We all know that climbing is a headgame, and many climbers
recognise that their mindset is holding them back. But what
psychological skills do you need for climbing, and how do you
develop them? If you have ever wanted to learn how to climb with
more confidence, to learn how to stick to a training plan, or to
understand how to tap into flow, then this book is for you. Split
into three sections, covering getting started on a mental skills
training programme, fixing problems in your climbing caused by
anxiety, and finessing your mental skills, this book provides clear
explanations and practical exercises to improve your mindset for
climbing. You'll learn to analyse your mental strengths and
weaknesses, set effective goals, change habits, overcome fear of
falling, fear of failing, fear of injury and social anxieties
affecting climbers' performance. Chapters on confidence, focusing
skills, imagery and visualisation, and problem solving and
creativity in your climbing are all written in a practical and easy
to understand format, so you can incorporate these skills into your
climbing training. There is also a section on mental wellbeing for
climbers, with hints and tips on healthy perfectionism, as well as
mental health. This book draws on the latest in climbing and sport
psychology research, and translates it into practical accessible
ideas and exercises for climbers at all levels of the sport.
