Product reviews for Winning the Mind Game

David Slater, The Hypnotherapist
There is no doubt about the fact that during the past decade, Hypnotherapy has certainly gained momentum and acceptance and has earned its place in the health care of many people. Techniques are used in a wide variety of problems many of them emotional and medical, but not exclusively so.

Hypnosis is a valuable tool that can be used quickly and effectively to create influencing strategies in the subconscious mind to create lasting change within the patient. This can be to reduce anxiety or fight phobias. More and more it is also found to be an invaluable tool in the preparation of sportsmen. It can promote lasting changes within the athletes.

This exciting book contains a wide range of interventions that can be used by the therapist with sportsmen as individuals or as teams to enhance performance, etc.

It includes:

a clear step-by-step guide for working with sportsmen

a guide to using hypnosis with groups and teams

Transcripts of proven successful interventions

detailed case studies

details on how to promote this side of your business.

It is a book ideal for anyone who works with sportsmen and teams either professionally or as a hobby. It also is an excellent guide to anyone who is already in the business of hypnotherapy to expand business into what is more commonly called these days, sports psychology.

This book leaves no stones unturned, no questions unanswered. It has been carefully written by its coauthors and is an immensely readable piece of literature. So much sport, in fact so much of Iife, is almost entirely dependent upon the way that we think so this book is that guide we have been looking for to help people “win the mind game”.

The book is easy-to-use and comprehensive and gives excellent step-by-step guidance for its development. I can think of a few football and cricket teams which could do with help at the moment. How about your local? Well ... it may be worth considering!

Highly recommended! and I am only an armchair sportsman but I can see great potential for its use here.
