[b]Everyone has a ritual[/b]

I have heard of crazy pre game rituals from carrying a number of lucky items to not washing your socks. I try to incorporate rituals, especially during a downswing, that may have some added benefit to my game. I like to wash down supplements like DHA and Ginko Biloba with protein shakes and do light cardio. If I plan to take the day off of poker because it was really THAT BAD, heavy cardio might be in order. 10 minutes a day of  deep breathing exercises also helps to keep my blood pressure in range. Keeping BP down helps curb any rattled nerves when I am deep in the money.
 Do things that *might help later* is my advice! Pick a great player at the top and watch him or her on their journey when you feel the burn. See how they handle variance, bad beats, and full on downswings. Do like your idol does which is probably step down 1 level and build back up again with more skills next time around.

P.S. Alwsys envision the win. Envision the blank card that keeps your hand in the lead. Never allow the nightmare cards you need to avoid to enter your brain. My game turned a huge corner when I started that practice.
