Not sure if this will help but I had a friend that realised he was shuffling across his guard and as such wasn't always standing in the right place. He got over it by making sure early in his innings he made a conscious effort to re set himself in relation to his guard

I'm the same... although in my case it was because I was playing poor shots and therefore missing straight balls.
