I've led seminars on a variety of subjects, including:
-- The wisdom in your anger.
-- Freeing yourself from the inaccurate childhood story about you.
-- Living up to your potential.
-- Shifting your identity into retirement.
-- Life beyond your family legacy.
-- Finding a way out of the bind you’re in.
-- Anxiety as a secret weapon.
When I chaired the Mind/Body Department at the Longy School of Music at Bard College, in Cambridge MA, I led graduate seminars on topics relevant to a life in music. Many of them are applicable to other artistic devotions.
-- Managing the love triangle of you, your lover, and your Muse.
-- Life after school: an artist’s place in the larger world.
-- An artist’s relationship to money.
-- Finding your own artistic “voice”.
-- The unspoken aspects of student-teacher relationships.
-- Knowing you’re OK when you don’t get hired or perform your best.
-- Performance as aesthetic relationships: sounds, timing, shapes, direction, pacing.
-- The colleague dilemma: are you my friend, my competition, or both?
-- Physical self-care: coping with stress and building stamina.
-- Managing performance anxiety.
-- Creating: keeping your inner critic at bay.
-- Notes or music? How sounds become song.
-- Adjusting to the demands of aging.
-- Art as energy -- your energy quality.
-- Keeping your mind and body on good terms.
I am available to facilitate discussions on any of these subjects.
