Chad McGehee has a unique job as the Director of Meditation Training at the University of Wisconsin.  Most agree that mental training is vital to success in elite sports, and that mindfulness is a valuable part of mental training, but no other program has dedicated a position as a resource for their athletes.  In this episode of Unit3d, Chad goes in to detail about the benefits of mindfulness and meditation and addresses many misperceptions that athletes may have about the practice.  He also offers some practical ways to begin and embrace a mindfulness and/or meditation practice.
