Sports Hypnosis and Psychology

Probably the most talked about sporting occasion in the UK where hypnosis was used, was in 1996. Boxer Steve Collins enlisted the help of a hypnotist who suggested, whilst in trance, that he would throw two punches to Chris Eubanks one. In the fight Eubank threw 300 punches, Collins threw over 600. Eubank expressed his concern that Collins had an unfair advantage fighting in a "super human trance-like state". In that fight, and in their rematch, Eubank was the points loser.

Psychology, Hypnosis and visualisation have been used in Sport for years; in the 1956 Melbourne Olympics, the Russian olympic team took no less than 11 hypnotists to develop mental clarity and help the athletes with visualisation, in the 1978/79 tour of Australia, England cricket captain Mike Brearley consulted a hypnotherapist to improve his game, out of 20 Australian swimmers named in the 1980 Olympic team 12 had been using sports hypnosis tapes for two months previously. Paul McKenna used NLP and Hypnosis with Frank Bruno and Nigel Benn before important fights.
