You’re a passionate musician.

You’re passionate about having and sharing deeply moving experiences through your music.

You loving making music that awakens the emotions and leaves you and your audience feeling changed, enlivened, and more ✨enlightened✨ by the experience.

The problem is, music awakens the passions by increasing and releasing tension, and it’s all too easy to get carried away by that churning sea ? of emotions.

Most musicians (even professionals with tons of experience) believe that increased muscular tension is necessary to convey passionate emotions to their audience. It can seem totally impossible to play passionately without a big buildup of tension in the body. ?

However, even though it feels impossible, it’s not.

? You do NOT need to increase muscular tension to convey passionate emotional intensity.

In fact, the opposite is paradoxically true:

Increased muscular tension actually BLOCKS ? the free-flow of emotions and limits your passionate expression. Because playing with tighter muscles makes it harder for the body to move and respond with quick-silver flexibility, fresh spontaneity, and ease.

So, when you get carried away by the music and let your body get tense along with the intensity of the music, you’re actually getting in the way of the natural expression of the music and preventing your best performance. ?

Not only that, but the excess tension in your body makes you more prone to injury and common emotional disturbances, such as performance anxiety or depression. ? ? ☔️

?️ What musicians really need is the ability to…

☀️ let the music speak for itself – through you – while you remain “passionately detached” and free in your mind and body.

☀️ be an open, receptive conduit for the tensions inherent in the music to flow through you, unimpeded by muscular tension.

☀️ let go within your whole self – not just relaxing isolated tension you might feel in your arms, shoulders, neck, or back.

? Honestly, you can learn how to do all of this pretty easily – it’s not that difficult.

However, it’s probably not something you’ve ever learned before. And once you’ve learned how, it’s something you’ll need to practice and apply systematically to your music-making.
