"Perhaps every orchestra or symphony needs its own Yoga master to help members relax, perhaps a group session a half hour before the curtain opens."
=================================================

In fact, a relaxing massage service - with meditation style background music - is offered to musicians of the orchestra (at a price) at Orchestra Hall Chicago before just about every performance by a spectacular masseuse. Some take advantage of it, others not.

That's fine. It works for some. It does not work for others. Even others that practice meditation on a regular basis.

The point is that BBlocker's are not performance enhancing for those with debilitating enough personal social anxiety problems. Everyone is different - and by a wide margin. Individuals should not be stigmatised for needing treatment for what is considered by the psychological profession as a legitimate medical disorder. This adversion to medicine (which isn't even psychoactive but controls physical symptoms) amounts to discrimination.

I've worked with many students on this and have come to understand the prejudice and stigma attached to such conditions. Perhaps the ignorance regarding the subject will pass someday soon.

I think you make a terrific suggestion and don't mean to point any of what I've said toward you at all. I hope that you understand that I am using your good ideas as a springboard toward giving some context re: this issue.
