Encore: Visualize Your Goal Jun 13, 2023

Show notes

Summer Encore episode! There’s a common bit of sports psychology that tells athletes to visualize themselves making a goal before they take a shot. On this episode I recall learning this lesson on my childhood basketball team, then explain how this advice is similar to saying affirmations.

Guest Mini: Storypillar Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

I hope you'll enjoy this special guest episode from our friends at Storypillar. Storypillar is a podcast for kids and their grownups that tackles the sticky situations kids face while growing up. It features a story-loving caterpillar named Sneak, Sneak’s older sister, a butterfly named Bean, and Meg, a human person who writes and produces the podcast. This guest mini-episode features Bean the butterfly doing a mindful check-in, which she calls a Bean-o-meter check. We all know that mindfulness is about slowing down and paying attention to the things that are happening inside you and around you. So I thought it would be fun for you to hear how Bean checks in with her own feelings. Bean will also say a few affirmations, which listeners of Like You are very familiar with.
