Peak Performance

Visualise yourself at the side of the stage - waiting for your turn to perform.  As you begin to see and sense yourself waiting there in the wings and you hear the applause which is being given to the performer whose act is now ending, this is your cue to begin to relax.  You begin by checking your body for tension and if you note any  tension or anxiety, you let it go.

Next you concentrate on your breathing.  You breathe into your lungs and hold that breath for three, and as you breathe out, think in your mind the following words.

"I am calm, I am relaxed and I am confident".

These are your cue words for post hypnotic response and each time you take those deep breaths and hold for three, you mentally repeat those words in your thoughts, strengthening those calm and confident feelings.

You repeat this procedure twice more.

Now its your turn to go onto the stage and the audience are ready for you - and you are ready for them.

You hold your head high and walk slowly and carefully onto the stage.  The lights are on you and its bright and alive and you're aware of these calm and confident feelings.  You can see some of the audience's faces and notice how interested they appear to you - they're listening and watching and hanging onto your every word.  Some people are concentrating on you so hard that their faces are tight, others are smiling - they're enjoying themselves here, watching and listening to you.  Some people have a glazed look in their eyes, and you realise that they are mesmerised - hypnotised - fascinated by you and your act.  This makes you feel good.  You're doing marvellously and its a tremendous feeling for you to be so confident and so calm.

I'm going to be quiet for a moment or two and I want you to mentally rehearse your actual act (or song or speech or whatever).

See yourself presenting yourself in a professional way.  You're looking and feeling good.

(Pause for two minutes).

Now your act is coming to an end.  The audience begin to applaud you - they're clapping their hands as hard as they can.  They love you and they love your act.  They're shouting for more.  See the look of admiration in their eyes.  You've done a brilliant job.

Now leave the scene, you walk off the stage feeling as though you could jump up in the air (but you don't).  You feel on top of the world.

When you come to do this for real - things will happen to you, just as I say they will happen to you.  And remember your breathing and holding it for three, and those words in your thoughts.

"I am calm, I am relaxed and I am confident".

Now count subject up out of hypnosis or add a few more suggestions, or repeat some of the ones already given.
