Mental Blocks & the YIPS
Talent Isn’t Enough
Talent may get you noticed, but talent alone doesn’t create an elite athlete. At every level of competition, mental interference can get in the way—and the mental skills to overcome it are trainable, yet many athletes have never been taught what to do when their mind gets in the way. All athletes train the body; elite athletes learn to understand the mind.
Meet Craig Buboltz
Clinical Hypnotherapist and Mental Performance Coach
As a former collegiate athlete and certified coach, I witnessed firsthand the thin line between good and great. My journey into hypnosis began when I discovered how elite, world-class athletes leverage this powerful tool to access flow states and achieve peak performance.
That discovery inspired me to become a clinical hypnotherapist, dedicated to helping athletes find their true potential. I founded Top Sport Hypnosis to combine proven mental performance skills with personalized hypnotherapy, helping athletes identify and overcome mental barriers and master their mental game.
Why Hypnotherapy is Used by Elite Athletes
Hypnosis Breaks Mental Blocks
Mental blocks often exist beneath conscious awareness. An athlete may know what they want to do, yet unconscious patterns of doubt, fear, hesitation, or past experiences can interfere with performance. Hypnotherapy helps bridge the gap between the conscious and unconscious mind, allowing athletes to identify and change the deeper patterns that may be holding them back. When the mind is aligned with the performance you want, you can begin to trust your training, quiet the mental noise, and perform with greater freedom and confidence.
Hypnosis Helps You Find Flow
Hypnosis strengthens the mind–body connection, quiets the mind, and sharpens your focus so you can push your body to the upper limits of your potential. Once you experience the shift, you discover that flow isn’t luck — it’s a skill developed by mastering focus and regulating your mental state when you need it most. Learning self-hypnosis is the bridge for athletes to find flow during competition.
