It’s my pleasure to introduce the first pre-competition visualization by Heidi Fearon. Heidi has been our healer and secret weapon for all of our competitive athletes for the last couple of years. Despite my pleading, she is happy to share some of her visualization techniques with the entire Invictus community to help everyone achieve their best results throughout the Open.
