Episode Notes:

Episode 282 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a fantastic discussion with one of North America's leading mental coaches, Dr. Saul Miller who counts several NHL Goaltenders amongst his many clients across multiple professional sports.In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, presented by Sense Arena, Dr. Mille, whose clients have included sport teams in the NFL, NBA, NHL, CFL, Major League Baseball, in Europe, plus PGA Tour golfers, NCAA athletes, and Olympians in over a  dozen different sports, touches on a number of topics specific to our position that will benefit coaches, goaltenders and goalie parents. We discuss visualization, affirmations, the power of positivity in video review and much more - all guaranteed to help your game.In our Parents Segment, presented by the Stop It Goaltending U app, we lfollow up from last week's discussion on whether it might be better to play on a relatively stronger or weaker team for your development by giving parents and goalies tips for dealing with the mental grind of playing on a weak team - tips that indeed will help goalies regardless of where they play.We also review this week's Pro Reads, which features Joseph Woll of the Toronto Maple Leaf, and is presented by Vizual Edge, a tool used to enhance tracking, reaction speed, visual stamina, and focus. Woll talks about his choice to use RVH in a specific situation, why he would have preferred to stay on his feet and the role those decisions play in a desperation save.And in our weekly gear segment, we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports to look at the retro styled Bauer Reactor 5 Sticks - the perfect compliment to any setup, especially the popular Reactor 5 pads and gloves. Links this week:Dr. Saul MillerHockey Tough: https://www.amazon.ca/Hockey-Tough-2nd-Saul-Miller/dp/1492504092/Cycle Psyched : https://www.amazon.ca/Cycle-Psyched-Wisdom-Mental-Training/dp/1950484890/Winning Golf: https://www.amazon.ca/Winning-Golf-Creating-Confidence-Consistently/dp/1770416854Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@sportpsychologyschool8526Web site : https://www.saulmiller.com/Parents SegmentInner Book of Tennis: https://www.amazon.ca/Inner-Game-Tennis-Classic-Performance/dp/B007CKJNPY
