HypnoSport: How You Can Improve Your Sporting Performances - Les Cunningham & Wayne Ralph

Australian hypnotherapist Les Cunningham explores how hypnosis and self-hypnosis can help athletes improve concentration, confidence, stamina and performance under pressure. Designed for both professional competitors and weekend sportspeople, the book offers practical techniques for managing tension, overcoming pre-match nerves and developing a focused mental approach to competition. Cunningham draws on his experience working with sporting teams and individual athletes, with examples involving rugby league and the Australian skydiving team. The book presents hypnosis as a form of mental training, combining relaxation, suggestion and visualisation to help athletes perform at their best.
