An Investigation of Mental Approach

This is my Masters Thesis that I was required to complete for my MA in Kinesiology in 2004. After completing my undergrad in 1999 I played professional baseball for 2 seasons in the Frontier League of Professional Baseball. I have always been fascinated by the mind/body connection and as a player my understanding and practice of it proved advantages. Since completing my MA and retiring from pro ball the process of becoming one with the elements of experience have continued considerably. More recently, I have spent the past 15 years practicing, studying and experiencing Vijnana Yoga. Yoga immediately presented to me a mental and physical discipline that revealed what I like to refer to as, "ancient sport psychological techniques." That is, the practice itself allows for total absorption in the moment and an understanding of the process from which ease and effortlessness spawn in complimentary fashion. Presently, I have organized my experiences into a movement modality which I teach to athletes and teams throughout North America. FORM: is a pre-habilitation and injury prevention strategy for producing peak performance. Please visit www.andrewclements.ca for more information
