The biggest swing breakdowns often start before the pitch is even thrown: tension.

In The Tao of Hitting: Finding Your Path at the Plate, coach and educator Chris Petersen applies Taoist principles to the one place most players struggle most, the space between the ears. When tension shows up, hitters squeeze, rush, lunge, and lose their natural swing. Petersen's approach starts earlier, with balance, simplicity, and a quieter mind that allows the body to do what it already knows.

This is not a drill book or a checklist of swing positions. It is a mental performance framework for coaches and serious players who want a repeatable way to slow the game down, reset quickly, and swing with confidence.

Blending coaching experience with Taoist ideas and memorable pop-culture bridges from Forrest Gump to Winnie the Pooh, the book offers a fresh perspective on performance, failure, and freedom at the plate.
