    The learning a new language example hits home for me. The instrument example too. Fear, tension, anxiety and catastrophizing is like a language or story in my mind . The more I learn the new language and story of courage, safety and peace of mind the better I feel. Practice everyday, be patient and take it one day at a time. I wish everyone will find that peace of mind and peace in their hearts which creates peace in the body. State of mind and state of being creates physical conditions. Thanks Dan🙏❤

    I'm a professional singer-songwriter-guitarist. I went through a 3-year depression About 15 years ago where I did not play the guitar at all. I was as good as James Taylor and Dan Fogelgerg on the guitar after close to 40 years of playing, and I lost most of it. Oh, you could tell that I used to be good by what I attempted to play, but it was a mess. Once I got through the depression I did the hard work of learning the guitar again. And now I'm even better than I was; but yes, it takes consistent practice. I keep my guitar on the wall, which is not as good as keeping it humidified in the case, but this way even if I'm waiting for my wife for 3 minutes before going out somewhere (or something like that) I can pick it up and play even for 2 or 3 minutes. Having it out, I play it way more often & consistently. Since I saw Dr Sarno in his office about 25 years ago (after reading this book Healing Back Pain) I have been successfully dealing with mind-body symptoms, and finding you was great because you are "old school". Much of what I was attempting to do for it lately didn't work for me as well as Dr Sarno's original book and realizing how much the "new" way of doing things was with a lot of focus and time each day doing visualizations and stuff like that. And I heard you once say on a video that you can't focus on this all day long or it's not going to get better. I agree. I've tried it both ways. Thank you for doing what you do and for being as generous with your time as you have been!

    Or learning a language. I'm learning Welsh, and if I do some every day I get breakthroughs in understanding how the language works. And as a hypervigilant could-be agoraphobic, I know if I make myself go out and walk a little every day, I begin to lose the fear of doing it. Consistency is definitely the key!

    I have a degree in music education and teach 15 or 20 students per week at my house. I tell them “10 minutes a day is better than one hour the day before your lesson” multiple times during the lesson. I feel like a broken record. Unfortunately, most of them don’t listen. 😉 Probably kind of like the people you try to coach on your channel!😂 As I’ve learned new instruments I know it’s absolutely true.

    Anxiety hangover day 2 . Somehow I got out, I knew I had to go outside. Consistency so necessary. Panic attack when I got stuck at a red light, I actually contemplated edging my way over the crossroads ! Told myself I'd not be any safer over the other side of the road. Crazy eh. An hour at a time but not beating myself up. I'm just fatigued. My body know what to do.

    You are correct Dan! I'm a saxophone player and it definitely requires consistency. Building that muscle memory through consistency is vital. On a side note playing the saxophone is an integral part of my PDP recovery.

    Same as learning to be a pilot. Many students do a 1 hour lesson once a week. By the time the next week comes around they’ve forgotten 75% of the previous week’s lesson. Better to be persistent and train often. 2 or 3 one hour lessons a week yields major results.
    I’m taking the same approach with TMS. Putting in the work many times a day. It’s not a quick process but I do see the results. I’m better today than I was a month ago. A month from now I’ll be far better than I am today.

    I used to to tai chi in a group many times a week, I loved it, we did swords and stuff as well. It started to get too focused on competitions, I didn’t want to participate so I stopped all classes and everything… For me it was about feeling good not “looking” good … i will find a way to start again 👍

    So true ! Agree 💯... 👏👏
    I used to be a vocalist - my voice was my instrument. Being on stage singing was just the "end result" - the chery on the cake... To get there took lots of regular practice, consistency, commitment and belief.... It wasn't just about singing but a whole way of being and embodying everything that went along with that..
    For me the mental mindset was just as important and focused as all the behind the scenes practice / vocal coaching / fitness regime (for stamina and breathing) and health practices etc we did ...
    I did it before - so now I can do it again with all I'm experiencing on my journey at this stage of my life...
    Thank you for the reminder Dan.... ❤

    I play guitar and flute, and yes, practicing consistently is key. The only thing I would add is that consistency is most important when you are learning the skill initially. Once you know how to do that skill well, it's kind of like riding a bicycle. It comes back pretty easily if you don't do it for awhile. Case in point, I was asked to play and sing at a friend's wedding at the beginning of May. I hadn't picked up my guitar for a few years, but as soon as I got it out, tuned it up, and practiced the songs a few times, I was back in the saddle again.

    I totally relate to this, Dan. I play button concertina for dancers, and if I know what we'll be practicing, I can practice at home. Frequently, they throw in dances on practice nights that they haven't done for a while, and even though I know the music, I have to do a quick revision before playing for the dance.

    Im a musician and teach music and an artist though I don't teach that, to me, music listening or making it is a way to transcend the mind and its busy work. It has taken my lifetime to understand my own motivations and then share them. I try to give that information to others and help them understand that it is in the making of it, not for a goal but in an of itself is what matters, the magic is in that, then it all comes together, not as a parlour trick to impress others, or to gain the approval of others, but to connect to our soul or higher self that is beyond our busy conditioned mind. We can present things for others from our own state of mind and then what they take away is their own journey that only they are on, slow and steady persistence, not to win as such but to grow in our wisdom. You help many to this understanding.

    I’m a drummer too but I also tinker with guitar. I’ll hear a song and decide to learn it. Even a complex song. I can play it great. Then I don’t play it again for a few months and try again and it’s a disaster 😂
    So your analogy is spot on for me. Same with TMS. Has to be a lifestyle of acceptance mindset.

  • @erinm9445
    @erinm9445 4 місяці тому +1

    This is such a great metaphor! It goes further too though--consistency is a balance when you're learning something new. Like, yes, a little every day is best. But sometimes you need a day off, and if you're trying to practice all day every day, you'll get exhausted and/or burn out. For me as with so many, mindset is the most important thing. But maintaining a new mindset consistently can be hard work at times. Occaisionally I feel like I need a little vacation from the work. Just a day or a couple of days, before I come back strong. As long as those breaks are far outweighed by the consistency the rest of the time, it feels really important not to force it at those times. Don't know if that's just me though, I've always been someone who does best when I go really hard at things, but take lots of breaks and rests too.

    Learning to play in instrument is much harder than maintaining the skill. I guess that I probably practiced about an hour a day every day to learn to play piano. I didn’t play for three years because I didn’t have a piano, I finally got a piano, I sat down, and I was still able to play. But it took literally decades of practicing an hour per day to develop it.
