“I am enjoying working with all these tools in performing and life in general”

During the first meditation in last week's lesson when we tested the neutrality or lack thereof in the chakras I had made such a silly noise for negative on my energy meter that every time I heard it or even thought of it for a second I would burst out laughing so loudly. I still smile thinking of it. . It was totally funny to me. Yes, I do I love my amusement and neutrality!

I appreciated hearing more about the blue aura to help with stage fright. I have had the opportunity to try that a number of times over the past three weeks, and it is interesting! After my highest "pressure" gig where I was appearing with very high level performer/guitarists including folks I have read about in magazines and have looked up to for years I was told that I seemed so relaxed and assured in my performance and my talking with the audience. I also have been trying to kick into the idea of collective learning that Jeffrey mentions at the beginning of each session when we put our learning experiences in a group bubble and draw on each others' knowledge. I sometimes try to access guitar knowledge when I am practicing.

Before the previously mentioned performance everyone was warming up and sounding really impressive to me. I was still changing guitar strings and had not yet played that day so I was feeling tense and like I may not be able to keep up with everyone else. When I finally went to warm up I was playing more easily with higher speed than usual and more fluidly and I was able to reach that higher height in performance that you sometimes get when the crowd helps you transcend what you had been able to do in the past. I think I was also picking up on the group ability without even thinking about it, in addition to using the big blue aura. It felt really great! I am enjoying working with all these tools in performing and life in general. Thanks for all the fascinating information and tips!
