After reading “30 Day Return To Play Journal, An Edge in Sports, Mental Reps for Life”, I found that it delivers a sincere and powerful message. A message that everyone can apply to their lives. It is written by an accomplished two-time All-American college and professional athlete who has “been there and done that”. It is a short 83-page book in journal format that is aimed primarily at the athlete who has been sidelined because of an athlete’s worst fear… injury. The injury can be physical or mental or both. Suddenly, the athlete’s focus shifts from team and individual goals to getting well by connecting body and mind… and back into action. This amazing short instructive book leads the recovering athlete through a 30 day-by-day journey of intensive journaling exercises, connecting the mind and body, to create strong and resilient mindset habits through journaling. A daily assessment of emotions, learning the mindset skill of gratitude, and rehearsing the comeback to the sport through strong and positive visualization techniques, focusing on the mind and body as one unit, are key elements of this journal/book’s powerful message. Certainly, a helpful book with powerful journaling techniques equally applicable to each one of us when we are temporarily sidelined by life’s physical and emotional events.
