Check out these suggestions for self-care for musicians feeling overwhelmed by the year of no work and lockdowns.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been a hard year. Lockdown has meant spending a lot of time alone with your thoughts, and some musicians have adapted less well than others. A <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/mental-health-crisis-as-9-in-10-professional-musicians-in-the-uk-report-struggling-in-the-pandemic\/\">recent survey<\/a> by Help Musicians UK found that 90% of respondents said their mental health has suffered throughout the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been especially tough for <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/artist-support-pandemic\/\">working musicians <\/a>who were beforehand constantly on the move, performing, perhaps feeling they were just starting to see momentum. Going from a vibrant lifestyle gigging and <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/the-power-of-music-collaboration\/\">collaborating<\/a> with other <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/musicians-union-calls-for-extension-to-uk-government-support-schemes-for-musicians\/\">musicians<\/a> to a complete standstill was a shock that many musicians are still processing a year later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the old feelings, pressure to please, self-doubt and insecurities, are still there but the thing that often drives artists through \u2013 performing \u2013 is no longer possible. Whereas other professions have been able to adjust, Covid restrictions mean that live events haven\u2019t gone ahead, and there\u2019s no real substitute for being physically in front of a crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various strategies and tips that can help musicians cope with <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/is-it-fair-to-ban-jess-glynne-from-a-festival-for-life-for-mental-health-issues\/\">mental health<\/a> challenges. The important thing to always remember is to use your voice and speak up if you\u2019re feeling helpless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>You&#8217;re not alone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s some comfort in the fact that, though everyone deals with different situations in different ways, the whole music industry has been rocked by the past year. That\u2019s thousands of <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-can-musicians-and-producers-tell-when-their-track-is-finished\/\">musicians<\/a> who are experiencing the same thing you are; a ready made support group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Talk to someone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, the whole music industry is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/articles\/news\/9367924\/musicians-mental-health-struggles\/\">going through the same thing,<\/a> but your individual worries still deserve to be listened to. Whether you&#8217;re suffering from a mental health problem like depression or anxiety, or you&#8217;d just like to hear a friendly voice, in the UK Help Musicians have set up <a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicmindsmatter.org.uk\/\">Music Minds Matter<\/a>, with a dedicated helpline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/can-i-upload-my-music-to-spotify-yes-and-its-free\/\">Spotify<\/a> have put together a <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/spotifys-new-directory-is-here-to-help-artists-with-covid-issues-and-much-more\/\">directory to help artists in the US<\/a>, including health and wellbeing resources, which <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/sweet-relief-are-helping-musicians-in-need-in-the-u-s\/\">Sweet Relief<\/a> also offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Get some fresh air<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if it\u2019s a brisk stroll around the block, getting out of the house will do wonders, even if it\u2019s the last thing you feel like doing. Try to make sure your diet is good, keep an eye on your alcohol intake, and make sure you\u2019re getting enough sleep. It\u2019s wearying to hear it repeated, but mental and physical health are linked and one affects the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Make some plans<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What can you control? Your next steps once this is all over. Speak to other musicians, venues, record labels, to keep that fire going. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping in touch will make sure those connections you formed before the pandemic are still there afterwards, and give you something positive to focus on. They\u2019ll probably be grateful for the optimism, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Don\u2019t forget about your home team<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In general as a musician it&#8217;s good to maintain a supportive set of friends and family who aren\u2019t connected to the music business. Someone who isn\u2019t invested in your career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019ll keep you grounded, giving you an outside perspective. Sometimes it\u2019s good to be reminded that there\u2019s a world happening outside of your industry, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>It&#8217;s not forever<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With vaccines being distributed around the world, things are <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/live-nation-entertainment-gears-up-for-return-of-concerts-despite-drop-in-revenue-of-92-in-q4-2020\/\">far more hopeful<\/a> than they were not too long ago. You\u2019re still a musician, and that talent hasn\u2019t disappeared because you\u2019ve had to pick up another <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/interview-with-nubiyan-twist-teaching-music-in-lockdown\/\">source of income,<\/a> or because people haven\u2019t seen you play in the flesh \u2013 it won\u2019t be too long until you\u2019re out playing again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Wellness techniques for musicians<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your mental health is under strain, it\u2019s worth giving thought to some self-care. <a href=\"https:\/\/synchedin.com\/blog\/yoga-meditation-playlist-now-available\/\">Mindfulness and yoga<\/a> bring the focus inward to a place you can control. Breathing techniques and meditation can help focus the mind and empty it of clutter to help make more focused decisions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It might sound a bit too \u201cflower power\u201d to you, but there\u2019s nothing to lose by giving it a go. It might just change your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Set goals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Give yourself something to aim for, so you <a href=\"https:\/\/synchedin.com\/blog\/5-tips-to-stay-motivated-and-creative-during-lockdown\/\">stay motivated <\/a>and emerge triumphantly back out into the world at the top of whatever musical game you\u2019re in. A new style of playing to master, a new EP to record, getting to grips with <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/5-mistakes-new-music-producers-make\/\">new software.<\/a> If that sounds intimidating, just make sure you keep practising to stay supple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Lost the mojo?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, you might not have spent the forced time in lockdowns embarking on a creative musical odyssey and emerging with a double LP filled with musical masterpieces. So what? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just making it through the year is an achievement in itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Worried about life restarting?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/lifeandstyle\/2021\/mar\/15\/how-to-address-social-anxiety\">Not everyone is raring to go.<\/a> After a long time standing still, as everything begins to open up again everyone will be unsure and hesitant about navigating society again. There\u2019ll be some musicians who\u2019ll be worried about being out in the world. Go at your own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The year of lockdowns has put a spotlight on musicians who feel lost, having been defined by a job that requires lots of hard work but that other people think of as being all play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a unique time to consider the things that usually there\u2019s no time to appreciate, and you might be reevaluating your lifestyle before the pandemic, which is natural. Use the resources available to you online and seek professional help if you can tell your mental health is suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicmindsmatter.org.uk\/\">Music Minds Matter Helpline:&nbsp;<strong>0808 802 8008<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do musicians cope with mental health challenges, especially during the pandemic?
