Peu d'entraîneurs et d'athlètes savent qu'une grande partie de la psychologie sportive classique était en fait inefficace et pouvait même amener une détérioration de la performance. C'était la partie concernant le contrôle des pensées négatives...
Vous n'avez qu'à lire l'extrait de cet article du Huffingtonpost intitulé "Djokovic’s New Tennis Psychology"
"...psychologists Zella Moore and Frank Gardner.

PST attempts to change an athlete’s negative thoughts and emotions, and replace them with more positive and helpful ones. Given PST’s poor results, Moore and Gardner developed a new method called the Mindfulness-Acceptance-Commitment (MAC) program. MAC turned PST on its head by training athletes to mindfully accept negative experiences without trying to change them.
Djokovic remains the only top player to have gone public about his meditation practice, but given his phenomenal success and the growing body of research evidence supporting mindfulness practice for athletes, we can expect more and more tennis stars to embrace this method."
