A Musical Hypnosis Session for Peak Performers?

by

Yeah. That’s what this is. It’s literally a hypnosis session in a song format…THIS is why they call me the “Singing Hypnotist”…

Even if this song is not your favored musical style, listen to it over and over again… or watch it over and over again… there have been days and weeks when I just had it playing softly in the background. Your unconscious mind hears EVERYTHING. So USE that. Let this get stuck in your head. “Ear Worms” don’t have to be annoying they can be powerful tools to keep you on track without you having to consciously THINK about it.

 

Also, remember that most performance issues are based on some pattern or habit of anxious thinking. Anxiety is thinking about what you do NOT want to have happen and your body responding to that powerful suggestion with all the same fight or flight chemistry that real bad events would cause if they were actually happening…  to learn more about how you can take charge of your own “head trash” and DUMP it, check out my best selling online hypnosis course, “How to CRUSH anxiety NOW!”

Help for Peak Performance For Athletes with Mental Blocks or Glitches

by

Almost every Fall I get calls from desperate parents of peak performance high school and college athletes desperate for help. The usual scenario is that their daughter or son suddenly can’t do something that they used to be able to do. Call it a mental block or a performance “glitch,” Chuck Knobloch syndrome, or being a “head case,” it’s a cause of deep pain and concern. Whether it’s a specific tumble or move in gymnastics, cheerleading, baseball, figure skating, or even in the arts of Ballet, music or theater, they used to do this one thing spectacularly but now they can’t seem to do it at all. At stake is often hundreds of dollars in college scholarships or championship games that they will be “benched” for, the pain and suffering is real. The pressure is real. The pattern is starting to sink in and depression and discouragement are getting heavier and heavier.

The solution is not to search the world wide web for some “miracle worker” or sports psychologist or hypnotist who can “fix” it. The solution is for the student to learn to run their own mind.

That’s where I come in. Most of the “experts” have never experienced anything remotely like the blocks or neurological interference that these athletes or performers are experiencing.

I have.

In fact I never even had a chance to became an athlete because I did exactly the kinds of things with my mind in elementary school that caused me to want to quit that these kids are doing NOW.

I also did the same self sabotaging neurological processes with my musical performing.

But ultimately I had to learn how to run my OWN mind.

So that’s what I do with athletes. I first explore with them HOW they are doing the problem. This is usually an unconscious process until I help them to tease it out of themselves.

Then I can teach them the same tools that I’ve used now for over 20 years and that I’ve taught to countless others in person and online.

My suggestion if you or your child is struggling with this is to check out my “How To CRUSH anxiety NOW!” course and practice those tools and techniques.

Sports performance blocks are 99% of the time Performance Anxiety. Anxiety is focusing your mind on what you DO NOT want to have happen. Changing your focus is a PRACTICE that anyone can do. But most people don’t realize that THEY are the cause of their blocks or what in the world they can do to break through them and get back to winning.

Anyway, THIS song is actually a hypnosis session all about this. Give it a listen. No. It’s not “hip hop.” It’s not the most modern “cool” crunchy urban grunge rhythm. But it DOES work.

It works because it’s filled with “Why” and “how” questions which combined with music get “stuck” in the rostromedial prefrontal cortex of your brain.

Chuck Knoblauch Before and After

by

chuck knoblauch youngWhen he first arrived in the Major Leagues, 2nd baseman, Chuck Knoblauch was an astonishingly gifted athlete.

To understand the enormity of the tragedy of this man’s baseball career you have to watch these two videos.

The question that haunts us is, “What happened between beginning part of Chuck Knbolauch’s career where he was right on the money every time and the later part where he could no longer throw accurately to first?

Fast forward to 2000 and this incredibly talented player is being reviled in the media for his wild throwing. In this report he hit a woman in the stands with one wild throw:

Chuck Knoblauch not only is hurting the New York Yankees with his wild throws, he’s hurting their fans, too.

The scatter-armed second baseman made another wild throw Saturday, this one hitting a woman sitting behind the first-base dugout in a game against the Chicago White Sox.

Or Kieth Olbermann targeting him as one of the year’s worst:

I don’t know if Chuck sought the help of a hypnotherapist or NLP Master Practitioner, but this is not an isolated incidence. This “champion” to “chump” process is going on all the time even on the high school and collegiate level. Combine the pressure to perform with public scrutiny and you have a recipe for destroying the delicate balance that makes a gifted athlete great.

Talent is great but it doesn’t win big time games

Talent contributes… but it is mental toughness and the ability to snap back after a mistake or a defeat that determines who will be the champion.

The fix in situations like this is not more physical practice.

What is required is an understanding of how your mind works and how to change “one time learning events” that are often the root cause of a sudden drop in ability.

That’s where Sports Hypnosis and Mental Toughness Training come in.

The difference can be rapid and significant. Why not get the edge that is quietly waiting for you in your unconscious mind?
