I had tried every method I could find and nothing helped me. I tried positive visualization, creating a routine, and so much more. I am not a sport's psychologist nor do I claim to be. However, this is my story of overcoming the yips. The Yips are crippling and they are based in our fear of how we are perceived. My journey in the yips began in college and didn't become resolved until years later. I had to face my fear and explore it rather than run from it. Rather than convincing myself that everything was okay, I had to face my fear of failure and become okay with the fact that sometimes I was going to fail! It was a mental battle, and it was exhausting showing up to the field every day with this mental burden. We must find our identity in something other than baseball so that we are not placing so much unnecessary pressure on ourselves.
