Peak Performance.
Hypnosis is an extremely powerful and effective way for enhancing concentration and success in work, school, and sports. We use it quite extensively for performance enhancement.
Those who achieve and excel are those who become completely absorbed in the pursuit of a goal and who supplement their inherent abilities with an investment of time, energy, and faith in themselves. They have a clear vision of their own possible future and they are willing to do whatever it takes to make that vision into a reality. The appeal of that successful future gives them the dedication and energy it takes to practice an activity long enough for the unconscious to master it. Once they have attained some degree of mastery, their faith in themselves allows them to trust their own well-sub-conscious to accomplish their goals. Finally, they are able to focus intently on the task at hand and stay relaxed enough to not get in their own way. They are rewarded for all of this by amazement at their accomplishments and a sense of well-being along the way.
Procrastination, lack of motivation, anxiety, and self-consciousness often block performance and prevent people from living up to their own expectations. We use a variety of hypnosis techniques to overcome those blocks.
Replacing roadblocks is only the first step. If one hopes to succeed in any activity, that activity must be studied, rehearsed, or practiced to the point of mastery. When knowledge or skills are mastered, they become automatically available or “unconscious”. The acquisition of new skills and information is best accomplished without a lot of conscious criticism or interference. Thus, both learning and performance are best accomplished in a completely relaxed yet highly observant state of awareness, a mind comparable to the hypnotic trance state.
An advantage of a trance state is that it allows a person to experience a realistic immersion in imaginary practice or rehearsal sessions. Imagined rehearsal of a successful performance enhances self-confidence and reduces performance anxiety. This technique can be used for virtually any activity, from practicing the piano to rehearsing a speech or anticipating successful performance in a football game or on a test.
