Michael Jordan credits George Mumford with transforming his on-court leadership of the
Bulls, helping Jordan lead the team to six NBA championships. Mumford also helped Kobe
Bryant, Andrew Bynum, and Lamar Odom and countless other NBA players turn around their
games. A widely respected public speaker and coach, Mumford is sharing his own story
and the strategies that have made these athletes into stars in The Mindful Athlete:
The Secret to Pure Performance. His proven, gentle but groundbreaking mindfulness
techniques can transform the performance of anyone with a goal, be they an Olympian,
weekend warrior, executive, hacker, or artist.
Mumford's deeply moving personal story is unforgettable. A basketball player at the
University of Massachusetts (where he roomed with Dr. J, Julius Erving), injuries
forced Mumford out of the game he loved. The meds that relieved the pain of his
injuries also numbed him to the emptiness he felt without the game and eventually led
him to heroin. After years as a functioning addict, Mumford enrolled in Dr. Jon Kabat-
Zinn's Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction program, and made meditation, on and off the
cushion, the center of his life. He kicked drugs, earned a master's degree in
counseling psychology and began teaching meditation to inmates and others.
When Michael Jordan left the Chicago Bulls to play baseball in 1993, the team was in
crisis. Coach Phil Jackson, a long-time mindfulness practitioner, contacted Dr. Kabat-
Zinn to find someone who could teach mindfulness techniques to the struggling team -
someone who would have credibility and could speak the language of his players. Kabat-
Zinn led Jackson to Mumford and their partnership began. Mumford has worked with
Jackson and each of the eleven teams he coached to become NBA champions. His roster of
champion clients has since blossomed way beyond basketball to include corporate
executives, Olympians, and athletes.
