This is how mindfulness meditation enhances your tennis game:
Pressure and Stress:
Tennis players have a great deal of pressure and stress during tournaments. But gladly, research shows that mindfulness decreases “Cortisol” levels inducing a sense of calmness throughout the nervous system. In other words, your mind and your body become more relaxed, as they are freed from tension created by different thoughts and emotions. This relaxation will help you hit groundstrokes with higher confidence and precision.
Getting Anxious Before a Match
Studies show that mindfulness meditation reduces the grey-matter density in the brain which is related to anxiety. Also as you practice meditation you will learn how to manage your thoughts and emotions in a better way so they don’t affect the present moment, whether it’s before a tennis match or during a match, you will always be in control of “right now”.
Focusing
Deep focus is a key aspect of tennis, and with mindfulness meditation for tennis, players can significantly improve this ability. Studies show that mindfulness meditators are able to suppress distracting information and activity much more efficient than other people. In this way you’ll gain mental strength and be able to focus on what’s in front of you with greater attention and for longer periods of time.
Creativity and Decision Making
Every win and every loss in tennis is the sum of little decisions made throughout a match. Every single shot is a new decision that is packed with strategy and creativity to overcome your opponent. Mindfulness meditations for tennis has proven to increase divergent thinking, which is a primary driver for innovation. Also, as your mind is more relaxed, focused, and strong you’ll be able to make faster and more accurate decisions on the court.
