The majority of golfers whether amateur or professional golfers, spend as much as they can afford purchasing the latest and best equipment available, are they missing the more important picture. 90% of any sport we play starts in the mind , the other 10% is used in the actual physical action of the game. How many golfers do you know who have actually thought about improving their game by using the hidden power of their mind, most will quite happily go out and spend large amounts of money on the latest clubs and accessories in the mistaken belief that it will vastly improve their game only to be bitterly disappointed. The top players in the world of golf can afford to hire the best sports psychologists and motivators to help them keep their minds focused on their game and consistently play to the highest level . Now it is possible for the normal club players to achieve the same state of mind as the professionals for less than the price of half a dozen golfballs.

Self hypnosis has finally been recognised as not being a stage show gimmick, the use of self hypnosis can condition the mind to help overcome everyday problems and habits permanently, and with no side effects (i.e. the much joked about clucking like a chicken or barking like a dog, self hypnosis will leave you feeling relaxed and confident). Sport in particular can benefit from this excellent form of therapy. If someone was to say to a golfer that just by listening to a cd as you settle down to sleep at night, their game will improve markedly, they would probably get laughed at, recent research has shown that hypnotherapy can be used safely and highly effectively to improve many different habits and circumstances. I became interested in self hypnosis due to a need to control pain without resorting to a continued course of painkillers, I did not realise at the time that it could be used to change so many aspects of my life for the better, for any of you who have not tried it and are contemplating changing some aspect of your life, I can highly recommend it.
