Olympic gymnast Simone Biles told the press she would be practicing more mindfulness after withdrawing from the individual all-around competition in the Tokyo Summer Olympics 2021. We invite psychiatrist and former Team USA gymnast, Dr. Gino Mortillaro, to help us understand how mindfulness can help an athlete. We also take assessments of our own mindfulness with some interesting results.
