Then, when all seemed like peace had been restored to my existence, 9/11 happened. I was out on a morning jog, something I’d added to my climbing training, and I was listening to the radio on my Walkman. The song on the radio was interrupted: the United States had been attacked, and the first World…

Nach vier Tagen auf hoher See bleibt dem Expeditionsteam nicht viel Zeit, um sich vom Segeln und der Seekrankheit zu erholen. Umgeben von Fjorden, Eis und steilen Wänden suchen sie nach den idealen Kletterrouten.https://www.srf.ch/play/tv/sendung/dok---hoch-hinaus?id=c66487b3-0990-0001-d92c-55501cb0144d#Mountains #Berge #Greenland #Grönland #Climbing #Bergsteigen #Mountaineering #DOKHochHinaus

The AAC’s Climbing Grief Fund has a directory of therapists who are specialists in the unique risks, challenges, joys, and euphoria of outdoor recreation, and are informed practitioners who support climbers experiencing grief and trauma. And though the directory is an invaluable resource when people need support in the face of the most intense kinds of grief and tragedy, these counselors also have expertise in other areas, including sports performance psychology. Because it's all connected–just as grief and trauma impacts our relationship to climbing, so too, does working on resilience, self-compassion, and other mental health skills help us excel at our goals in climbing. In this episode, we have therapist and sports psychologist Neal Palles on to chat about how to practice and stack various mental training techniques and concepts on top of each other to build towards peak performance. We periodize our physical training, and according to Palles, we can apply that same concept to mental skills as well. Dive in!
