You could try turning your bow down, but with newer bows you hold so little at full draw I doubt it will matter. Try shooting fewer arrows at a time. Like shoot three arrows instead of five or six, then go pull them out of the target. Make your shooting session shorter. When you start to get tired quit for a while and rest.
Blind bale practice! Shoot for while really close to a target with your eyes closed. Concentrate on your form and release with no concern where the arrow goes.
Then move back a little and do the same thing with your eyes open but don't aim at any one particular spot. This is called blank bale shooting.
There is also an aiming excercise you can do. shoot a target with multiple spots if you can. Pick a spot on the target. Draw on the spot and line your sights up on it. Then just aim for a few seconds. DO NOT release an arrow!! Let the bow down, pick another spot and draw on it. Keep doing this without releasing an arrow. It will feel really weird to begin with, but once your mind figures out you are not going to actually shoot anything you should settle down and be able to hold the pin on the target more steady for a longer time. This will also build your muscles back up quicker since letting your bow down is actually a bit harder than pulling it back.
This is pretty simular to dry firing which many rifle target shooters do. Don't dry fire your bow though
. That is what blind and blank bale shooting are for. They also make a device you can put in your bow so you can dry fire it. It is some sort of hydraulic tube I think. I bet it isn't very cheap though.
