Problem — What’s Holding You Back from Performing Your Best
You’ve probably heard the sayings . . .
These are not just sayings — your mind truly is your most important asset in any kind of performance.
But when your performance is not what you want it to be, it’s usually not your Conscious Mind that’s the problem, it’s your Unconscious Mind.
Imagine trying to perform in your chosen sport while consciously thinking about every single move you are making. Like when your first learned to drive a car or ride a bike, there are so many things to think about at once that it seems difficult because the Conscious Mind is trying to keep up with it all.
But the Conscious Mind is not designed to think that way. Over time, all of these details become skills in your “muscle memory” and in your Unconscious Mind so that you don’t’ have to think about every little thing at once.
That’s when you can perform at your highest and best level.
Even once you’ve developed the muscle memory, you may still have mental blocks or set backs from “bad days,” that can cause you to have blocks / barriers that prevent you from performing your best, such as:
Negative Emotions hurt your performance by weighing you down. Limiting Beliefs hurt your performance by holding you back from doing your best. You need a fast, safe, and reliable way of eliminating both of these problems.
Then you need to have envision and establish clear, realistic, and achievable Performance Goals.
Plus, you need to know how to anchor and get into resourceful states of mind when you need them, like Focus, Confidence, Competence, a Calm Mind, Excitement, Motivation, and Self Esteem, and feeling positively Powerful — all of which contribute to your High Performance Winning Mindset.
Also, of course, if you have any bad habits, like partying too much, laziness when you should be training, alcohol, drugs, or too much distraction from dating opportunities, you need to manage those as well.
Then, if you’re like most athlete, eventually you have injury or pain that hinders your performance. We can help you get your mind in a place where it can support fast healing
Finally, as often happens with athletes, you may just need to up your discipline in your training schedule, diet, or exercise routine.
Promise — How Hypnosis and NLP Help You Perform Your Best
All of the challenges listed above are what our Athlete Performance Enhancing Hypnosis and NLP Coaching Program will help you with, to achieve your highest aspirations in your chosen athletic field.
Release Negative Emotions — Using Hypnotic Time Line Therapy™ Processes we will help you quickly, easily, and naturally release any Negative Emotions, such as Anger, Sadness, Fear, Hurt, Guilt or minor ones like frustration that may be weighing you down and hindering your performance.
Delete Limiting Beliefs — Also, Using Hypnotic Time Line Therapy™ Processes, we will help you quickly, easily, and naturally delete any Limiting Beliefs, such as “I’m not good enough,” “I don’t know if I can,” “I don’t deserve it,” or “No one in my family has ever done this before” (these are just examples) that are holding you back from performing at your best.
nstall Empowering Beliefs — Having the belief that you can win and the attitude that you will do what it takes to win is the most important element of all in winning. Once we remove any Limiting Beliefs you may have, we will install winning beliefs in your Unconscious Mind that will support your ability to win more consistently.
Set and Achieve Goals — Using our Creating Your Future™ hypnotic process, which includes guided imagery and visualization, we will help you set simple, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timed goals in your Unconscious Mind in a way that you will definitely achieve them.
- Have you ever gone to sleep thinking about a problem or question that you didn’t know the solution or answer to, and then when you wake up in the morning, the answer seemed to “fall out of the sky” and hit you when you weren’t even thinking about it? That’s a common human experience.
- The answer just appeared because when you fell asleep thinking about it, you were telling your Unconscious Mind to solve the problem or find the answer. So when your Conscious Mind was asleep, your Unconscious Mind, that is designed to serve you (once given instructions) went to work and came up with the solution/answer.
- In the same way, we will help you install your goals in your Unconscious Mind in a way that will be programmed to help you achieve them, even when you are not thinking about it consciously. Your Unconscious Mind will then start serving up to your Conscious Mind things like the “next steps” you next to take, where, when, and how, to support you in achieving the goal, so that
Anchor and Activate Resourceful States of Mind — We will help you identify your most resourceful states that you need to call on, within yourself, to help you perform at your highest level, such as Focus, Confidence, Competence, a Calm Mind, Excitement, Motivation, and Self Esteem, and feeling Powerful.
Rapidly Recover from Injuries — Although neither we nor our techniques can “heal” you, and we’re not licensed medical professionals, the “Placebo Effect” has scientifically proven that your thinking can determine whether and how fast you get better. We can help you get your mind set such that it gives your body the best chance of healing as rapidly and completely as possible.
Manage Pain from Old Injuries without Drugs — Although pain is a signal that sometimes should be attended to medically, sometimes pain from old injuries that have healed can be from Negative Emotions that are stored in the body. For those types of situations, where the body has healed and is structurally sound, we teach you how to eliminate, reduce pain, and manage pain so that it no longer hinders your athletic performance.
Eliminate Bad Habits — If you have bad habits that are hindering your performance (for example, smoking, drinking, diet, drugs, or distractions), we can help you eliminate them and replace them.
Install Necessary Disciplines — If you lack the discipline you need to train, eat well, sleep well, exercise well, or maybe you have a poor form in your chosen athletic performance, we can help you install the proper discipline that you need to perform your best.

The result, of course, was a performance of perfection, presented with charm, poise and confidence, culminating in a gold medal.
- In 1996, Irish boxer Steve Collins used hypnosis for the Middleweight Boxing Championship of the world against Chris Eubank. The suggestion under hypnosis was to throw two punches for every one of reigning champion Eubank’s. In the bout Steve Collins threw twice as many punches as Eubank approximately 600 to 300 and became champion of the world.
- A Wall Street Journal article (February 11, 2002) brings recognition to the field of hypnotherapy. Bronze medal Olympic champion Adam Malysz used hypnosis for his ski jump victory: “And before ascending the ramp and lurching down that icy slide in the 90-meter event, he descended an imaginary staircase-20 slow deep steps into a trance.”

Professional Baseball
- Perhaps one of the most famous examples of hypnotherapy in professional sports is the story of the great baseball player, Rodney Carew, who played from 1967 to 1985. After suffering an injury which had technically healed, he was still experiencing pain symptoms and an elevated sense of self-doubt. Carew began to work with a hypnotherapist and he eventually came back to the best season of his entire career, with a batting score of almost .400, and went on to win ‘The most valuable player award’!
- The entire 1983 Chicago White Sox baseball team used hypnosis to help win their division and reach the playoffs that year.

- Mohammed Ali began using hypnosis shortly after he lost to boxer Ken Norton, who had used hypnosis training before he famously defeated Mohammed Ali in 1973. Ken was a 7 to 1 underdog going into the fight.
- Even heavy-weight boxing champion Mike Tyson had a personal hypnotist named John Halpin.
