Hypnosis Application in National Sport

Abstract

Sports hypnosis as a subset of sports psychology is based on the findings of physiologists and psychiatrists. Its use helps athletes to get rid of fears, create the right moral attitude before competitions, recover more quickly from traumas and overcome psychological barriers. Hypnosis addresses first of all the athlete's brain and focuses on mental training, while the traditional. approach to the training process considers the athlete's work only as physical. Such a radical difference in approach prevents the expansion of the use of hypnosis in sport.
