In service of settling down all the noise that might be floating around your mind this week.

This week I talk about the idea of the cue and the reward and how you can build momentum in doing your Most Creative Work (MCW).   

Referencing the book, The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg.

Sitting in a park is an underrated habit. Better if you can go by yourself, and top marks if you go to one that is outside of your neighbourhood. Just look on the map and get out there.   Your time in the park is the perfect antidote to the stress of living in the city.

This episode is part of my mix series that is designed as a thank you to my Patrons. It compiles music that was made for this podcast in the weeks prior. 

On this episode we hear: 

This week we kick off with a track I call Gonawinda and then we discuss the idea of community and how I have started a Discord to help put this vision to the test.  https://discord.gg/3RKdb2xF (good for 7 days after the episode airs)

This week I offer some strategies for making your commitment to using tech a bit less daunting. We start things off with a heady jam in E Major.   Thanks for listening to Elliott's Podcast as always. My website is elliottfienberg.com for more articles and info about my work. 

It was great to connect with my old friend Matt James at Joseph Workman Park, as part of the music in parks series on Elliott's Podcast.  

Inside you can expect to learn about some different strategies that a songwriter like Matt might employ to work through ideas.

Lots to go over, being in my old bedroom at night time inspired me to discuss some sleepy time rituals around going to bed early.   If you have serious sleep issues you can learn more about my friend Talia Shapero's work as mentioned in this episode

The idea that naturally came about this week is to continue writing a piece of music for another lake that I visited on this month’s hiking trip. We stayed on three lakes, so this week I wrote a piece called Harness and paired it with the video from that one.
