Help Athletes Play Their Best with the Overcome Pre-Game Nerves Hypnosis Script

When players experience intense pre-game nerves, their performance gets hampered before the match even starts. From a lack of sleep the night before to inadequate eating to full-blown panic attacks, pre-game nerves are unpleasant as well as unproductive.

The Overcome Pre-Game Nerves Hypnosis Script from The Script Collection was put together to help players at any level calm their performance anxiety and play at their best.

A brief pre-talk opens the script by extolling the benefits of conquering pre-game nerves. The client is assured that learning how to focus their mind and extra energy before games can make a big difference in their on-field performance.

The script explains how top athletes learn to form a "healthy detachment" from their games that allows them to care deeply about playing well while tuning out pressure and distractions ahead of each match.

The goals of the session are defined as retraining the client's "instinctive responses" to competition so that they can approach games with focus and detachment and set themselves up for success.

The induction begins with embedded commands that direct the client to relax and settle down. They are guided to picture a time and place when they felt fully relaxed and at ease, such as a vacation or during a holiday.

A countdown ushers the client into their memory and allows them to experience its sensations again. As they are guided to recall its sights, sounds, and smells, embedded commands instruct the client to "completely let go" and relax more deeply.

The client is reminded of the skills and mastery they've developed through years of training. An embedded command anchors the notion that their "body just knows what to do" deep within the client's unconscious mind.

The client is asked to create an inner oasis. They are guided to imagine gazing into a pool of water. As they look, their reflection takes the form of a future version of themselves who is preparing to play a game in one hour. They are guided to notice how calm and focused their future self appears. They can sense a "controlled manner" and total focus in their future self.
