Purpose

RETURN TO FLOW is an international consulting site and resource in peak performance psychology for seriously competitive athletes, coaches and teams who want to maintain or achieve professional or amateur elite status on the national or international stage. As the bar continues to be raised in all sports at both the amateur and professional world-class levels, it has become increasingly clear that only those athletes who intentionally cultivate inner mental and emotional resiliency will have a significant advantage over their competition.

In REALITY each elite athlete is unique and requires an approach to peak performance that optimally matches their personality, strengths, limitations and growing edge. One size does not fit all, which is why generalized approaches to increase performance levels typically do not produce positive outcomes tailored to an athlete's specific needs.

Under the direction of Psychologist Arthur Giacalone, Ph.D., RETURN TO FLOW has been designed to provide state-of-the-art, evidence based information on peak performance psychology and practices that more consistently lead to the experience of FLOW in athletic competition. A special section on Sports Trauma is included that will be of interest to the athlete who finds him or herself dealing with the frustrating experience of a slump cycle.
