Sports Enhancement Hypnosis at Act Now Hypnosis & Wellness Center in Orlando
Sports Enhancement Hypnosis helps athletes to remove external pressures and anxiety.
Mental training is being increasingly recognized as an integral component of athletes’ training. Relying solely on skills and craftsmanship has become inadequate in the field of competitive sports, where athletes are continually exposed to external pressures and anxiety. Hypnosis helps most athletes to completely remove any outside interference such as noise, pressures and anxiety at will and enter entirely into the “zone”.
Sport psychology essentially pertains to understanding:
•
what
motivates
athletes
•
how
to
enable
athletes
to
regulate
their
thoughts
accordingly
With such mental training exercises, sports psychology helps to:
•
manage
stress
and
arousal
states
•
optimize
performance
levels
Hypnosis has been used in sport for at least the last 50 years, and has recently seen a renewed interest from both the research community and sports participants. Numerous well-known sportspeople have used hypnosis in the past, including boxers Frank Bruno, Steve Collins and Nigel Benn, former England cricket captain Mike Brearley, athlete Iwan Thomas, and golfer Ian Woosnam.
More recently, there have been a number of high profile sportspeople who have used hypnosis, including ASP Tour surfer Russell Winter, and Beijing Olympic champions Vince Hancock (Olympic Skeet) and Steve Hooker (Pole Vault). Hypnosis is also used in team settings, with Crystal Palace and Swindon Town employing the services of a hypnotherapist.
The mind-body connection has immense power. It can make or break an athlete’s performance.
Peak performance is achieved when mental training is effective. Getting started is always slightly difficult because you feel uncertain when you begin any new endeavor.
