Really it's about consciousness--what is making me nervous?
I love the new brand of poker players who are trying to go more into mindfulness, meditation, and consciousness as methods for improving poker play.
Charlie Carrel and Justin Bonomo are like this.
I think a whole new breed of human is arising and this human will have super-human poker playing abilities.
Me?
I get very nervous live. I have breathing exercises. Sometimes I do neck rolls. I also try to think about what is making me nervous?
My judgmental overly religious and moral upbringing?
Not knowing how to act in a mostly male group? (Grew up with only women at home).
Other psychological issues?
I seriously am thinking and am going to write a lot more about this soon...Thanks for starting the thread.
