𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙 𝘾𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙨 𝙖𝙩 𝙒𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙒𝙮𝙘𝙠𝙤𝙢𝙗𝙚 — 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙃𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙮 𝙒𝙖𝙨 𝙈𝙖𝙙𝙚!

The 2025 World English Sporting Championship at E.J. Churchill Shooting Ground in Buckinghamshire was one for the record books — with over 1,800 shooters from around the world competing in the largest CPSA Sporting event ever held in the UK!

🏆 Highlights from the week:
• 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹 (USA) captured back-to-back World English titles, shooting an incredible 185 to take the win.
• 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗝𝗿. claimed Runner-Up, with 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗲 rounding out the podium.
• 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗙𝗲𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹𝗹 brought home the Veterans title, and 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗹 earned Junior World Champion honors.
• 𝗔𝗺𝘆 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻 took the Ladies Championship, edging out 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗲 𝗘𝗱𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀 and 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗽𝗲.
• Team USA dominated the Open, Veterans, and Juniors events — while Team England took home Ladies and Super Vets gold. 🇺🇸🇬🇧

From the rolling British countryside to the demanding courses set by Steve Lovatt, this year’s World English proved why it’s the pinnacle of international clay shooting competition.

I was sitting outside this morning—no phone, no coffee, no noise—just stillness.

And I caught myself smiling.

Not because anything spectacular was happening, but because I felt completely present.

That’s what hypnosis and mental training are really about. They’re not strange or “woo.” They’re practical, safe, and backed by science. It’s about learning how to guide your mind the same way you’d train your body.

When you practice hypnosis, you’re not being controlled—you’re taking control. You’re teaching your subconscious to support you instead of sabotage you. You’re reprogramming stress, worry, and overthinking into calm, clarity, and confidence.

After 30+ years working with PGA pros, Olympians, and everyday people, I’ve seen this same peaceful ease show up again and again.

When you stop fighting your thoughts and start working with your mind, life gets lighter. Your body relaxes. Your focus sharpens. Joy becomes natural.

This is what mental training gives you—a return to yourself.

🤍 InJoy Life

If you’d love to experience this kind of calm and clarity, my hypnosis audios are the perfect place to start. Link in bio.
