Golf and the Brain

How my golf teacher uses the complete powers of the brain to plan and actually achieve success! What healthcare workers can learn from golf.

Golf and the Brain

I am a super new golfer.

I am a super new empty nester (almost).

I have had kids in my house for 28 years.. soon to have no kids in the nest.

Wow, that is such a change!

I hear now I can do what I would like and set my days according to what I want.

So, I am planning to fill my days with what I want. This is actually really hard, I am not sure why it sounds great.

So, enter Steve, my new golf teacher. He is a veteran, musician and an all around amazing person. He talks about the brain when he is teaching us golf. He talks about how our subconscious drives our actions. How we have to have one goal and then “trick” or respect the brain and use its’ powers to get the shot we actually want. He talks about how the brain is taking in data and we have to honor that it is planning and helping us succeed. He tells us to walk the greens and take in the data points and then plan the shot and all will go well. How did I get so lucky to find a golf teacher that talks brains? I am in heaven!

He is so right, we have many parts of our brains helping us all day long by taking in data points without our full awareness. We need to have a goal, assess the terrain and barriers to achieve the goal and respect our brain’s ability to synthesize the data and help us plan.

I am trusting Steve, he has lots of experience and success.

Are you trusting your amazing brain to help you succeed in your goals?

Trust that it is taking in data and trying to help you succeed?

I work with folks in healthcare to help them focus their time and energy so that they can live fully in their purpose with fun and foundational neuroscience strategies.

I believe the answers to long term meaning, purpose and happiness lie in the neuroscience strategies.

We can learn new strategies, trust and move forward.

Set a Goal.

Trust.

Move forward.

You got this!

I hope to see you on the greens and please bring a kleenex, there may be lots of tears as I adjust to an empty nest!
