Mind, Body, Mood
Cognitive Challenges (Choose One)
1. Multitask Madness: Count backward from 30 while doing jumping jacks.
2. Distraction Test: Listen to music with lyrics and type your favorite food 10 times.
3. Memory Recall: After watching a short video or reading a paragraph, list as many key
points as you can remember.
4. Puzzle Time: Solve a Sudoku or crossword puzzle while standing on one foot.
Reflection Questions:
● Was it hard to focus? Why?
I counted backward from 30 while doing
jumping jacks. It was hard to focus because I
was thinking and moving at the same time.
● What part of your brain felt “busy”?
My brain felt "busy" trying to keep the
count right.
● How would this affect performance in a game or performance setting?
In a game, this would make it harder to
make fast, smart decisions.
❤ Emotional Challenges (Choose One) (verywellmind.com)
1. Act It Out: Pretend you’re feeling nervous before a team competition. What do you do
with your hands, voice, breathing?
2. Scenario Solve: Imagine you’re angry at a teammate during practice. Write down (or
record) how you would stay calm and address it.
3. Gratitude Journal: List three things you're grateful for and explain why.
4. Mood Music: Listen to a song that matches your current mood and reflect on how it
affects your emotions.
Reflection Questions:
● How do emotions affect your body and choices?
My emotions affect how I feel physically
and what I choose to do.
● How could emotional control improve performance?
Staying calm and positive would help me
perform better in sports.
Physical Challenges (Choose One)
1. Fatigue Test: Do 20 seconds of jumping jacks, then try a concentration puzzle (e.g.,
name 5 cities or unscramble 5 words).
2. Balance Break: Hold a balance pose (like flamingo or airplane) while answering a trivia
question or spelling your full name backward.
3. Speed Drill: Time yourself running in place for 30 seconds and count your steps.
4. Strength Challenge: Perform as many push-ups or sit-ups as you can in one minute.
Reflection Questions:
● What was harder: the physical or the mental part?
I did as many push-ups as I could in a minute.
The physical part was harder, but being tired
made it hard to think too.
● How does being tired affect thinking or mood?
When I'm tired, it's harder to focus and stay
positive.
Performance Reflection
Answer these final questions:
1. Which area (mind, body, or mood) had the biggest effect on your performance?
The area that had the biggest effect on my performance
was my body, because when I was tired, everything
else felt harder.
2. How do these areas work together in sports, PE, or group activities?
Mind, body, and mood all work together in
sports and PE by helping you focus, stay strong,
and keep a good attitude.
3. What’s one strategy you can use to stay mentally, physically, and emotionally strong
during a challenge?
One strategy I can use is to take deep breaths,
stay hydrated, and think positively during
challenges.
