Right now she’s in spin and damage control.

So did she drop out of the individual events or just the team events?

Let's see... "...The study found that mindfulness meditators had worse physical and mental health than non-meditators, including higher levels of pain, headaches, stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia and acute illness."

Well, shoot, sounds like a winning plan to me!

She was very unprofessional, IMO.

I’m a man so I can’t really understand stopping what Iove to work on “mindfullness”. Sounds woke as hell.

First thing I thought when the basketball team lost was they threw the game on purpose.....when I heard this I thought the same thing.....is it just minorities protesting in a new way, by losing on purpose or am I just paranoid like I think I am?

Wouldn't focusing on "mindfulness" be something like doing it for the team even when she wasn't feeling it?

Maybe she can work on her "positivity" and her "brand" next. - said with either vocal fry or vocal uptick or both...

No one put a gun to her head and forced her to take part in the Olympics..she decided to do it..two weeks ago when she qualified she was happy as a clam, because she was kicking butt and in first place..but since she stumbled at the games,s he needed a way out and came up with the “Mental issues” BS..

Simone’s pretty smart. I think she just decided she didn’t want a complete trainwreck to be remembered as her last Olympics.

I wait with bated breath for her book, blaming white supremacy, to come out.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda will never haunt her. She’s looking for excuses, not insight.

“Mindfulness” is a side effect of being “woke”. The people of this classification are in continual therapy, trying to figure out what “triggers” them.

I heard her name before but I knew nothing about what she does other than compete as a gymnast. Any competition that is scored entirely by judges isn’t a real sport anyway.

Our parents and elementary teachers always taught mindfulness.

It was always worded, “SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP.”

Who’s been in her head lately? I smell a woke rat.

WHAT? I was looking forward to her crushing everyone, was proud of her. Felt bad when I heard they had a medical issue (presume an injury).

What the heck is mindfulness, and did this just come up? Meanwhile you got that Russian gymnastics kid with an Achilles tendon injury far from being healed and he gives it all to help his team get the Gold.

When I was a boy, we called this “choking”.

She started off with several mistakes, then bailed.

Perhaps she should have assessed her mental readiness earlier?
