		<description><![CDATA[Note: As posted at athleta.com&#8230; Calling All Vegan or Vegan-Curious! If you are vegan, I’d love to hear from you. Tell me why a plant based diet works for you. If you are vegan-curious, or over 50, like me, I think you’ll be interested in my vegan experiment. Before I share what I’m up to nutritionally I’ll give you some background on my starting place, experience as an omnivore and why I’m currently checking out a vegan way of eating. As a lifetime athlete and coach seeking to feel some big energy as much as possible in my waking hours (and support others in this as well), I’ve done a lot of research on nutrition; nutrition for life, and nutrition [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[REMINDER!: This year I am blogging on Athleta.com website and will be sharing the same blogs I offer Athleta to this blog site. Enjoy! &#8211; Terri In my last post, Part 2, we were left working with word imagery while prepping to head to Kona for the big scary test at the Ironman World Championship. Check list en route to Kona: Word cues and affirmations solidly in place? Check. Fit as I can be given minimal land running? Check. Stifling heat and unrelenting winds on the Kona Coast? Check. Huge unknown hanging over my head as to how this race will play out!? Check! Even though I was completely unsure how my injured leg would play out on race day, as [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Note: Post from Athleta Chi. In my last post, I touched on the ‘whys’ and ‘whats’ of mental training as we started thinking about what our internal brain feed looks like when we train. In this post, I’ll offer you a few tools to develop your own mental training process—wrapped into a real life story. I’ve had quite a few poignant experiences highlighting the challenges and successes of how this work has moved in my life—stories that bring us through jungles, deserts, and on mountains—some of which I’ll share in future posts. But my initiation to the significant power of mental training goes way back in time to my life in triathlon and racing the Ironman distance. So in Part 2 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[POSTED FROM THE ATHLETA CHI BLOG: A ‘Why’ and ‘What’ of Mental Training for Sport (and Life!) A month ago I tossed out a question on my Facebook wall: “As an athlete, do you spend focused time working on mental training?” This was a tiny test to a) see if folks had a sense for what mental training is, and b) get a feel for where mental training lies on their priority scale. My ‘test’ was admittedly remedial, but even the tiny sample size did uncover a couple things I have realized from many years as a coach and sport psychology consultant with lots of athletes: That the majority are uninitiated to structured mental training and its powerful benefits, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Brain Function and the Bonk (guest post by Terri Schneider on KonaKase.com) Posted: February 21, 2013 on KonaKase.com Have you ever felt sleepy a few hours or more into an event or training? Mentally and physically out of sorts? Lethargic? Or, have you slipped into a really bad mood during an event and subsequently spent some solid time bashing your abilities as an athlete or perhaps why you as a human exist on this planet at all? If you answer yes to any of these, there is a good chance you have been on the edge of or in the throes of bonking. Bonking is general fatigue resulting from muscle glycogen depletion. When your stores are severely threatened, your brain function can [...]]]></description>

Either spot is excellent but on the Athleta site you can shop after you are done reading. Efficient . A New Year’s resolution (NYR) is generally viewed as an advantageous commitment, goal, or habit change that we embark on at the start of a new year. Our chosen change up can be considered a one-time new beginning or an opportunity to say goodbye to a habit that isn’t serving us. We also tend to view the NYR as something ‘special,’ that perhaps we can’t or won’t tackle unless an occasion like the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I used to dislike getting the “this is what we’ve been up to this past year” letters in Christmas cards. Not because I didn’t want to hear what people are up to, I do, but more so because they all seemed to focus on peoples kids rather than what was in the thoughts of the person actually sending the card. For reasons I completely get, the focus seems skewed. If a good friend is sending me a ‘year in review’ letter, I want to hear whats up with the friend specifically. How is he/she doing? What are their current challenges and joys. This is such an excellent platform to learn from each other and connect. So when I send out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I tend to formulate an idea/adventure internally, then when I’m ready to entertain moving it forward I’ll verbalize it in some fashion. Sometimes I sort out what I’m getting myself into before I verbalize, sometimes not. But the speaking part is the declaration for me and sets me in motion. When I asked Karma and Kinzang if they were interested in coming to America, while I was in Bhutan this past summer, I had no idea of the arduous task I’d take on to get them here. Usually, the more difficult the challenge the more I dig my heals in, continually working to prove that as humans we can accomplish almost anything we set out to do if we want [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I gave a talk recently at TEDxSanta Cruz where I shared a personal story that I had never shared with anyone prior, even myself. This share was uncovered for the first time in a very public setting partly because prior to being invited to talk at TEDx I had not yet succinctly processed the affect that my extensive involvement with Bhutan had had on me personally. It solidified when I was required to do that deep dive while creating my brief talk. I won’t spoil the story except to say that the crux is about deep connection. We’ll wait to see how we get connected when the video is live on the TEDx website. Because what I wanted to share [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[Written en route back to the US] Due to travel schedules or sessions of Parliament, I did not have an opportunity to reunite and chat (separately) with two of Bhutan’s forward thinking visionaries until my last week in Bhutan— His Royal Highness, Prince Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuck, the President of the BOC and, the Opposition Leader, Tshering Tobgay. Yet these many hours of discussion on the eve of my departure with each of these intelligent men, not only put the big bold exclamation mark on my work here, but cemented long term and intimate ties with a nation. When I shared with His Royal Highness that I saw Bhutan’s sporting programs as a freshly sprouting seed, he mirrored back to me [...]]]></description>
