About Open My Brain

Tom English

As a professional rugby player in Australia and Japan Tom English is no stranger to the pressures of high performance sport.

“Pressure coexists with professional sports. Coming through the sporting system you are always under pressure to make the team, perform and keep the others at bay. As you develop as an athlete the pressures evolve. Media exposure, money and individual and public expectation can impact your stress levels and mental wellbeing. Having a healthy mind is a huge part of ensuring your physical performance is optimised.”
