248 Embracing Fear And The Dreaded Yips
Manage episode 430805920 series 2939456
The “yips” is a word that strikes fear into many golfers, cricketers, darts players and many other performers. With the yips, comes huge emotional and physiological responses. Lack of enjoyment, and often thoughts about and decisions to quit your chosen sport or pastime. It doesn’t have to be that way however as Trevor Jones a PGA Professional Golf Coach and Mental Performance Coach and I discuss in this episode. We go on to talk about leaning into your fears, embracing discomfort, Acceptance Commitment Therapy or Training (ACT) and mindfulness to help golfers and performers.
Key Learning Points:
- The yips is a significant problem which can escape into other areas of your sport and life.
- The practice of "dropping anchor" remaining still for extended periods can help you remain present.
- Consider what values would make enduring discomfort worthwhile as motivation to regularly practice exercises of this type.
- Explore ways of incorporating mindfulness techniques into other areas of your life to build mental flexibility.
- The still lake exercise is a helpful technique to find flow.
