Guided Visualizations are among our most popular items.
We add at least one to almost every course we offer.
The following Guided Visualizations are included in this bundle:
Introduction to Guided Visualizations
As traders, we often find ourselves trading reactively and on impulse. We don't have a clear vision of the mindset we want to create for ourselves. Guided visualizations are a powerful way to start the creation of the new reality we want to build. Hypnosis and guided visualizations sometimes have the connotation of control and overpowering our wills. However, this is about you creating the power to gain rapport with your own subconscious in a way that honors your values.
Desired Outcome:
This section is here to give YOU the power to go into a deeply creative trance where you can integrate your goals, values and results with all parts of your self. This self-guided visualization will give you the experience of creating a safe receptive state of mind where you can begin to open the door to new behaviors that feel better in the moment, honor your values and get you to your goals.
The Space Between Thoughts
As traders, we want to react quickly to market setups. We have our survival responses that can act ten times faster than our neocortex, our thinking brain. We often trade from impulse under the delusion that our impulses are intuition. There is a lack of awareness that there is a path to being in the "flow" and it comes from mindfulness.
Desired Outcome:
To be able to be fully present with ourselves, our physical sensations, our emotions and our thoughts as they come and go. At the same time, to be fully present to the market AS IT IS. To be able to tap into the powerful pattern recognition abilities of our brains without the distortions of our bias and mind traps.
The Master Trader's Home
Traders become so focused on their trading frustrations, struggles, mistakes and painful history, that they are not able to easily envision a wonderful state of mastery and success. Our survival brains will veto any movement towards success if it can't fully experience the new state as safe. One problem is that the trader needs to experience success...before the reality of success.
Desired Outcome:
We know that our brains react and develop to visualizations in much the same way as it reacts to reality. Thus, creating a visualization of success, and then allowing our survival brain to fully integrate this state and feel safe with the success allows us to solve our trading issues FROM the state of success, rather than the state of struggle.
The Trading Temple
Many of us have been taught to work hard. We believe that we deserve success only with effort and time where we can point to a value we have delivered to others. This conflicts with our success as a trader since we can make money with little effort, we can have a profitable trade in a few minutes or hours and it isn't clear about the value we are delivering to others. In short, it can feel like we are cheating someone else.
Desired Outcome:
The "Trading Temple" is designed to give you a sense of honor and to be a part of the history of trading that has brought wealth and security to so many people. It will give you a visceral sense of the value you deliver to the market place with every profitable trade.
Sports Trading Hero
Our brains are designed to deliver large amounts of pain when we experience loss. This pain can lead to a downward spiral of self-doubt and discouragement. As traders, a loss or series of losses trigger a downshift in our brains that feels real with no escape.
Desired Outcome:
In sports, our heroes fail over and over again...and just keep going with a positive attitude. They miss game-losing baskets, they throw interceptions, they strike out in the 9th inning...over and over again. Yet our sports heroes maintain a winning mindset. This is the desired outcome of this guided visualization...to give you the experience of intense loss and then, intentionally, to step into your sport heroes mindset.
