To have a good understanding of sports hypnosis, read what is hypnosis and the mind model .

Hypnosis in sport has a long history and was often used under the guise of 'mental training' back when the public perception of the whole area of hypnotism was much more guarded. These days however, you do not need to look too far in any sport to find great champions using hypnotic techniques to improve performance. The worlds number one golfer Tiger Woods being the most famous. All professional sportsmen/women now use visualisation as an important part of their preparation.

Gil Boyne (one of the USA's famous hypnotherapists) – assisted US gymnast Mary Lou Retton to prepare for her performance in the 1984 Olympics where she won gold in the allround event in addition to four other medals. For her it was visualising a set of perfect routines. But it doesn't end there ...

To maximise your performance – 'Get in the Zone' ...

Hypnosis in sports has been known for a very long time as; visualisation, concentration, focusing, the zone, etc. All professional sports teams, Institutes, clubs, people, around the world employ the services of either a Mind Coach, psychologist or a sports hypnotist, it is standard procedure in the professional sporting arena today.

If you have read what is hypnosis you’ll know that it doesn’t take long to enter the alpha state.
To enter the alpha state; it requires the mind to shift from a conscious state of awareness (waking state) to the peak performance state (alpha state). Anytime we still the mind or use the imagination we engage the subconscious mind. And if you have read the mind model you will know that this is the more powerful – goal achieving mind.

Sports Hypnosis is used by many top professionals in a wide range of sports such as:
Golf - Football - Snooker - Tennis - Rugby - Cricket - Athletics - Gymnastics - Swimming - Cycling Skiing - Motor Racing - Table Tennis - Archery - Martial Arts - Soccer - Basketball - Baseball - Cricket and many more - the list is almost endless …

Using the conscious (willpower) mind is a short term fix

If we attempt to use our willpower over the more powerful subconscious mind, this is very much a short term proposition, as the willpower is based within the conscious mind, it is limited and will on ALL occasions lose out to the emotional – subconscious mind.

When that pinnacle time comes, you need to know within your mind that you will have mental clarity. You need to be strong both mentally and emotionally. If you have any negative habits programmed within you from an early age. This can sometimes be called upon come that pinnacle moment. If for some reason you are not achieving the performance you know you can; ask yourself are you being held back by something; or maybe you erroneously believe you cannot do it.

When the body is working on adrenaline you need to be able to stay calm and focused, because working in a stressful body you are working within the sympathetic nervous system which speeds up the breathing, heart rate etc. This uses up far too much energy in the wrong areas. IN2MINDS can teach you to calm your mind during peak performance, and at that pinnacle moment of 'make or break'.

To compete at the top level: sportsmen and women need to have a high level of agility, flexibility, coordination, reaction time, strength, endurance, balance, and cardio respiratory function. All of which are controlled from the subconscious – unconscious level of the mind.

Do you set yourself targets to achieve and for some reason unknown, fail to achieve them...

If your performance is not up to standard and you’re not achieving results. IN2MINDS can help you gain mental clarity, increase your motivation and improve your mental focus. Simply by checking with the subconscious mind, we can find out if there are any limited beliefs within the mind which may be restricting you from achieving your goals. Once these areas have been successfully taken care of, the mind will have more clarity and the body more energy. Now moving forward without any past unconscious restrictions being placed upon you, thus enabling you to have full access and control of your subconscious mind.

Wouldn't it be great to have the tools whenever you needed them? Knowing exactly how to coach yourself both mentally and emotionally. Studies tell us that this is the key to success both on and off the course/playing field/arena – it's what separates the best players from the rest. Emotions have a tendency to snowball, they can spiral in a positive or negative direction. Its up to you.

I can teach you the same tools that allowed ladies world number one golfer, Anika Sorestram to become the best golfer in the world for many years. 'When Tiger Woods last won the US Masters he was asked after his third round who will be there at the end' he replied, "The person who controls their emotions best ..."

We all have the ability to achieve a higher level of performance and sports hypnosis is a very natural, powerful and effective way of getting there. Research tells us that sport is 95% a mental activity, and yet most sports people spend only a fraction of their training this area of their game plan.

Using the subconscious mind is a long term outcome
