There are many important points in this week, but I only mention here what points are personally important to me at this moment in time.
Takeaway #1: Use Passive technique to play bowls with Simple Melodies and in a Musical Flow because:
• Simple themes help the brain relax and feel safe.
• Musicality comes from patterns and repetition.
• Slow, long sustains sounds will help clients get into the lower brainwaves (delta/theta) for calming and get healing in that state.
Takeaway #2: The set list!
Write a detailed set list and practice the set list daily!
Call me paranoid but I put everything that I might forget on the set list 😅 Actually I created 3:
- Packing items before heading to the venue
- My introduction speech
- The REAL set list for the actual playing
I do it this way to calm my chatty brain 😅
