HELLO!
Welcome to The Everyday Gymnast — created to celebrate the everyday part of gymnastics: The unglamorous, tough, day-to-day dedication that's the real magic of this sport we all love.
I (oh, my name is Megan, and I was once a gymnast too!) created this "toolkit" based off the lessons and experience I gained throughout my entire 18-year career to help support and empower all gymnasts (of varying age, skill, and level) in this sport. And as we all know, it's not easy! It's a complex world of exhausting practices, high expectations, self-criticism... and always striving for that notorious perfection. But it's also a world of incredible feats, truly unbelievable achievements, and immense accomplishment—making everything oh-so worth it, again and again.
I call this a *toolkit* because it's not a book... it's more than a journal.... and it's made just for gymnasts to help them discover the magic that's already within them to make their dreams (like, that big one) come true. We fly for real, after all!
The Details:
This everyday book of mental exercise is developed to support and challenge gymnasts in the many situations they’ll inevitably find themselves in their gymnastics journey, split into three main categories:
One full-year worth of –
- Daily Reflections
- Competition (Pre- and Post-) Support
- Management of “bad days”
(and additional, bonus activities sprinkled throughout!)
…specifically made to be quick and effective, so it can fit easily into a jam-packed schedule. (“Spare” time is rare and precious!) And, dare I say, it’s also made to be just a little bit fun, too.
