SPORTS PERFORMANCE

Details

Everyone knows that being a successful sports performance usually involves maintaining high levels of physical fitness. However, this is only part of the strategy required for success. According to research, sports performance has more to do with mental abilities than physical abilities. To many people this may sound like a strange concept, but thousands of sports people have recognised the power of their mental state having a positive effect on their sports performance. Hypnosis has been used for many years to help professional athletes enhance their natural ability and even the famous golfer Tiger Woods regularly uses hypnosis. Hypnotherapy can often help with rugby, golf, running, football, cricket, boxing, darts, swimming, fishing and most other sports. Every sports person, whether currently successful or not, has internal resources. Accessing these inner resources and putting them to work is often the advantage successful performers have. Hypnotherapy can improve and enhance an individual’s mental attitude by helping them to relax, removing anxieties and boosting confidence. Each individual is different, so results will vary from person to person, however in general, individuals can use hypnosis to maintain composure, overcome distractions and fears and gain confidence in their ability. So whether you are trying to break in to that first team, improve your focus and decision making or perhaps just get that confidence to back yourself and go for it at the right times then hypnotherapy can support you to achieve your goals. ​ The brain can’t distinguish between doing something or imagining doing something so visualising winning a competition can help tune your mind for success. If the human mind is capable of imagining something, it's capable of making it happen. • Hypnotherapy can help you improve your performance in many different ways: • Improve their confidence and self-belief • Remove negative thoughts or beliefs • Increase motivation and dedication • Use deep relaxation and concentration to imagine success • Maintain composure and overcome distractions.
