When the performance matters we're going to feel some pressure, nerves, and stress. Whether it's a big presentation, a test, or even a date - most people think the most effective way to prepare for these situations is to try and calm down. In this episode, we dig into research that shows why this is a poor approach and the look at how we can do better. We learn how Ceci Clark, Mental Performance Coach for the Cleveland Indians, helps major leaguers perform better under pressure. We also bring in Jeremy Jamieson, Director of University of Rochester's Social Stress Lab, to help explain the science behind stress and how changing our perception of it can lead to better performance.Full Show NotesQuick Links:GRE StudyReappraisal Research by Allison Wood BrooksJeremy Jamieson - Director of the Social Stress Lab: University of RochesterCeci Clark - Mental Performance Coach: Cleveland IndiansTrainUgly.comQuestion hotline: 805-635-8459
