Sports Hypnosis
The final seconds of the game are ticking away. You know the entire crowd is watching you. You hear their cheers from the stands. You feel the support of your teammates from the sidelines. The sweat is dripping off your forehead. Your heart is racing. It’s all come down to this one play. You’ve practiced this a hundred times before. You’ve prepared yourself for a moment just like this. Your coach calls the play.
Your mind goes blank. The clock ticks to 00:00. You completely forgot the play.
And just like that, the game ends.
Is anxiety holding you back from being the athlete you want to be? Most athletes – professionals and weekend warriors alike – devote all of their training to their bodies. They focus on the physical and tend to neglect the psychological. Have you ever witnessed the best athlete on a team miss the game winning free throw? What about the field goal that would capture the state championship? Unfortunately, it happens. These athletes have what we at Monterey Hypnosis acknowledge as athlete anxiety. Our Sports Hypnosis sessions are our answers to helping our clients perform to their full potential.
You practice hard so you can play hard. When it comes to game day, you expect to perform your best. So what holds you back? Being an athlete isn’t easy. Aside from strenuous workouts and practices that put enormous physical strain on the body, the pressure to be the best is overwhelming. No one wants to sit the bench. Everyone wants to be the star athlete. However, the pressure placed upon us by ourselves and others can have detrimental effects, especially when it comes to the mind. And although we may not always think about it, our mind has a huge effect on our physical performance. Through sports hypnosis sessions, Clinical Hynotherapist Larry Conte will help you erase the anxiety you face before a big game. By taking the focus off of your worries, you will be able to focus on what is important – the game.
When an athlete is hypnotized, the mind enters a highly focused state. Awareness of our surroundings dissipates, creating an environment in which the mind is overly suggestible. Think about it as though you were reading a book or watching a movie. How often has someone said something to you while doing one of these activities, but you were too focused to notice they said anything at all? Hypnosis works in parallel fashion. We aren’t focused on what is going on around us. Our worries are no longer in the forefront of our mind. The conscience mind becomes temporarily detached and the subconscious mind, which controls our behavior, takes over and is wide open to suggestion. This is where Larry Conte is able to reprogram the mind to handle pre-game stress.
Coaches are famous for saying “Get your head in the game” to their athletes. Sports Hypnosis will help you do just that. Not only will your head be in the game, but it will stay there. Focus will stay where it belongs. Your customary worries and troubles will not step with you onto the field. You will become skilled at techniques that get you fired up for the game. Best of all, you will be fired up without anxiety. The same strategy used in games is applied to practices. You may find that you are able to run through plays easily in your head during the school day, but when it comes to practice, you draw a blank and can’t run the play. It’s all in your head (no pun intended). We’ll help you get rid of the unwanted stress and replace it with a focused, “ready to play” mindset.
Sports Hypnosis is a safe and natural technique that athletes have been using for years to reduce sports performance anxiety. Not only is it safe, but it has absolutely no side effects. As an athlete, your body is an instrument. Medications for anxiety are often accompanied by unwanted side effects, which can put negative strain on that instrument. In the past, you may have thought these medications were your only option. Monterey Hypnosis has a superior option for you. We respect that you are on a mission to keep your body in the best shape and health possible. Sports Hypnosis will not interfere with that mission.
