Cognitive scientist Sian Beilock joins News NOW to share why it is so important for athletes to prioritise mental health and how Olympians can overcome the mounting pressure from both the media and social media.

  1. Her Aunt recently passed away. Sorry to hear about that.
    Sometimes…more than not, family members die when you're ready to mount up with wings as eagles, walk and not …(?)
    My faves passed away and even monarchial not so fave, but highly regarded familia passed away every time it was a great and important 'shift' occurring in my life.
    Famous people need to be highly promenaded while they're doing well, with deaths and the like filtered, especially during ahletic competition.

  2. Not mental health problem , mental and physical burnout, coupled with a nice bank account, which helps ease the pressure to perform and compete . Mental health problem would be my son in jail, not able to drive car or hold a job, or finish high school . He has suffered for 15 yrs and quit not on teammates , but life and himself . Hero's are working in today's hospitals and school's and firefighters in the west . Simone is a great athlete and is surrounded by a great team to help her. She is not alone in victory or defeat . But my son is alone . Not a hater or jealous , but being honest from the lower levels of society , the blue collar people .

  3. I wake up everyday healthy and sound without any pain, recovering so fast from my herpes disease damages after using a herbal supplements from Dr IGUDIA on YouTube.

  4. Booooo she was caught out shopping and wandering shops eating at restaurants not wearing a mask anywhere breaking rules begging to stay at a hotel with her team before she quit the games cos she came for a holiday vacation because covid and USA is depressing and pressure she’s so special

  5. Jesse Owens is still the greatest olympian ever in my opinion. Just think about the stress he was going through!!!!!

  6. Shout out to George Floyd on fourteen months of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals🖕🖕🖕

  7. Instead of training hard,Biles did food commercials, Dancing with the stars gig ,many interviews. She assumed she was all that,but there are many athletes who are better than she is.Claiming mental health is a new excuse now for someone who is not getting their ways.She should be ashamed of herself. Coward

  8. Olympic athletes are suppose to be trained to over come mental hurdles. The Goat will go down in history as a Quitter. This wasn't a high school competition this is the Olympics. If she has mental health problems she shouldn't have gotten on the plane and got help right away. I have watched every Olympics in my life and have never seen anything like this. I seen a diver crack his head open on the board, 35 mins later and 5 stitches he dove for GOLD. I seen figure skaters skate after her mom died unexpectedly she went for GOLD. I have seen athletes give it their all to get what they trained their whole life for.

  9. She quit on her teammates because she had a bad result.
    Then comes back solo to win a bronze medal to make it look like, she defied the odds and over came mental health in the wake of criticism.
    She quit on her team-mates and she quit on the country she is supposed to represent. This is not a political statement these are the facts.
