Sport is not just physical. It is now recognised that it is just as much about the internal state as it is about the talent and competence possessed in a particular field.
Hypnosis and Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) Coaching can help the ‘‘The Internal Sports Star’ maximise their skills and go beyond their current potential.
NLP Coaching and Hypnosis will provide athletes with a wide range of internal resources and skills that they can use to master their sports and discipline. The resources and skills can be used across sports and within different strands of their sport practice.
The building blocks for becoming the internal sporting star are simple and highly effective, but are all to often neglected not only by ourselves but by conventional coaching systems.
These include:
- Relaxation (prior to and during ‘performance’)
- Concentration/Focus
- Imagination and Creativity
- Getting into the right zone for arousal
- Working with confidence
- Dealing with pain and injuries
- Physical and mental tension
- Imagining the perfect physical performance
- Harnessing energy and motivation
- Goal setting
- Anchoring good memories and experiences
- Projecting into the future (rehearsing)
- Getting in touch with all our senses
- The importance of rapport
- Putting ourselves in others’ shoes
- How we package ourselves
- How we manage success
- How we manage disappointment/failure
- How we can model success
I will look at each of these areas and through hypnosis and NLP coaching work to fine-tune how you perform mentally at your sport. I will work to increase your performance.
