The Power of a Conscious Athlete
In The Power of a Conscious Athlete, Cindy Deugo reveals the life-altering power of conscious awareness. We often live day-to-day on auto-pilot, unmindful of what really drives us and unaware of the false, limiting beliefs that hold us back. An accomplished athlete in canoe and flatwater kayak, she has also completed the Ironman four times along with countless triathlons, marathons, and road races. She shares her inspiring story of learning to look inward, exploring the hidden fears and emotional pain beneath the surface, and changing her thoughts and beliefs. Connecting to a deeper level of consciousness can transform you as an athlete and human being, improve your performance, and unleash your true power and potential.
There is something about engaging in competition, not only with others but deep within ourselves that can either hold us back or empower and change us. Most of us never make a change in our lives until it’s too painful not to change. When you don’t force change but intentionally choose it, you redefine possibility. As your awareness deliberately increases, your mind, and heart and soul will expand into new territory, new possibilities, and a new way of being.
Deugo guides you through Five Steps to Consciousness to become better in your sport than you ever thought possible, become more intentional, aligned and balanced in all aspects of your life, and discover your purpose, passion, and meaning. She lays out the tools to help you observe and shift your patterns of behavior, thought and emotion just as you would observe your patterns of movement in sport.
Changing your thoughts and emotions changes your life, and changes your world!
Wake up. Train intentionally. Find Flow. Use the power of consciousness to deliberately enhance your performance and your life.

It's about the journey, not the destination." Cindy embodies these words. Cindy's knowledge, approach, and presence have truly impacted my life. Cindy's depth is well beyond her coaching and training. The knowledge and insights Cindy has shared with me over the years are now captured in this book. Her coaching not only allowed me to complete five Ironman races (with the desire to do more), but more importantly, helped me understand the true meaning of, "it's about the journey, not the destination." On the surface, this book is about training for endurance sports, but if you read it carefully and reflect, you will find it is deeper than that.
I have known Cindy my whole life as she is one of my mom's best friends and past coach. She is someone I lean on when my heart and soul need someone to talk things out with. Cindy leads with her whole heart and fills any room she walks into with love. This book is crucial for the athlete, but more importantly, for the human behind the athlete, to achieve deep success.
For athletes interested in achieving peak performance, The Power of a Conscious Athlete is the book for you. Author Cindy Deugo focuses on setting intention and leveraging the mind and body harmoniously to achieve at the highest level one can imagine. As the coach of my son's high school crew team, I was able to witness Cindy Deugo teach each student athlete how to maximize their performance in a 100 percent positive atmosphere. She has the ability to translate to anyone how world-class athletes achieve greatness in sport. The tips, lessons, stories, and up-to-date sports science in this book are priceless. I highly recommend The Power of a Conscious Athlete to anyone who is interested in optimizing their performance in sport and in life.
