Hypnosis in Sport in York
Dedicated athletes/sports people work very hard at training their bodies – they push themselves to the limit, working for hours to improve their game or manoeuvre and performance.
It is believed by many sports psychologists that between 80% - 90% of an athlete’s performance is in the mind – i.e. Using their imagination, thought processes and attitudes to provide incentive and reinforcement of their physical skills in order to
1 Increase agility
2 Improve co-ordination
3 Improve concentration
4 Remove negative thoughts
5 Relieve physical conditions, tension, stress, butterflies, shortness of breath etc that can occur before a game and threaten their performance.
Generally speaking sports people and top athletes are very single minded and focused on the sport/s that they participate in. You could say that they are in a ‘hypnotic (altered) state’ due to the concentration and focus they are giving at that time to the task/participation.
Hypnosis can help an athlete/sports person in many ways including
1 Overcoming fears and pressures
2 Preparing for a perfect game
3 Developing the winning attitude
4 Accomplishing a specific goal
Through a combination of skills I can help you to achieve your specific goals in your chosen sport. I can help to give your team more confidence in their performance, achieve better results and be more focused on outcomes.
Athletes like Johnny Wilkinson and Tiger Woods are among the many top athletes who use visualisation techniques to achieve top performance levels and win.
