Making a resolution in the new year? What better way to achieve your personal goals than to train your brain like an Olympian with an Olympic State Of Mind.
Olympic State of Mind presented by Bridgestone is a multimedia experience which helps you to become the best version of yourself by exploring how Olympic athletes use sport psychology techniques such as mindfulness, visualisation and motivation to perform their best. Olympic State of Mind is available at Olympic Channel and its mobile apps.
Fans will learn some of the techniques used by Olympic medallists including wrestling’s Jordan Burroughs (USA), badminton’s P.V. Sindhu (IND), swimming’s Ariarne Titmus (AUS), athletics’ Allyson Felix (USA) and Thomas Rohler (GER) and triathlete Ai Ueda (JPN) that have helped them to overcome pressure and compete on the world’s biggest stage.

Mindfulness
How to turn negative emotions into positives: In the simplest terms, mindfulness helps to make you more aware of your thoughts, emotions and feelings in the present moment. Being emotionally aware can help everyone to reach their goals regardless of ability.
Visualisation
The secret weapon we all have but might not be using: Using your imagination to picture challenges ahead can help you achieve them in real life and could play a key role to unlocking your full potential.
Motivation
How knowing what motivates you can help you stand out from the crowd: Sometimes there’s no greater struggle than finding the motivation to push yourself that little bit further. However, with the right mindset this can be overcome.
Throughout the immersive experience users can put themselves in an Olympic State of Mind and practice proven techniques, such as breathing exercises or creating a motivational playlist, which can be applied to their daily lives and help to reach their personal achievement goals.
