    Mental toughness in Golf 3 of 10 Concentration 
Concentration, or the ability to focus on the task at hand while ignoring distractions, is crucial for success in golf. This is true because golf is a “stop-start” game in which at least 90% of your time on the course is spent doing something other than hitting the ball. And because there is a lot of walking and mental “down time” between your shots, a multitude of distractions can arise and divert your focus from the present moment. For example, a sudden noise or movement from a playing partner could upset your swing or you may find yourself thinking too far ahead as you face a putt. And like most players, you probably find it difficult to forget about a missed opportunity that occurred several holes back. Unfortunately, each of these distractions could prove costly to your score. 
Contains 6 special tips to improve concentration in your game, and a short visualisation exercise involving a short putt. 
Written by Professor Aidan Moran. Aidan is Director of the Psychology Research Laboratory in University College, Dublin. Aidan’s work for the last twenty years has included one to one coaching on mental toughness with top players including Major winners. Narrated by Sara Dylan

    This short audio presentation is designed to bring a clear understanding of the benefits of walking, how to do more of it, and to give you the opportunity to focus and reflect on the level of walking and exercise currently in your life. "You have to go through the falling down in order to learn to walk" Carol Burnett Walking is much more than the mundane activity of getting from A to B, on foot. Even the very way we learn to walk as babies, teaches us a fundamental lesson about life. This audio presentation includes a mindfulness reflection walking exercise. 
 
How this audio learning experience works 
This audio presentation has been designed using an experiential learning model, Kolb, D. A. (1984): concrete learning, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. 
By taking this approach we hope to cater for all learning styles. 
You will be given specific new information in the recording usually as “key tips”, “explanations” and “quotes”. You will be led through a gentle but positive meditative reflection process to assist you before conceptualisation and then putting your new skills into practice. 
You will be encouraged to return to the recording from time to time to re-listen and reinforce your learning and the desired changes in your life. 
Enjoy!
