    Consider yourself as an umpire in a high stakes match.

    This can turn out to be an intense experience.
    There could be several crucial moments that will provide unique challenges.

    You manage to remain composed.
    You know the laws of the game and can balance them with the spirit of the game.
    You have courage to make correct decisions even when they are difficult.
    You know conscious breathing helps you remain relaxed and focussed.
    You use the natural breaks and stoppages in play to perform own body scan to release tension.

    Share your thoughts and experiences.

    All matches are high stakes. There is always something on the line.
