Interesting little item on folks handling stress. This guy worked with Chris Kaman and discovered that he wasn't exactly ADHD...something different. To be honest I couldn't understand it. Anyway the gist of the Dirkster link is that well..

Dirk just isn't like the rest of us.

Kaman has found help with the psychological treatment program involving neurofeedback and biofeedback. He was misdiagnosed with attention deficit disorder as a toddler, but Tim Royer and Brad Oostindie of Hope 139 determined Kaman's problem was opposite in that his brain waves ran too fast.
.....
Royer in the past year connected NBA star Dirk Nowitzki and golf great Annika Sorenstam to his computer. He also has worked extensively with another Vandenberg student, LPGA Tour player Tracy Hanson, who now is introducing the product to other golfers.


"We found some people, like Dirk Nowitzki and Annika, are already genetically wired very well," Royer said.


"Some people are wired better genetically, and they control their brain and emotions better. Others, like Andy, we can help get there, and Tracy feels it's the goose that laid the golden egg, the thing she has been looking for years in her golf game. Talent and athletic ability only get you so far."
