  • Take care of your coach [Elektronski vir] : the manual
    Jeromen, Tina ; Martinović, Dubravka ; Udovč, Maša Patricija
    The Manual for the project #Take care of your coach is a novelty in the field of sport psychology. Sports psychologists usually focus on the well-being of athletes and the coach is only looked at ... from the perspective of what he can do for the athletes. It is rarely or hardly ever the case that we look at the coach and how he feels - we just cite the tasks of the coach. This manual recognizes that, but it goes far beyond this. The manual also looks at how the coach feels - it goes from the perspective that only if the coach feels good about himself and is mentally and physically well, he can then focus on the athletes. This manual gives practical advice for the coach to focus on himself, it attempts to teach the coach to relax by showing simple breathing exercises, and it also works on the perspective of giving the coach practical techniques, such as problem-solving techniques. The manual teaches the coach to be mindful and to pay attention to changes which occur within himself, it also helps him to change his perspective of the situation. It also teaches the coach the importance of peer support and what is most important is that this manual has been tested on coaches. All the exercises that are inside have been verified in the practical situation and the initial coaching responses show that this is a valuable tool. Chapters of the manual are: Who is the coach, What is Stress, What is mental health, Stress management - how to deal with stressful situations, Breathing and Mindfulness, Stress management techniques (3F, Problem-solving, Control the Controllable, ABC technique) and Peer to peer Psychological Support. Each chapter consists of a practical example or a practical situation from coaches who participated in the project.
