The physiological response to a high-pressure moment is actually telling us we are ready to perform. But because we aren’t used to the sensations and changes our body produces, we often view what is happening as negative and something that needs to be suppressed. This makes us pay attention to the stress rather than to our performance. So we naturally tell ourselves to be calm, even though we know that is not what our body is experiencing.
I love this reframing of feelings, I have learned this trait from being prior military and from being in the fire service. I attempt to teach this reframing ability to my rugby players as well. Thank you for this quick read.
