Buy this new program that we have and that's going to teach you how to vibrate correctly.
And it's a bit of BS.
The right way to do it, and there is a right way, according to several studies now, is called mental contrasting.
Mental contrasting is when we contrast the outcome we want with the pain that is in our way.
Okay?
Not to focus on the obstacle per se, but to focus on what we will do physically.
And psychologically when we face that obstacle.

Because where does visioning come from?
It comes from athletes.
That athletes do in fact use these visioning exercises, but how do they do it?
They don't envision, oh, I'm gonna win the trophy, I'm gonna win the medal.
That's a waste of time.
What they vision is what will they do when an obstacle gets in their way.
