"Hello Peter,
Our team really benefited from your presentation on Meridian stretching.
A number of our student-athletes came forward with various issues and
they all found them improved after only a few minutes of work. We will
incorporate these techniques into our training routines and I am sure
our team will greatly benefit. Thank you for the informative hands-on
presentation and continued success."

 “My daughter is a senior in high school and is a three-sport athlete. At the beginning of her basketball season, she was having a lot of trouble not only shooting 3-point baskets but regular 2-point field goals as well. As the season progressed, she became progressively nervous and anxious before and during games. Eventually this eroded her confidence level, and it became apparent that her poise on the court was also diminishing.

After explaining her problem to Mr. Guare the day before an impending game, he led her through a tapping and mental imaging routine. He promised that if she followed this routine faithfully, she would see a sharp increase in her shooting percentage. He cautioned her that the results might not happen overnight, but gradually she would gain back confidence and her shots would begin to fall.

The routine consisted of him saying various sentences followed by her repeating them. In combination with this verbal part of the routine, she would simultaneously tap various pressure points. These points were located on her arm, body and face. She was able to relax and picture herself shooting the ball and making shots. In the first game following this procedure, she knocked down 14 points. This became a season high for her.

It became immediately apparent that the routine that he led her through had some dramatic effects. She seemed to be more relaxed as the season went on and true to form her shooting percentage increased. As a coach of almost 25 years and a teacher of 27, this is one of the most effective techniques I have ever observed. I have preached positive mental imaging to the athletes I have personally coached, and have seen some positive results. But never in my experience have I seen a system that combines mental imaging, positive talk and the physical pressure points to yield such dramatic results."
