Description
We have all heard some form of the saying, "sports are 80% mental and 20% physical". Let's purposefully engage the 80% and make measurable performance gains. In this course you will create and apply mental imagery and self-talk techniques for the purpose of gaining greater performance in the skill of your choosing. Mental imagery and self-talk can give you quick results and when practiced over a longer period of time mental imagery and self-talk can also help with focus, clarity, your ability to overcome mistakes and programming of specific actions when under high amounts of pressure or stress. In other words what you see in your mind and tell yourself matters when it comes to performing. Throughout this course you will use the workbook I designed to help you shape your mental movie and script to attain performance gains.

Expanding the levels of human performance is my passion. Working with others to blast through perceived or real barriers to achieve one's potential is my mission. I hold a Master of Adult Education degree and a Doctor of Psychology in sports and performance psychology. I have worked in the learning and human performance industry for over 15 years. I have a wide range of leadership and performance experience working with larger corporations such as Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, sports teams, and adjunct teaching for Purdue University. Enhancing performance is a constant goal for business organizations and sports organizations. My experience, education, and field of study give me a unique insight into offering solutions for the organization or individual that often include immediate and sustained results.
