Olympians, Blue Angel Pilots, Recreational Sports Athletes, all benefit from Visual Motor Rehearsal. VMR is using your imagination. Visualizing what you want your outcome to be. Do you want to win or do you want to lose? The U.S. Navy Blue Angel pilots use "chair flying" or VMR before every practice flight. They rehearse all mannerism and vocal commands from a conference room while closing their eyes. They were pretending to fly before they are in fact in the air flying. This enhances muscle memory and allows for a more comfortable state of realistic training. VMR can be used for any aspect of our life. If we want a new car and don't think we can afford it. We need to stop and ask ourselves, "How can I afford it?" Close your eyes and visualize that you're driving the car. Test drive it at a dealer! Visualize that you already own the car. You will eventually find a way to purchase what you want with out stressing out over it. Stay positive!!! Have fun!!! |
