Can hypnosis help with sports performance?
There are many athletes who have used hypnosis for sports success. Most professional sports teams include a sports psychologist who helps athletes with their mental concentration. The best athletes and sportspeople all have a common edge of being able to achieve the mental state of “being in the zone”. This is the subconscious mind goes into autopilot and your attention is totally focused.
Hypnotherapy for sports performance
Hypnotherapy for sports performance is about the mind/body connection. Let us help you to develop the mental strength to perform your best. Do you:
- Experience conflicting emotions?
- Fear failure?
- Experience a sinking feeling before an event?
- Give in too early?
- Get mixed messages of thought?
- Doubt your ability?
- At key moments have reduced self-belief?
Hypnotherapy can enhance sports performance because our bodies respond to the way that we act, feel and think. Since neurotransmitters are always travelling to and from your brain to the cells of our body our mental and physical self are in constant communication.
The mind-body connection
The subconscious mind and physical body are linked for sure and combining psychology and neuroscience is paramount for a holistic understanding of the mechanism that underlies human behaviour.
Through balancing the mind and body and encouraging the transmission of messages hypnosis helps people to achieve optimum focus and thus performance. This is highly beneficial for athletes and when people are trying to overcome psychological and physical resistance to activities.
