'In the zone'
The 'zone' that all top performers and athletes enter is a hypnotic state.
Whether they are aware of it or not these successful achievers are self
hypnotising in order to block out any unnecessary thoughts and distractions
and so reach their maximum positive focus. Visualising success has now become
widely used for greater achievement but has been a mainstay of hypnotherapy
for a very long time.
Being taught these techniques by an expert can be a powerful aid for all who wish to perform better in any capacity, from professional golf tournaments to public speaking. It allows us to be able to reliably call on the very best of our abilities without blocks or negativity.
Widespread secret
Hypnotherapy is the secret weapon of many of the worlds top achievers including
performers, business people and sporting champions (Tiger Woods, Nick Faldo,
Jack Nicklaus, Ian Woosnam, Greg Rudedski, Adrian Moorhouse, Roger Black,
Andy Cole, Jimmy Connors, Mohammed Ali, Nigel Benn, Mike Tyson, Frank Bruno,
Michael Jordan...) have all openly admitted their secret.. they used hypnosis
to achieve more. However to maintain their advantage over contemporaries
most people keep it a secret.
How to perform well
In order to pass a test or interview, or to deliver a brilliant performance
of any kind, your mind nees to do four things well: prepare, focus, believe
and deliver.
With hypnosis coaching we develop your ability to remove
- anything that stops you preparing
(eg. reducing procrastination)
- anything that stops you focusing
(eg. resolving internal conflicts)
- anything that stops you believing
(eg. ending negative self talk)
- or anything that stops you delivering
(eg. improving poor recall).
We then work on improving
- everything that helps you prepare
(eg. increasing motivation and effective goal setting)
- everything that helps you focus
(eg. finding 'the zone' using self hypnosis)
- everything that helps you believe
(eg. anchoring positive experiences)
- and everything that helps you deliver
(eg. improving confidence)
With these four elements improved your best performances are likely to follow.

Treating performance issues with hypnotherapy, depends greatly on the nature of the issue but may involve:
Guided imagery
To take you somewhere tranquil, peaceful and relaxing. Nearly all clients
benefit from learning how to relax. When we know we can calm down and
relax however stressful the situation we build a sense of effectiveness
and a confidence in our ability to manage our own thoughts and emotions.
This frees us up to give our best when we need to.
Using hypnotic suggestions
for building self-esteem and motivation
Generally this is the first treatment most clients receive. Nearly everyone benefits from initial work on building self esteem. This is
because the sense of belief in our abilities influences how we feel,
think, motivate ourselves and behave.
Goal setting
Whether a driving test, interview, presentation or cup final it is possible
to prepare to the best of your ability every time. Clients can be coached
towards reaching their own goals using advanced NLP techniques.
Removing blocks
Negative associations that limit your ability to perform at your best
can be explored and released using hypnotherapy and hypnoanalysis or may be
completely removed using NLP.
Drawing on our best
Clients can learn how to draw on previous experiences of confidence and
success to develop a winning mentality rather than focusing on negative
history to drag themselves down. Using NLP anchoring these positive
feelings can be reproduced at any time, giving you a great boost when
it really matters.
Mentally rehearsing success in 'the zone'
In a state of deep hypnotic relaxation clients can learn to block
out distractions and unnecessary thoughts and reach their maximum positive
focus. Success can be repeatedly 'tasted' and visualised in clear detail,
preparing the mind to automatically function at this level.
Improve mental function
With unnecessary thoughts and distractions blocked out, post
hypnotic suggestions to improve recall and mental performance become
highly effective. The mind can begin to believe in its own abilities and
start to work at its free flowing best.
Self-hypnosis
Clients can learn how to combine all these techniques for themselves so
as to put themselves in the zone, visualise their approaching success,
summon their very best frame of mind and perform at their utmost whenever
they need to.
