 Sports Hypnosis Techniques
Let’s recall the names of Mike Brearley, former Cricket Captain of England, Alison Rodger, shot put champion of Olympics, Nigel Benn, WBC Super Middleweight Champion, and golfers, Ian Woosnam and Tiger Woods. All these eminent sports personas not only blatantly rely upon their sheer talent and perseverance but also devote time and energy on mental training along with physical ones. Sports hypnosis techniques are a part of mental training where a client’s subconscious mind prevails over conscious mind evading the irrational fears, phobias, negativity and replacing them with optimism, self confidence and motivation.
At the stressful moment of competition a sportsman emancipates a higher rate of hormones like insulin, cortisol and adrenaline, which are stored as fats in our body causing diseases like high blood cholesterol, Cancer, stroke, diabetes, cardiac problems and high blood pressure. Sports hypnosis heightens the metabolic rate in human body and reduces the ill effects of these stress hormones on human mind, preventing irrational, superfluous and fabricated fears and anxieties as well.
