Summary: <p> <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/file_attach/images/Vis-podcast-june-11.jpg" style="margin: 5px 12px; width: 200px; float: right; height: 200px;">In this month’s podcast I want to discuss my personal take on visualisation training. Visualisation training is where we mentally rehearse a given task or scenario in order to help us prepare for that task or scenario.</p> <p> I’ve made use of visualisation over the years and I’ve found it to be very useful. It can be a great supplement to physical training and can help develop skill, improve performance, boost confidence and help give you a positive self-image. It can help you rehearse so you are well prepared for any task you are undertaking. It also has uses in our everyday lives outside of the martial arts too.</p> <p> Visualisation can be done anywhere and with no equipment. You can train as a passenger in a car, while sitting at your desk, on a plane, before you go to sleep at night, before you get out of bed in the morning, when injured, when tired, when ill, and so on.</p> <p> In this podcast I explain what visualisation is, how I personally practise it, how to ensure it is effective and some of the more common problems you may come across.</p> <p> We also have a little bit of news relating to the online bunkai videos we have been adding to the website and Youtube over the last few weeks.</p> <p> I hope the information in this short podcast is useful and I’ll be back with another podcast very soon.</p> <p> All the best,</p> <p> Iain</p>
