Today on the Mind Caddie we are joined by a great guest in the shape of Trevor Jones.

Trevor is a top Mental Performance coach who has done extensive research on the YIPS and more importantly has been finding ways to really make a difference to people who suffer from this debilitating issue.

With a couple of esteemed colleagues he has put together a potentially revolutionary program

We had a great discussion about Trevor’s own background, his own playing and what led him to have such an interest into the specific area of yips in golf and indeed in other sports

How an individual lesson that didn’t work out well got Trevor thinking about a different approach to the yips

What is causing more people to get the yips
What is the mind actually trying to achieve with the yips?
Is it technique or is it mental?
The importance of the correct CONCEPTS
Having a FLEXIBLE framework
How more and more information can only cause more damage
How RESISTING your experience is often the root of the issues
The power of ACCEPTANCE and CURIOSITY
Establishing ‘psychological safety’
Playing from a ‘safe place’
Stop trying to FEEL better and get better at FEELING
What the ‘fear’ is really trying to do for us
Being willing to ‘observe’ the yips
The myth of the ‘perfect state’
How the individual is SACRED. Once size doesn’t fit all one size fits NONE

You will gain so much from this very enlightening conversation
