While I haven't yet tried it as yet (though am strongly considering it based on your experience) my mother successfully and permanently quit smoking 25-years ago thanks to a single one hour session with a good hypno-therapist.Mark U.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04792726660751354015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-23202971409232238712010-09-24T04:15:21.737-07:002010-09-24T04:15:21.737-07:00Wow, this is very cool.

Sounds like this tape is a real winner, especially since it's so wonderfully focused for the sport (use that last gu, catch that babe up front). Might just have to get it.Girl In Motionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12845071620369547052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-85381097482267236232010-09-24T01:29:48.954-07:002010-09-24T01:29:48.954-07:00That was something!

I'll be interested to see how you go with this. I can just imagine you seeing those numbers on the clock as you approach the finish in Chicago.Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-15273119913613390282010-09-23T17:38:54.568-07:002010-09-23T17:38:54.568-07:00Monicac2, well, it may be as close as I'll com...Monicac2, well, it may be as close as I'll come as well, but thinking that way will only ensure that I won't get there. So, the sky's the limit for us both!<br /><br />Ariana, well it's a $30 investment, so you have to weigh whether or not that's too steep. I felt like it was worth the money to try it out. The narrator states that it takes about a month for most people to see results, but I have to say that I felt lucky to have this little "breakthrough" in my first session. So, I say give it a try. It can't hurt, right?<br /><br />L, the more I disclose this experience to others, the more I find that these types of "scripted" visualization exercises are widely used particularly for high school and college athletes. Having been neither, I had no way of knowing. The marathon is powerful and emotional. I feel lucky to experience that every time I run one and now, even when I just dream about running one;)<br /><br />Thanks for your positive vibes!Jaymeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01680519617786773673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-970842592518131792010-09-23T11:47:28.411-07:002010-09-23T11:47:28.411-07:00J, very in interesting.

As a Division 1 collegiate running coach I've tried various mental training techniques with student-athletes but have never gone as far as pod-casts.<br /><br />I feel this line summed up crossing the finish line of a marathon so perfectly " began to cry with absolute delight and bewilderment." It is in that moment alone that we decidedly vow to take on 26.2 again.<br /><br />I can't wait to watch you cross the line on 10.10.10! May this time shine brightly for you on the clock that day.
