Sports Performance and Hypnosis

When it comes to all the myths and misconceptions about hypnosis there is one group of people who have used the power of hypnosis for sports improvement… athletes. Athletes use what has been referred to as guided imagery or visualization techniques. This is exactly the process of self hypnosis.

There is a timeless saying “what the mind believes the body achieves.” Using hypnosis or self hypnosis engages this process for we first see and do in our mind whatever it is we desire to achieve, which begins to create the deep belief it is possible and then we have an increased chance of actually achieving what we first created mentally. Using the subconscious mind to engage in the imagery and created visualization of what we desire has been written about in cultures around the world since there has been documentation. It’s not new and athletes use it routinely. Golf legend Jack Nicklaus once said, “Golf is a game of inches. The most important seven are between your ears.”
