The power of visualisation - and how to do it

Over the course of the last 4 and a half years speaking to people for this podcast – the topic of visualisation has come up a lot.
Former Wales rugby union captain Sam Warburton spoke about using it to help him recover more quickly from an injury.
6 time major golf winner Nick Faldo would visualise the outcomes he wanted twice a day in his pomp, and “saw” himself as the winner of major championships including The Open – before it happened.
So, this is a massive topic among elite performers – and one of my guests who put it in some truly compelling terms was Lewis Pugh, the record breaking swimmer and UN Patrons of the oceans. Lewis was the first person to complete a long-distance swim in every ocean of the world, and was also the first person to swim across the North Pole- to highlight the melting of the Arctic sea ice. Lewis does all his swims, even those in freezing temperatures- wearing only a pair of speedos - and his work has been dubbed ‘speedo diplomacy.
Lewis Pugh harnesses the power of visualisation to such a great effect – scientific papers have been written about it. He can dramatically change the state of his body through the power of his mind.
