A true expert and trendsetter in the field of hypnosis Dr. Spiegel has appeared on the Andrew Huberman podcast, and he joins #OntheMark to dive into the topic of hypnotherapy and hypnosis for health, well-being, and for increased and improved focus and performance on the golf course.
Dr. Spiegel answers the following questions:
What is Hypnosis and how does it work? What does Hypnosis do the the Brain? What is is like to be hypnotized? He explains the different parts of the human brain and how they work, and perhaps don't work, together, and he elaborates on the three things that happen to the brain while in a state of hypnosis. By way of explanation he also talks about brain activity in stages of stress and relaxation, in panic and in calm.
Dr. Spiegel then talks about his work with competitive athletes and illustrates how hypnosis has allowed them to perform at the best in high pressure situations. He and Mark Immelman also discuss the mental state Tiger Woods gets into during competition. To that Dr. Spiegel illustrates how athletes and people can perform self-hypnosis, through the Reveri App for peak mental and physical performance.
