Over the next few weeks, I’ll get back into looking at DMT and Sport which is a fascinating side, but little understood and studied. I’ve still got a few entries on false flags I’m going to put up as they would be such a shame to waste them for they will help to understand the…
People think that time is a constant, a fixed thing, but it is not, for time can be expanded or compressed when we do things. People also think that time is the tick, tick, tick of the clock, but it is not, it is also linked to space and distance, for if you are expanding…
When talking about time, space and distance it can get really confusing because you cannot separate the 3 for they are all linked together. Because you end up with a: Distance Time Continuum = Space – Distance – Gap – Time And It’s all about the space between two points that create the distance Or…
As scientists continue to look deeper and deeper into things, what you see that they keep finding, isn’t something there, but nothing. Because when you get down to the level of the atoms and lower, what you find is that they are mainly filled with space. And when you go in the opposite direction from…
In truly coming to understand the playing zone there are 4 questions to ask. Most only ask 3. And the 3 questions that people mainly ask are: What is the playing zone? What is the experience of being in the zone? How do you get into the playing zone? And that is essentially the 3…
If anyone does not know much about the playing zone I would recommend reading The Mindful Athlete by George Mumford, which was published this year, 2016. http://www.bookdepository.com/The-Mindful-Athlete-George-Mumford/9781941529256?ref=grid-view It gives good examples of being in the zone and the steps and practices to take in getting there on a consistent basis. His concept of getting into…
When writing or talking about sport on can not exclude the playing zone because there are times in sport when one’s play enters a different dimension and one begins to enter a state of flow. These are the times where the ball appears bigger, the gaps appear larger, time appears to slow down and one…
I have just recently finished the book In The Zone by Michael Murphy and Rhea White and added it to my growing collection on the subject of the playing zone. Books on the Zone In the Zone – Michael Murphy and Rhea White http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?kn=in+the+zone+michael+murphy&sts=t Playing in the Zone – Andrew Cooper http://www.bookdepository.com/Playing-in-the-Zone-Andrew-Cooper/9781570621512?ref=grid-view The Rise of…
When one begins looking at sport and coaching, what you find is that there are 6 main areas to really look at, yet in our coaching training we tend to only look at the skills, techniques and tactics and pretty much leave it at that. So what are these 6 areas? Needy People Information Field…
If you can see the playing zone as part of an information field that we are a part of and therefore can affect, then how you approach sport begins to change because one then begins to look at both the body and the mind to prepare in training for when it comes time for competing….
When you begin looking at the big picture from the perspective of the playing zone, one soon realises that it is the pivot point for understanding sport and consciousness. Because when you begin to experience the playing zone, you want to get there more and more often, because if you have an inquisitive mind you…
We’ve come a long way in our understanding since I began writing this blog 4 ½ years ago, but in reality it’s a process I’ve been working through since 1988 when I first began coaching, and even back further when I first started playing and watching sport. So let’s have a bit of a summary…
The more ones reads about the function of the brain and how it works and operates and reads about the experiences of people in the playing zone and other higher consciousness experiences, what becomes abundantly clear is that the playing zone is a function of the right hemisphere of the brain. Because: Being in the…
To get into the playing zone on a regular basis, there is four states that one must begin working to and become part of their routine. The states that one must work to are as follows: Disciplined Simplicity Relaxed Focused For without attaining these states, having access to the playing zone on a regular basis…
If you can begin to see electromagnetic fields having something to do with the playing zone and these electromagnetic fields having some form of information on them associated with the playing zone, then you can begin to see how a group of people can access this information if they’re all tuned into the same frequency….
I’ve completed another two posters on consciousness. This time it is to do with how consciousness communicates with us and then another poster on the two-way communication process that goes on. And then when you add all 6 posters together plus the two on the playing zone, a clearer picture begins to emerge. Posters on…
When we start looking at it, and begin to see us as an interface to something bigger, all of a sudden who we really are is different to who we have been told what we are. Because: We are a physical manifestation of consciousness in a biological form that exist in a 3 dimensional reality…
When you begin looking at us and you start reading material that is out there, it very quickly becomes apparent that we are not who we appear to be. For everything works on frequency, vibration and matter, especially matter that is suspended in a liquid. And when you begin to look at it, we are…
So all this talk about consciousness, how does it help in putting together a team? The first thing it shows is that there is more to putting together teams than just training, and secondly and more importantly, you can get more out of people than even they realise. For when you understand about consciousness, you…
An interesting observation has occurred when one begins delving into the playing zone and it’s the difference between understanding the playing zone and understanding the concept of how the playing zone works. Most people are getting the concept of being in the zone or in the flow, but to step further is proving to be…
