Staying In The Zone

I'm sure that you have heard of being "In The Zone". In sports, this is a natural state of trance that we can achieve in which everything on the field or court seems to slow down and the game comes easily to the player.

 

Mental focus, concentration, and visualization are vital, especially in sports. Adding a mental training regimen to physical and sport-specific training can greatly increase confidence, consistency and ability.

​

One of the best ways to succeed in sports is through hypnosis, which can slow down the whole mental process for athletes, so you can achieve being in the zone in mind, body, and spirit.

​

A broad definition of hypnosis is a state of consciousness characterized by certain physiological and psychological attributes such as relaxation, slowed breathing, and enhanced receptivity to suggestion. It allows for increased access to unconscious thoughts, memories, and emotions. Hypnosis is particularly effective at allowing you to improve visualization and seeing things from another perspective.

A Holistic Approach

The use of hypnosis coupled with your training regimen typically focuses on performance enhancement through concentration and stress reduction. At Bright Tomorrows Hypnosis, Center we focus on growth, healing and transformation. This approach allows for greater performance. We use hypnosis as a way to focus the mind and spirit as well as the body in achieving your goals.

​

There are always many things influencing the mental health and functioning of an athlete. This includes identity issues, personal competence, and career planning.  Athletes must also consider issues related to their level of participation and achievement. For athletes whose sole focus is on their sport, identity and social connections may be entirely dependent on their athletic involvement and success, further adding to the pressures of performance, often with dire consequences, both in the sport and in personal lives.

Athletes Benefit From Hypnosis

 

Athletes open to the idea of reducing stress, honing concentration, increasing motivation, and staying in the zone, can benefit from hypnosis. Athletes who are going through stressful times, recovering from injuries, or hitting a wall may be especially helped by it. It may be your first time dealing with physical limitations, leaving you wondering how you will perform in the future. It can be useful for all levels of athletes.

​

Today, most professional sports teams employ hypnotists and psychologists to help give athletes the mental concentration they need to succeed. In studying the best athletes and sports stars, it becomes apparent that the common edge they all have in achieving “being in the zone” begins with mental and emotional health.
