In “The Winner’s Bible” Dr Kerry Spackman, a neuroscientist, made the observation that a goal of therapy may be either to help a client loosen up or conversely to tighten up. It reminds me of the buddhist metaphor of tuning a sitar. If the strings are too tight or too loose then the instrument won’t play well. On reflection I have often been able to use a combination of hypnotherapy, relaxation or meditation to help my clients achieve that goal. That is, to “make beautiful new music.”
