About Miguel Cocco

Education

Miguel Cocco holds a degree in Psychology and a postgraduate qualification in Hypnosis, equipping him with an in-depth understanding of human behavior and the mechanisms of mental transformation. His early academic focus on the mind’s power to influence personal change laid the groundwork for his future contributions in hypnosis, influence, and mental conditioning.

With a master’s degree in psychology, Miguel’s thesis focused on the personality of compulsive gamblers, and his work in addiction treatment centers provided him with hands-on experience in applying hypnosis for powerful, life-altering results.

Professional Experience

Miguel’s professional journey began with treating addictions, using hypnosis to help individuals overcome dependencies on substances like drugs and alcohol, as well as gambling. Through years of dedicated work in treatment centers, he discovered a fundamental insight: everyone undergoing hypnosis is, in essence, in a state of self-hypnosis.

He observed that individuals have an innate power to hypnotize themselves, which led him to a guiding belief that the best hypnotist in the world is, ultimately, oneself. This revelation inspired Miguel’s first book, Change Your Life with Self-Hypnosis, and his mission to teach self-hypnosis through workshops, empowering others to harness the full power of their own minds.

In addition to his work in psychology and hypnosis for personal transformation, Miguel has an extensive background in influence and persuasion. Early in his career, he collaborated with entrepreneurs and business leaders to enhance their communication skills, helping them use influence and persuasion effectively within their professional environments.

Over the years, he has shared these strategies with thousands of students and clients, offering tools for personal and professional growth.

In recent years, Miguel has focused his expertise in hypnosis on the field of sports, especially in triathlon, golf, motor sports, and equestrian sports. As a certified Iron Sports Hypnosis Coach and a trainer in sports hypnosis, he provides foundational, advanced, and elite mastery courses, along with mentorships and tailored coaching.

His approach integrates advanced hypnosis techniques that enhance athletes’ focus, endurance, and resilience, allowing them to achieve peak performance in their chosen sports.

Lifestyle and Passion for Triathlon

Miguel is an enthusiastic triathlete, having completed one full Ironman and two half-Ironmans. His passion for triathlon extends beyond the sport itself—it represents a lifestyle that embodies discipline, resilience, and mental toughness.

Early mornings spent watching the sunrise over the ocean, swimming in open waters, and running through mountain trails are not just training routines; they are moments that fuel his dedication to pushing limits and embracing challenges. Miguel believes that the qualities developed in endurance sports—persistence, focus, and self-discipline—are essential skills that can elevate both athletic performance and personal growth.

Triathlon and the outdoors inspire Miguel’s work with clients, as he brings the same intensity and commitment to his coaching. He aims to help athletes cultivate mental resilience and unlock their potential, using both his personal experiences and his expertise in sports hypnosis to empower others.

A Love for Science and Research

An avid researcher and lover of science, Miguel is constantly exploring the latest developments in psychology, hypnosis, and sports performance.

His dedication to learning has driven him to create numerous courses in hypnosis, including Self-Hypnosis Facilitator Certification, Practitioner in Conversational Hypnosis Trance, The Hero’s Journey, Virtual Gastric Band, and Lose Weight with Hypnosis. With a commitment to making advanced hypnosis accessible, Miguel has trained over a thousand students and clients worldwide, giving them the skills to master their minds and achieve profound personal transformation.

Miguel’s journey as a coach, trainer, and author reflects his lifelong mission: to teach people how to tap into the power of their own minds, unlocking potential in both sports and life. His current project, a new book titled [Title to be added], promises to deliver further insights into the mental strategies that enable peak performance, resilience, and lasting success.
