Have you ever wondered how elite athletes maintain their top-notch performance under intense pressure? The answer might surprise you – it’s not just about physical training; it’s also about mental preparation.
For many athletes, like three-time MLB All-Star Sean Casey, that time just before a game is critical for getting the mind in the right place.
And that’s where Tapping for sports performance comes into play.
Tapping is a research-backed tool, where cutting-edge neuroscience meets ancient wisdom. And it’s been proven to help athletes improve their game!
That’s why we were so excited when we had the chance to collaborate with Sean Casey to develop a series of Tapping meditations in The Tapping Solution App, each designed to harness the power of your mind to elevate your athletic performance.
Before diving into the research on Tapping and sharing the meditations, let’s talk about Sean Casey.
Sean Casey is a former Major League Baseball player and former hitting coach for the New York Yankees. He was selected as an MLB All-Star three times during his 12 years playing as a first baseman and had a career batting average of .302. Sean is also an MLB Network analyst.
Now that’s one impressive professional career!
Sean knows firsthand the pressures and challenges that athletes face. He knows what it is like to perform at the very highest level, and to be under the spotlight while doing so.
And guess what? One of his favorite tools to help settle his mind, stay centered, and play at his best is… Tapping!
Watch below to hear from Sean himself about how much he loves Tapping:
It’s no secret that alongside the physical abilities that are required of athletes, there’s a big mental component, too.
It is vitally important for athletes to learn to stay calm, relaxed, and centered before and during big events – even when the stakes are high!
Because we all know what it’s like to try and do something well when we are full of anxiety, jitters, and nerves – whether it’s giving a presentation at work or trying to hit a home run. Let’s just say it doesn’t end well.
Tapping works by calming the brain and body, releasing strong emotions like anxiety and stress, and actually rewiring the brain to help us face high-pressure situations while staying calm, centered, focused, and confident.
Research has revealed that Tapping can significantly impact athletic performance. Studies show players scoring more, hitting targets better, and feeling more confident – all thanks to a bit of Tapping:
The research is ever-growing on the benefits of Tapping. But I think it’s fair to say that Tapping has a lot of potential to help athletes of all kinds increase their performance and play better!
We worked closely with Sean Casey, gathering his expert guidance and wisdom, to create meditations that address the specific needs of athletes.
And we even have two sessions guided by Sean himself! In the app, you can join him for an incredible experience as he leads you through Pre- and Post-Baseball Game Tapping meditations.
Here are the meditations created with Sean, which you can find in our Sports Performance Category:
