6 methods to avoid tension during guitar performance

Spread the love

It is not difficult to play guitar. It is not easy to play the songs that want to sing in front of many people. It is inevitable that you will feel nervous when you perform on stage, so how to overcome it? The following methods may help you.

01 Facing the challenge directly
Pretending to feel angry to face the challenge in front of you is a way to overcome tension.
Instead of getting a different experience, we can adopt more firm confidence and provocative attitude. We can use strong willpower to dominate our limbs. The deep self -dialogue in the heart can help strengthen this control ability. The idea of replacing the negative and self -criticism of the out of control, with a positive, aggressive idea, “Yes! Do you want to eat me? Do you think you can control me? My will is firm as a mountain”

02 Slow down speed
Speed faster is one of the side effects of nervousness.
When we are excited, we feel that time is slow, and we always feel slower than usual. In fact, the speed may be quite fast at that time. If you deliberately slow down, we can return to normal and control our condition. It can improve accuracy, think more about thinking, and make music (such as strength) that should be handled during weekdays.
When we feel that the speed of playing is slower, it is likely not to do this. When the recording of heavy listening, it may still be faster than usual.

03 loud bouncing
Handling, sweaty hands, shallow breathing, will lose the ability to master fineness.
In this case, if you want to control the music finely, it is easy to cause disaster errors. When our hands cannot be performed normally, playing loudly helps them at the right point at the right point. The acuity and color of this music may not be as expected, but when we spend this stage, after a short period of time, everything may be ready to get better.

04 Selective concentration
The main reason for nervousness is that our brain is threatened to see the performance as a threat of life and enter a “battle or escape” situation.
In fact, today’s world will not cause physical damage to the performers, but our brain still causes timid ideas, which stimulates a chemical substance and emotions, causing awkward limbs and stiffness. One of the ways to retrieve the main control is to selectively focus, focus on certain specific elements of music, and focus most of the attention in that aspect.
The preparation and beats of pronunciation are two places that allow us to focus on.

Prepare action:
When focusing on preparing actions, we will pay attention to the position where the right hand is mounted on the string. If it is placed steadily, we will feel that everything is in control. We can focus on the movement of the right hand and listen to each notes, which also helps focuses on music (not the idea of the audience). The more you think about the music beforehand, the more the notes we pop up.

Rhythm:
Another thing worthy of our trust is rhythm. If you focus on making the beat more accurate, the sound of the sound will be better and more stable.
To do this, in the usual exercises, you can adjust the beats and play, and follow the play to turn the beat into the basic skills and exercises before the performance.

05 Smile
When the situation at the scene became worse and we entered the crisis, we might as well deceive ourselves.
When smiling, we are telling that everything is very good in the nervous system, and the nervous system will lower the heartbeat and relax the tension of the mind to make the head look back. Does a smile look funny when playing? Maybe! But better than being defeated or broken, people like to see smiley faces instead of poker face after all. In addition, the smile will spread.

06 Put the tongue and eyes soft
Like a smile to the limb, when we softened our tongue and eyes, we also released the information to our minds and stopped trembling.
Relax the back of the tongue (tongue root) to stretch it to the teeth behind, which can help us exhale gently. This allows us to quietly quietly interweave and relax the muscles of the neck and chest, so that we can relax the excessive tension of our arms and hands. When we relax our eyes, we can quickly reply to calmness and focus, which is more suitable for performance. Cognitive scenes around us help relax your eyes, slow down the operation of the left brain linearity and rational logic analysis, while activate the creativity and intuition of the right brain.

Finally practice again
Incorporating the above tips into daily exercises, we are preparing for the performance.
Smile or selectively focus on tension, and feels loud when we feel attenuation. When we feel that God is not as provocative when it is elastic (such as the scales). The more preparation, the more the opportunity to complete a successful performance in order to worship our audience.
