200527 PiFiMe

Piano Fitness Meditation is PiFiMe

Since my Mind fuels my Head Engine, meditation* is the natural way to connect to the creative energy essential for developing the Performer’s Mindset.  The 7 Spinal Energy Centers - SEC- seek 3x3x3 balances:

3 Engines:  Hips Heart Head
3 Planes
3 ROM**

Intended Infinite Awareness observes the balance  of the Stable, Intuitive Truth in the Engines of the Hips and Head with the Powerful Creative Heart Engine in every breath.
Earth connections through the feet on the floor, the hips on the bench and the players on the key field are  intended from lightest to heaviest from all 3 perspective of the key:  Surface, POS***, Bed





*watching myself breath
**Range of Motion
***Point of Sound

200515 New 2020s Vision


Piano Fitness is Visionary

Watching the physical changes evolve  with scapular/numeral gliding initiated at the heart engine is expanding awareness daily.  L2M connection is improving.

Chopin Etudes with evolving piano fitness includes the miyagi technic for every note.  Day to day, step by step progress can not be hurried.  Impatience promotes resistance.  The War of Art battle continues.

200514. 100th dematerialized

Piano Fitness is evolving.

Acknowledging that mom’s 100th will not be a memorial recital, the next recital is evolving.
Change is welcomed for new vision.

200303

piano fitness is the right tight.

stable core  activates 20% power minimum for 3 way balanced hip engine on the earth through the bench and the feet on the earth through the floor.
heart engine balances when the fingertips, on the earth through the keys, connect pob to surface, pos and keyed as intended by the head engine.

the mind maps the three engines and their connections to the earth and delivers intended mass through pos/pob.  stable creativity in the hip engine powers up the heart engine to reproduce the intended sound in the head engine.

the fluidity of the balanced body is determined by muscular contraction in the correct places for support of the 3 engines.

200229 Leaping into Piano Fitness

Piano Fitness is improving parasympathetic awareness.

since 1/23/2020 the map to the 2nd fingers staying flexed by observing a different hand posture in relation to the leader to the rest of the fingers has been steadily improving.

today, with the inclusion of the chinese medicine channels for each finger

leader- lungs
2nd - large intestine - creativity
middle- paracardium - heart protector
4th - fluidity- lymphatic system- fluid balance
helper- heart/small intestine

the mind maps the body connections consciously with breath and 4 counts

playing the piano is the perfect balance of the human machine connecting to the most complex human powered machine.
the mind maps at the point of sound (count 4) with the point of balance (parasympathetic awareness) at fingertip connections.

starting with breath awareness at this pos/pob connection:

count 1 releases whole arm into keyed
count 2 awareness of pob on keyed
count 3 release to key surface of next hand position
count 4 awareness of pos/pob in this hand position.

beginning with helpers on lowest and highest notes-port te bra position # 1 on the piano playing field.
repeat 4 count pattern with both arms inward until position #22 -the middle of the piano (E/F) and then outward to position #1.

find the position that is most comfortable for each armii- it may not be the same for both sides
with eyes closed, 3rd eye observations of breath and 4 count connections for all 22 position inward and outward,


the fundamental intention-make NO SOUND AT ALL !

pure awareness of parasympathetic nervous system includes all points where the body is connected to the earth-
feet/hips/fingertips

I am still learning to listen

190531 #2 piano fitness' heart zone

stable creativity connects to the powerful  heart when the activated core lifts the power sec up to the back body, elevating the ribs, lengthening the waist  and  balancing the front/back heart zone.  the hip zone in the lower body maintains 3 balances while providing support for 3-way balance for the other 2 zones in the upper body. 

the heart sec gives and receives through the 3-way balanced thoracic spine.  the heart sec connects to the hands through the sterno-clavicular joints at the top-middle of the chest.  the thoracic spine receives the weight of the connected hands/heart delivered  to the heart through the clavicle into the sternum and via all the ribs. the thoracic spine also receives the weight of the 3-way balanced head through the cervical spine in the neck.  it is essential for all delivered weight to be received by the front, not back, of the spine.

as the thoracic spine is 3-way balanced, the heart zone moves freely front/back and side/side.  from the heart zone, the mind's intended weight is delivered down through the key's point of sound and creates the mind's intended sound.  

activate awareness of the 3rd balance - the heart centered between hips and head for bottom to top balance.  a  powerfully balanced heart both gives and receives, in the present moment, when creating music.  we can intend to literally play from the heart.
