Golf Guided Imagery CD

We work with the most critical inches in any game...
The inches between your ears!

The best example of the successful use of guided imagery or self-hypnosis is Tiger Woods. Here is an excerpt from Michael V. Uschan's book about the golfing phenomenon.

"Earl Woods headed the group of advisors and trainers who guided his son's quest for golfing greatness....The final member of the team was Jay Brunza, a retired navy captain and clinical psychologist. Brunza, who had previously helped athletes at the U.S. Naval Academy learn to concentrate better to improve their performance, began working with Tiger. Brunza taught him mental tricks to increase his concentration and hypnotized Tiger to instill some of his lessons. He even taught the young golfer how to hypnotize himself to get the same results.

Brunza is credited with helping Tiger develop his almost Zen like concentration, which allows him to focus on every shot "In golf," Tiger says, "you have to concentrate like this!" Tiger snaps his fingers to show how quickly golfers must regain their focus after a bad shot or distraction so they can hit their next shot cleanly. "My father and I call it zoning. If you mishit a shot, hit it out of bounds, put it in the water, you have to get your focus back. You've got to start thinking ahead, don't look behind."" 

Michael V. Uschan, Tiger Woods, San Diego, California, Lucent Books 1999, Page 39.

In golf, positive concentration is the key to success and there will be times when you must regain your focus at the snap of a finger. For instance if you miss a shot, you can not afford the luxury of a negative thought. You must regain focus and be instantly ready for the next shot. This type of focus is sometimes referred to as "being in the zone". Relaxation is the key to concentration and keeping you "in the zone". Relaxation is a skill that gets better with practice. Just as with any sport, the more you practice, the better you are. Therefore the more you listen to this CD, the easier it will be for you to relax and improve your concentration. A strong mental attitude is built in the same way physical strength is gained... by repetition. Manipulating weights builds physical strength. Manipulating thoughts builds mental strength. With practice, the exercises on this CD will enable you to learn the art of relaxation and concentration and therefore helping to keep you in the zone.

The best way to use this CD is when you are in a quiet, comfortable place like your den or living room. Make time so that you will not be interrupted and can enjoy the experience from start to finish. DO NOT listen to this CD while Driving a car or operating equipment!! These tapes are designed to make you deeply relaxed and you may injure yourself or others if they are not used carefully.

Here is what you will find on the CD:

Track #1 of this CD contains verbal instructions about the use of the CD and a description of the contents.

Track #2 can be used by itself. It is about 25 minutes long and is designed specifically for improving your ability to focus and be in the zone while playing golf.

Track #3 is a shorter version of tract #3. This track is about 12 minutes long and has been designed to be used just before you are to be engaged in your sport.  You might want to listen to this while you are in your parked car ... just before you play.

Track #4 of this CD is a generalized relaxation induction. This exercise can be used for any reason. For instance it would be helpful to you if you have just experienced a stressful day and wanted to unwind and relax. Track # 4 is about 15 minutes long and can also be used along with track # 3.  

Relaxation is a skill that gets better with practice. Just as with any sport, the more you practice, the better you are. Therefore the more you listen to this CD, the easier it will be for you to relax and improve your concentration.
