Neuro-Performance FAQ
With over 15 years of dedicated experience working alongside elite athletes, our approach at Neuro-Performance is rooted in a unique synthesis of cutting-edge neuroscience and advanced performance psychology. We understand that true peak performance extends beyond physical training, delving into the intricate workings of the mind and nervous system. Our mission is to unlock unparalleled potential by optimising cognitive functions, emotional regulation, and mental resilience, empowering individuals to achieve sustained excellence in their chosen fields.
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

Frequently Asked Questions
1
What is Neuro-Performance?
Neuro-Performance is a specialised field that integrates principles from neuroscience and performance psychology to optimise human potential. It focuses on understanding how the brain and nervous system influence performance, allowing for targeted interventions to enhance cognitive function, emotional control, and overall mental resilience.
2
How is this different from traditional sports psychology?
While traditional sports psychology often focuses on mental skills like visualisation and goal setting, neuro-performance delves deeper into the physiological and neurological underpinnings of performance. We utilise tools and techniques derived from neuroscience to directly train the brain, addressing issues like neural efficiency, stress response, and cognitive processing speed, often complementing traditional psychological approaches.
3
What are the benefits of Neuro-Performance training?
Benefits include improved focus and concentration, enhanced decision-making under pressure, greater emotional regulation, reduced performance anxiety, faster reaction times, increased mental stamina, and accelerated recovery from intense periods of competition or work. Clients typically report a more consistent ability to perform at their best.
4
How long does training take to show results?
The timeline for results varies depending on individual goals, consistency of training, and the specific interventions used. However, many clients begin to notice improvements in focus and emotional regulation within a few weeks, with more substantial and sustained changes developing over several months. We emphasise a long-term approach to peak performance.
