Athlete courage propels you to achieve goals beyond your imagination. Reflect on your worst game, race, performance, tennis match – sit in the discomfort of that mishap, now, recall your best win – personal win, savor this moment. Each time you undergo lives’ challenging pitfalls, pause, and reflect on your worst and best wins. You’ll quickly shift your thought pattern and reset. Being an athlete is having a superpower; you can rely on your strength, passion, and discipline at any time. All you need is to practice retrieving your Athlete Superpower and convert it to mental agility fuel.

Courage is discipline fueled by passion. When you embrace and sweat discomfort, you exude courage; you are courage.

“ Courage doesn’t mean you don’t get

afraid. Courage means you don’t let fear stop you.”

– Bethany Hamilton, American champion

surfer.

Hello, Athlete's, today I prepared a mantra for those of you who feel an injury prevailing or those of you who are healing from an injury. Your body softly speaks to you. Once you accept that there is an injury on its way, you must address the Injury and embrace the circumstance. Tuning into your body will help you catch injuries before they escalate to greater depths. Do as you are told, listen to your coach, physical therapist; most importantly, listen and trust your intuition.

Repeat the Injury on the Horizon Mantra to help ground you and listen to your body. You may repeat the mantra when you are taking a leisurely walk or during your cool down, after a workout. It will be a smoother transition to implement your mantra as part of your stretching and cooldown time. Your mind is conditioned to allocate time to cool down, implementing the mantra as part of your cooldown time will naturally fit. If you are healing from an injury, repeat this mantra when you feel frustrated, upset, or when you crave practicing your sport.

Now let's practice the Injury on the Horizon Mantra.

Take three deep breaths.

Inhale, Exhale.

Inhale, Exhale.

Inhale, Exhale.

Sit quietly and silently begin repeating The Injury on the Horizon Mantra.

Injury on the Horizon Mantra I AM attune with my body. I AM listening. I AM aware.

Repeat this mantra as part of your healing journey. Answers and tranquility will come.

Tune in every week to obtain your Athlete's Monday Mantra.

Love, Lupe.
