Day 4 – What Are Elite Athletes Teaching Us About Mental Health? | The Game Inside The Games

Are elite athletes a good population to teach us about mental health?

Despite what coverage in the media might suggest… YES! Elite athletes have so much to teach us about how to work from the inside out.

On Day 4 of The Game Inside The Games, five-time medalist Nastia Liukin and high-performance psychologist Dr. Michael Gervais explore the topic of mental health in the context of one of the biggest sporting events on the planet.

They discuss the importance of mental skills training, the evolving conversation around mental health in sports, and how athletes like Simone Biles have influenced this dialogue.

The topic of mental health exists on a large spectrum – and right now, the conversation is focused on dysfunction, not health. It’s time to flip the script.
