In
the modern world of sport where athletes
need to heal quickly and return to
their sport as soon as possible, the
mind is being used more and more for rejuvenation
and healing - not just for improving
sports performance, where
it has been used for a long time.
Nowadays
it is also used to help restore the
body back to perfect health, and help
the body overcome injuries, pain and
illnesses more quickly, to reduce recovery
times.
As
a mental trainer, for the past few
decades I have worked with a vast
number of athletes, teams and coaches
from all over the world, teaching
mental toughness and peak performance
- and many times it has been to
help accelerate
healing times to recover more
quickly for competition performances.
It
is well established from scientific
research that all your body's
functions are completely controlled
and co-ordinated by your subconscious
mind, which controls the functioning
of your enormously powerful immune
system.
This
is the system designed to heal and
restore your body to perfect health. Your
immune system contains almost every
healing chemical you will find in a
drug store - including the
most powerful painkiller used in hospitals
- morphine.
And when
the mind is given the correct instructions,
it will release the correct healing
chemical - in the correct dose -
into the bloodstream to speed up
recovery and create accelerated healing.
Mental
Techniques Which Accelerate Healing
The
great news is that your body is governed
by your immune system - which in turn,
is controlled by your subconscious
mind.
Your
subconscious reacts very powerfully
to mental techniques - such as relaxation,
meditation, visualization, hypnosis
and affirmations, which have
shown to boost the body's immune system
and accelerate the natural healing
process.
In
fact, even relaxation on its own is
quite therapeutic to the body and its
healing processes, because it is well
known that stress suppresses the
immune system.
This
is why relaxing activities
such as taking a bath, listening to
peaceful music etc can help to reduce
the stress within the body and
allow the immune system to work at
stronger levels.
Visualization,
in particular, is used in many hospitals
around the world, in areas
such as the cancer wards, as this
technique can be easily tailored
to specifically target the particular
areas of the body where you need
accelerated healing.
As
these technique need to be done correctly
to get results, and as I work with
so many different types of sports athletes,
I created a mental audio recording
designed to take care of this process.
This
boosts the body's natural functioning
of the immune system for accelerated
healing - using a combination of relaxation,
positive hypnotic suggestion and visualization.
These
combine to activate the natural
healing response from your subconscious
mind and immune system.
The
recording guides you into a deeply
relaxed state, then sends powerful
healing suggestions directly to your
subconscious, then guides you through
a healing visualization, and then brings
you out - all within a total of
20 minutes.
This
means that even the busiest of people
can fit the recording into their busy
schedule, as 20 minutes is all it
will take out of your day. This
recording deepens and becomes
more effective each time you use it.
