Time Magazine reported in a cover story on the 1984 Olympics that on the night before the finals in women's gymnastics, famous athlete, Mary Lou Retton, then age 16, lay in bed at the Olympic Village mentally rehearsing her performance ritual.

The result, of course, was a performance of perfection, presented with charm, poise and confidence, culminating in a gold medal. "Your mind does not know the difference between fantasy and reality, so what you picture in your mind, the body can achieve!" Proof of that statement has been provided countless times. Mary Lou pictured a perfect performance in her mind. Her body produced it. Athletes and hypnosis 7.
