Stop Thinking, Start Playing Better Golf – The Non-Duality Secret with Katrijn Van Oudheusden | Mind Caddie #404

Stop Thinking, Start Playing Better Golf – The Non-Duality Secret with Katrijn Van Oudheusden | Mind Caddie #404

Author: Karl Morris April 10, 2026 Duration: 48:07

What if the biggest thing holding your golf back… is your mind?

In this fascinating and thought-provoking episode of Mind Caddie, we're joined by author of Seeing No Self, Katrijn Van Oudheusden — and this one goes way beyond your usual golf psychology conversation.

Katrijn isn't a golf coach (or even a golfer), but her insights into non-duality, identity, and the illusion of control could completely change how you approach your game.

Together, we explore a radical idea:
👉 What if trying to control your thoughts is the very thing ruining your golf?

This episode challenges everything you think you know about focus, control, and performance — and offers a surprisingly freeing alternative.

🧠 In this episode, we explore:

  • Why your mind might actually be getting in the way of good golf
  • The truth about not being able to control your thoughts
  • What happens when you stop trying to "manage" your game
  • The power of "let's see what happens" thinking
  • The idea that there is no 'doer' behind your actions
  • How to stop overthinking and start playing with freedom
  • Why taking yourself less seriously might be your biggest advantage

This is a different kind of episode — deeper, more philosophical, and potentially game-changing if you're open to it.

🎧 If you've ever felt stuck in your own head on the golf course… this one's for you.

Karl Morris has spent years working as a performance coach with some of the best golfers in Europe, and in Mind Caddie-Improve Your Mental Golf Game, he shares that expertise directly with you. This isn't just about swing thoughts or technical fixes; it's a deep, practical exploration of the psychology that dictates performance on the course. The conversation moves beyond simple positive thinking to address the real challenges players face: handling frustration after a bad hole, maintaining focus over eighteen holes, and building a resilient confidence that doesn't vanish under tournament pressure. Each episode feels like a personal session, breaking down the mental frameworks used by tour professionals into actionable strategies for any committed player. You'll hear discussions on managing expectations, creating effective pre-shot routines, and understanding how your brain can be your greatest asset or your biggest obstacle. The aim is to provide the tools that help you access your best game more often, turning those range sessions into reliable performance when it truly counts. Tune into this podcast for honest, nuanced talks that get to the heart of why we play the way we do, offering a distinct advantage that has nothing to do with new equipment and everything to do with the space between your ears.
