Disclaimer: I do not deal with #mentalhealth issues. If you feel you need help in this area, please seek out a qualified practitioner who can help you. However, I do help athletes, and specifically #sprinters , without mental health issues and I do this by promoting good mental health. In society and the media, we only deal with mental health when it becomess a negative impact on the individual. This becomes difficult to rectify when it has already appeared. I'm all for nipping it in the bud before it becomes an issue. Prevention is always better than a cure. As a health and fitness professional, prvention is part of my job description. I would like to promote good mental health like improving your diet. We eat to stay healthy to improve performance but also to prevent disease and other problems occurring. Good mental health should be the same. It should not fall to athletes with mental health issues to improve mental health. Healthy athletes should improve their mental health too so that they have the tools and mindset to overcome any obstacle in the future and to set an example for future generations. But good mental health leads to improved sports performance. Good mental health simply helps you to run faster. Your body thrives on postive energy. This is something that is not promoted in athletics and coaching for some reason and it is the simplest way to raise the levels of performance and ability in an athlete. Good mental health means feeling good and feeling good will help you become physically stronger athlete. This is where Be-Activated comes in. When all your muscles are #activated , your body is in its natural state. It's also in its parasympathetic state which means you are relaxed. It also means you are in the present moment. Be-Activated is a muscle activation service that essentially gets the athlete out of his/her head. What's great about it is that the athlete feels the difference inside the session and pre and post muscle tests show them how the body immediately reacts to the change in state. Posture normally improves. The athlete usually feels a lightness and an increase in energy. A feel of looseness as well as increased flexibility in hips and shoulders This is essential because not only does the athlete feel a physical almost immediate benefit but he/she will have leanr how thier body functions and how quickly and easily they raise their ability and potential. Contrary to popular belief, physical change can happen almost immediately. It's habits that take longer to change. The athlete would probbaly need repeated sessions and homewrok to make the powerful changes made in the session permanent but what's great is that they know how good they can feel and how important it is to their performance.
