<p>Worrying is never much fun, but it’s especially not fun in the leadup to a performance or audition. And even more so when we get stuck in a “worry loop” and can’t seem to get ourselves out of it.</p><p>It’s a little like the time my family visited Paris when I was a kid, and my dad got stuck in the roundabout around the Arc de Triomphe. I don’t know how long we drove around and around, but I do know that I fell asleep at some point, and when I woke up, we were still looping around. 🤣🥲</p><p>So what causes these worry loops? And is there a way to stay in a better headspace in the leadup to performances?</p><p><b>Additional Links</b></p><p><a href='https://bulletproofmusician.com/david-juncos-elvire-de-paiva-e-pona-on-act-and-a-new-approach-to-overcoming-performance-anxiety/'>David Juncos & Elvire de Paiva e Pona: On ACT and a New Approach to Overcoming Performance Anxiety</a></p><p><a href='https://bulletproofmusician.com/a-simple-strategy-for-worrying-less-and-practicing-more-...
