What is Sports Psychology?

Psychology is the science that deals with the mental processes and behavior.  The emotion and behavioral characteristics of an individual or team.

The sports mind call it the "Mental Edge" or "It's all Mental" that's what "Getting in the Zone" is referred to.

The Conscious Mind functions are to: look, listen and to learn. It does all the analyzing, criticizing, reasoning and judging. It has the responsibility to accept or reject any thought or idea.

The Subconscious Mind, conversely, is irrational and makes no decisions. It only acts on what it is programmed to do by instinct, genetics, habit, or repetitive thought. It's main functions are to run and preserve the body, store memories, regulate emotions and energy, maintain perceptions and filters, and all automatic functions that you never have to think about.

Knowing the differences and understanding the process of how the mind works can help you begin to deal with your issues and installing new belief systems that put you on track to achieve your Athletic goals. 

Many athletes are never exposed to this possibility their entire life and go about their daily routine always wondering why they just can't change the things they want in their life. They just keep repeating the same patterns over and over.

Mental Performance Skills Training can only enhance your life by  adjusting those routines and having them become successful life changing experiences.
