MENTAL PREPARATION
AN INSEPARABLE COMPONENT OF THE REST OF A SPORTS PREPARATION
Mental training and performance are based on three pillars and a catalyst : Technical, tactical and physical qualities are the three basic pillars, and the mental is the catalyst.
Without the mind the best of athletes are nothing – if in his/hers head he/she is not the best.
Mental preparation has nothing to do with problem solving.
It is more about a very precise way of thinking and acting under pressure: How to achieve and maintain your ideal state of performance (EIP), individually for each player or collectively, all together as one team.
A PREPARATION, FOR WHAT PURPOSE ?
To achieve a positive internal state under pressure and to stabilize this high level of performance, mental training will allow you to put the results into perspective:
Restimulation after a defeat or a hard blow, and/or refocusing (getting you down from your little cloud after a feat).
Mental preparation can help you to be more aware of your talents, strength and weakness in order to get to know yourself better.
AN APPROACH IN WHAT FORM AND HOW ?
I offer specific support in Mental Preparation for athletes, managers, entrepreneurs, employees and students. I work in your workplace, in your club or company, at your house or in a neutral place.
My interventions focus in SOPHROLOGY, which uses techniques of mental imagery, relaxation, activation, formulation of internal discourse and thoughts, goal setting… Sophrology can meet a very targeted demand such as the acquisition of relaxation techniques or on the contrary be part of a more general approach to optimize your potential.
In the best case I would like to offer you a GLOBAL ACCOMPANIMENT WORK, because it seems to me more interesting to work both the mind and the body and aims and versa. Physical work that I give through my activity of SPORTS COACHING and PHYSICAL PREPARATOR For any information, do not hesitate to contact me, I will make sure to answer you as soon as possible.
