"As a professional musician for over 25 years, I wholeheartedly feel this new book will be even more helpful in taming that nasty little Gremlin that musicians, actors, and all performers carry around. Playing music in front of people for a living or even for free can conjure up a whole new family of gremlins. Stage fright, concentration, and self esteem play huge roles in the lives of musicians. Dealing with these issues can be overwhelming and enlightening as well. I think it's because Rick's books are so easy to understand and put into practice that I have had wonderful results using his methods to tame that little buddy of mine." - --John Mahon, Percussionist and Vocalist, The Elton John Band

"Since at least the time of the Buddha, the 'Mind' has been recognized as the necessary ground of enlightenment, but also of all confusion and distress. Rick has devised an original and effective metaphor as an aid in the exploration of this elusive yet always-present domain. And, in addition, he helps us have fun in the process. Gremlin-taming is a most worthy ambition, and Rick Carson is a most worthy advocate and ally." - --Jimmie Dale Gilmore, singer, songwriter, and three-time Grammy Award nominee
