Then imagine in great sensory detail what your evidence would be for having achieved it completely. What images, sounds, and physical sensations would be the signs of a perfect outcome? Then imagine stepping into your own skin and feeling from the inside what it's like to do it perfectly. When you are practicing, you run a series of pictures through your mind as you play music, and it is changing those pictures that change the way you play. This book is a physical practice to enhances practice time, optimizes performance, and helps prevent physical injury in music.
