Healthy musicians

Play (Less) Hurt

by Janet Horvath

Responding to popular request, I'm posting a link to Janet Horvath's website for health-conscious musicians.  Click here.

We've got the book in the Whittaker Library ... look here.

The Healthy Artist

• Vitamins?
• Gym subscription?
• Meditation?

I asked readers of this blog if there were particular subjects they'd like me to focus on this month.

'The healthy artist', came the reply. 

By which, they mean, healthy performing artist.

So here it is - my call for helpful, healthy websites - with the added twist that they must be relevant to performing artists.  I'm not going to start blogging about FitDay (though it's great) or Weightwatchers!

Here's a start: our books on health, and conversely, on injuries.  Why suffer for your art?!
