Whether you play golf, cricket, football, rugby, hockey , tennis or whatever other sport consider the benefits of mind training to enhance your performance.
Many clients of mine from the world of golf have testified to the benefits of mind training. Young boxers have come to improve their winning performance with me. I have had clients from the world of shooting, running and horse riding who have all achieved their full potential through getting mind fit !

Those of you watching The 2006 World Cup will have all seen performances where mind over matter won the day or lost the match. Penalty shoot outs are just one such area. How did Italy summon the strength to score two goals in the closing minutes of extra time in the final match? Was it an attitude of mind that made the difference?

Check out all the comments made by sports commentators during the August 2004 Olympics in Athens.

A few examples:

The Men's 1500 metres. El Guerrouj won gold because he wanted to , more than his nearest rival Lagat of Kenya.

Kelly Holmes' excellent performance in winning her 1500 metre heat was put down to the fact that even though she hadn't slept much the night before, she was in winning mood after her gold medal for the 800 metres.

And for those of you considering some work to improve your boxing, note the whole mental attitude of the young lightweight Bolton boxer Khan during his bouts.

Check out what the BBC Sports page on cricket said on 27 August 2003 about the difference between England and South Africa's performances. Michael Vaughan talked about the 'culture of fear' in England and the fact that ' Englishman still scoff at the notion of improved performance through attitude but South Africa have performed above the sum of their collective parts.'


Now read on about the benefits of mind training for mountain bikers and the work I have done with Matt Hart of Torq Training


The Torq Weekend; hypnotherapy and mountain bikers.

Wow! Mountain bikers certainly are a receptive bunch of individuals!
The workshops started with an introduction to the gentle if powerful art of 'mind training’ with instructions for overcoming stress and anxiety .
A second invitation came from Matt Hart of Torq Training who had heard a champion cyclist’s account of how hypnotherapy had improved his performance.
After a group session of question and answer and a gentle group relaxation, four of the group had decided to really go for it and have a one to one session with me. I was able to teach everyone self hypnosis, a natural, useful tool to help banish pre and during race anxiety and sort out confidence and race performance issues.

I then helped train Matt's group for the team event of the cycling eqivalent of Le Mans, Mountain Madness.

A word of warning however. Self hypnosis is only as good as the person who uses it and is not a miracle cure. So, just as you need to train your body on a regular basis to achieve peak performance, so you need to train your mind regularly to accept mentally that you will perform at your peak as often as possible. In other words, use the technique or lose it!
Everyone who wants to perform better should give mind training a whirl and it should really be used regularly to build up different techniques for different situations, just the same as with physical training.
