As one looks more and more into the workings of this reality, one begins to see and experience the changing perception of time and one realises that the last thing that time is, is linear, it is far from it. Time can speed up, it can slow down, it can open up and expand out…
Recently I came across the works of Robert Lanza and in it he discusses the concept of Biocentrism, which is basically that our reality springs out of consciousness and life and not the other way round. Robert Lanza: The Theory Of Biocentrism Pt 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zI_F4nOKDSM But it was while I was watching the Robert Lanza…
The more and more one looks at our world and reality, what becomes more and more obvious, that at the basis of everything and its underlying structure, is that it’s all to do with sound.

The more and more that one begins looking into our reality and the workings of it, what becomes more obvious is that everything is information in one form or another, therefore, the reality that we live in is an information field. The other thing that starts to become obvious is that within this information field…
When one starts to look at our reality, how it works and how we interact with it, there appears to be two rooms that are integral to our working here. These two rooms are the imaginal realm which we use to create and the playing zone which we use to enhance performance. Of these two…
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…
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….
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…
When you begin to see consciousness as an information field and creative force and how we interact with it, the works of others begins to make a lot more sense. Up to now, for whatever reasons, people in the past have had to wrap up what they wrote and spoke about in some sort of…
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…
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…
I don’t know about anyone else, but as one was growing up you start coming across things like the Pyramids of Giza and other ancient structures such as Machu Picchu and one begins to wonder what they’re all about and I had a feeling that the ancients knew more than us. I couldn’t pin it…
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…
