  • Personal reflections on MPA and explicit monitoring theory

    Personal reflections on MPA and explicit monitoring theory
    Mar 30 2021

    In this episode I share my own personal experiences around performance anxiety including anxiety about warming up and worrying about what the audience is thinking. I also chat about some strategies I have experimented with and found helpful for managing MPA. I discuss the importance of preparation, the role of imagery, and reframing nerves as excitement, referring to recent research in these areas. I also discuss explicit monitoring theory; what it is and how it can affect your performance. I hope you enjoy this episode.
