of time. Does my nutrition affect my meditative potential and is a nutrition plan included? Yes, nutrition is a major component in becoming mentally tougher. When you have the energy and mental balance needed, you can perform at your optimal mental capacity and this means eating and staying hydrated. Feeling tired, anxious, drowsy, or sleepy will not allow you to focus and perform properly. A meal calendar is included as well as recipes you can use to maximize your meditation sessions and have an organized nutrition.

"Table Tennis is 90% Mental, and 10% Physical" "It's All in Your Head" "The Only One that Can Stop You is You" But what exactly does that mean??? Without something concrete, it's difficult for players to understand what it specifically takes to have the correct mental approach and succeed. And rather than have a debate with someone who knows nothing about sports psychology... or read about theories and mental hacks that may or may not work off some random website...why not incorporate a detailed, interactive, and engaging workbook that'll show athletes how specific Sports Psychology concepts directly impact their performance on the ping pong tables? That's exactly what you've found here! Through 10 Dynamic Exercises including topics such as Motivation, Goal-Setting, Thought Suppression, Zones of Optimal Performance, Competitive Anxiety, Coming Back from Injury, Mental Imagery, Self-Talk, Confidence, and Attention...we show athletes how a lack of knowledge in the combination of these concepts creates weaknesses in their ability and negatively impacts their performance in practice and in matches, we educate them on these topics by providing definitions and real life examples they can relate to, we provide a plan as to how they can immediately implement and apply these concepts to play and perform better, and finally we engage in mental workouts through retrospective questions enabling athletes to fully grasp our powerful mental training approach. After completing our workbook athletes will undoubtedly be equipped with the Mental Tools to: 1. Develop Supreme Confidence in their Skills and Abilities 2. Build Mental Toughness and Resilience to Overcome Obstacles 3. Learn to Handle Intense Pressure and Enormous Amounts of Adversity 4. Conquer their Crippling Fears and Severe Anxiety 5.

Book excerpt: Becoming Mentally Tougher In Table Tennis by Using Meditation is one of the best ways to prepare to reach your true potential. Eating right and training are two of the pieces of the puzzle but you need the third piece to see fantastic results. The third piece is mental toughness and that can be obtained through meditation.

What more can you ask for as a table tennis player? When considering unlocking their true potential most table tennis players focus on physical and nutritional goals but often overlook their inner potential through practices like meditation and visualization. It's common to want to see physical benefits from physical exercises but what many table tennis players don't know is that meditation has been proven to improve physical health and performance. Reaching your peak performance requires that you train and stimulate the body and mind. Not taking this into account can be a main reason why some table tennis players have trouble moving on to the next level. In order to do your best you must accept that the body and the mind are what will make you complete. Meditation as exercise for the mind helps to strengthen your mind as you would strengthen your body and consistently evolving as you practice it. Physical conditioning, good nutrition, and meditation are the three keys to achieve a state of optimal performance. Most table tennis players don't pay as much attention to meditation as they should because their mostly worried about appearance and how others perceive them. Results, in meditation, are not something you will see physically but rather in how you feel and in your new ability to control your thoughts and emotions. By starting your meditation sessions and being disciplined and consistent you will notice significant improvements in how you respond to anxiety, pressure, and stress which are three of the major issues most table tennis players have trouble overcoming in life and when trying to reach your true potential. Change your life and start using meditation to surpass your limits and break free! (c)2015 Correa Media Group
