Calm, focus and confidence - the Attitude of a Champion

Winners Don't Win by Accident!

Winners set the scene for winning in everything they do, think and believe. Of course, they’ve put in the hours, but they have something else: a winner’s Mindset. They think like a champion, they talk like a champion, they walk like a champion. They take on The Attitude of a Champion. Believing you can win – believing you are a champion and that you deserve success – produces results.

Bruce not only works with athletes for peak performance, mental toughness and confidence. He also works to improve focus and pre-competition nervousness, remove mental blocks, regain confidence after injury, increase motivation, regain the joy of sport, compete like you practice and negative thought-stopping.

While our main focus is on athletes, the same tools and session structure work equally well with musicians and other high-performers.

Engage Your Unconscious Mind to Win

Most professional athletes spend a meaningful amount of their practice time working on their MINDSET. Visualization is often used to imagine the desired result. For instance, a weightlifter will visualize the perfect clean and jerk, seeing and feeling all of his muscles, each minor movement and adjustment through each step of the lift. By repeatedly visualizing these perfect movements, the body will be able to accomplish just that during competition. The same sort of visualizations can be used for, say, the pole vault - or any other sport. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis are tools to make visualizations more powerful.

Self-talk and affirmations cement the goals and desired results in the mind of the athlete and maintain focus and positive mindset - become unconscious actions during competition or games. Mindset work helps improve focus and concentration, relieves the stress of competition and pressure of performance. Self-hypnosis is the core tool that allows an athlete to become their own Mental Toughness Coach.

Hypnosis is like a Massage For Your Mind

Hypnosis induces a state of relaxation of body and mind, and a heightened awareness that is sometimes called a trance. You cannot feel any of life’s stresses or worries when under hypnosis. You feel happy, calm, peaceful and at ease. At the same time, while in a completely relaxed state, you are fully awake, mentally alert and can take in the hypnotist’s suggestions. Being in the Zone, or "in flow" are self-induced hypnotic states.

The word hypnosis refers to a state of mind in which the conscious mind is deeply relaxed. This state promotes better communication between the conscious and the subconscious mind by allowing thoughts to bypass the conscious mind and accept suggestions in line with your goals. This state enables changes in perception, a major increase in response to suggestion, and the potential for controlling many physiological functions that are usually involuntary.
