Building a Practice Habit

Hi everyone!

For most of us, it's back-to-school and back to very full schedules.

Most of the families I'm working with are feeling busy, and I know that fitting in our music practice right now is taking lots of commitment and planning.  

Remember: linking practice time to something that's *already* a regular part of your day can really help create a solid practice habit. 

In case you're struggling, here are a few ideas. Pick one each day as needed:

  • In the evening, make a practice plan for the next day.  Set an alarm in your phone.
  • Honor this practice time that you planned, even if you only work for a few minutes.  Build the habit!
  • Set a goal for the week and give yourself an incentive
  • Watch a video of an inspiring artist to end your practice time
  • Remember, every bit counts!  Even a few minutes of practice is better than skipping a day.
Cheering you on over here during this busy time!
