Let someone hit you in the mask...
with thrown baseballs a few times. I have seen Jim Evans do that and I have done it and it helps me get used to getting hit. I also let a few hit me in chest early in pre-season during cagework to get used to being hit and the fact that it does not hurt with proper equipment. Voila', no more flinching.
