The new buzz word going around the subject of sports performance studies recently is Yips. This often crippling syndrome is affecting amateurs to seasoned pros. More and more athletes are catching a case of the yips.
What pray tell are the Yips, you ask?
I believe Yips are a negative physical reaction resulting from a repressed emotional trauma; in other words, an abreaction. How are the Yips different from anticipatory anxiety, or phobias and fears? An abreaction is a visibly obvious occurrence. Athletes can observe the affliction while it occurs as an involuntary muscular response, and in that moment they cannot deny that there is a problem.
Hypnosis has proven a useful tool in helping my sports clients who struggle with the Yips.
In his seminal book, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, Deepak Chopra defines success as “the continued expansion of happiness and the progressive realization of worthy goals.” I suggest that this definition implies the attainment of “general peace of mind.”
Considering this concept, or definition, a reasonable question one may ask is “how is this done or achieved?” Another reasonable question could be “what processes can we employ or use, to experience general peace of mind”?
The following is a list of processes and attitudes that may assist us in living a life with greater peace of mind. When we become more consciously aware of these concepts, and practice them, we will live a happier life.
