Creative visualization can help you perform like an NBA All-Star
You approach the three-point line. The pressure builds as the other team tries to block, but you effortlessly avoid them. The world narrows until all you see is the hoop. You shoot. The ball floats through the air and falls into the basket … the whole net.
It is every basketball player’s dream come true. Whether it’s an NBA All-Star or one of the guys shooting hoops on the block, all players want to be able to slide past the other team’s defenses, pass accurately and score shots. Now, thanks to the power of creative visualization and relaxation (CVR), that dream can be your new reality.
Methods like sports psychology have helped players in the past, but the prohibitive cost ($ 100 or more per hour) put those aids out of reach for everyone but the wealthy. The field was open for a method that offered a greater boost in performance at a fraction of the cost.
That’s where CVR comes in.
The key to performance in any sport is practice. Mental rehearsal is a method many successful athletes use to instill muscle skill and memory without spending overtime on the court. Creative visualization helps athletes imagine the perfect play and then step onto the court and achieve it. The relaxation inherent in the process means there is no stress or nerves; just calm concentration and motivation.
But can it really be that easy? Can you really visualize it and then realize it?
Supossely Yes. Athletes from the Olympics to the New York Knicks have already experienced positive changes in their games. This is because CVR helps players eliminate distractions and employ a laser-like approach to get them onto the court. These visualization techniques can help basketball players develop the mind of a champion, transform weakness into strength, and even understand rotation, arc, and release movement.
Of course, CVR is just one weapon in the arsenal of a truly successful athlete. Many professionals also use brain entrainment technology, or light and sound, to enhance the effectiveness of CVR sessions. Such light and sound technology usually comes in the form of glasses and headphones that use finely tuned frequencies of light and sound to synchronize the left and right sides of the brain and produce deeply relaxed brain wave activity.
In technical terms, such brain-entrainment technology features deep carrier frequencies. These are the actual sine waves that transport your mind into the deepest meditative states, magnifying the effect of binaural beats and allowing you to achieve better results in much less time.
It may seem like it’s more in the purview of MIT than the New York Knicks. The bottom line, however, is more internal motivation, better training ability, and easy access to the zone … all of which take players from rookie to pro at an incredible rate.
Most sound and light devices also do not require an engineering degree to use; you can connect them to any MP3 player. And 20 minutes in such mental training equals four hours of sleep, which helps keep athletes fresh and alert.
More importantly, when used in conjunction with CVR audio sessions, brain training helps basketball players perform at their optimal levels both on and off the court. The game is enhanced by sessions that help athletes learn from the best, read their opponents, and review their own performance without regret or self-blame.
Every athlete has brilliance on the inside. Now you can use CVR to bring your brilliance into your life and your game.
