    #CFPOA #49 Getting to a Higher Level in Sports with Meditation with Sam Lofton

    #CFPOA #49 Getting to a Higher Level in Sports with Meditation with Sam Lofton

    Sam Lofton's childhood was full of sports and competitiveness with her two siblings.  She had difficulties along the way by the way of experiencing different emotions stemming from a traumatic head injury her sister faced while Sam was a youth player, which cut her own soccer career short. 

    Sam continued hers and found her way to James Madison University and to the professional ranks of the NWSL with Boston Breakers and Portland Thorns FC, before heading to Europe, and attributes her success to finding meditation along her journey.

    She now works with youth athletes and teaches them the same techniques, which helped her achieve success on and off the field.

    #CFPOA #48 Why Sleep is so Important for You and Your Child with Adam Krause

    #CFPOA #48 Why Sleep is so Important for You and Your Child with Adam Krause

    In this episode Gabe interviews Adam Krause, a PhD candidate in Psychology at UC Berkeley, working with Professor Matthew Walker at the Center for Human Sleep Science. Dr. Walker wrote the book, "Why We Sleep", which motivated Gabe to reach out to Adam.

    Adam's educational background is in philosophy and cognitive science from UC Berkeley, and his current work leverages multi-disciplinary techniques to examine the impact of sleep deprivation on human health and brain function. He is particularly interested in the physiology of pain, the interplay between sleep and the immune system, and in exploring the many functions of sleep.

    Gabe and Adam discuss the different types of sleep, sleep needs for children and adolescents, sleep paralysis, sleep's impact on pain and recovery, good sleep habits, and much more.
    As always, you can get in touch with Gabe for any individual or group coaching or team workshops at aclearmind.com

Valuable

This is best best podcast for parenting athletes out there! I’ve learned some great takeaways from Gabe’s interviews which show themes in how athletes were raised: parents not involved with coaching, parents being a source of unconditional love completely unrelated to athletic performance, and the fact that a great athlete will put enough pressure onto his/her own self- no more to a needed from a parent.

These are all tips from this podcasts that have totally changed my outlook on parenting my young athlete and I am so grateful for them.

Thank you for a clear, concise, relatable and valuable podcast, Gabe!

Stands out

From many podcasts out there, I find Gabe Nosseir’s unique. He addresses exactly what I need to hear about raising athletic kids. Even if mine have olympic dreams, I am happy to support them in being the best in school, maybe the district or the county or region. Hey, maybe state and national?
Whatever the level of achievement ultimately, I hear about what IT COUNTS from Mr. Nosseir. Sometimes I want to tell my kids what to do and how to be. I KNOW that I have to LISTEN to them, though. I know because other parents of successful athletes have said so.
This is just an example of why I look forward to this podcasts. They are upbeat, fun, instructive, and they make me a better mom. Well, most of the times—I can still lose my patience!
