In this short solo episode, I explain 5 reasons why you should look in more detail at the use of mindfulness and ACT in sport. How and why this approach goes on to free up mental space in your mind to enable you to perform better. I also summarise how Mindfulness and ACT can be used in harmony to develop a more mentally tough individual.
