Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewPerformance Anxiety Strategies provides a quality introduction to the multitude of methods and therapies available to counteract MPA. . . However, this book (with its clearing house of techniques and guided activities to help fine tune your treatment options) goes a long way in helping discern which path is best for you. Wherever you fit on the spectrum between traditional medicine and holistic approach, fully emotional response and fully rational logic, there's something for you in this book. But the one thing this book won't do is to provide a quick fix to your stage fright issues. That task is up to you. RECOMMENDED. * The Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians *
