Frontiers in Psychology September 7, 2022 Katherine V. Sparks, Christopher Ring 20 citations
A 6-week rowing-specific mindfulness intervention, combining generic and rowing-specific practices, increased flow, mindfulness, and rowing performance in rowers, while decreasing conscious motor processing from pre-test to post-test. However, the intervention did not change mindfulness or reinvestment more than the control condition. Participants evaluated the intervention positively. These results provide preliminary evidence that sport-specific mindfulness training can benefit athletes.
