A talk by John Diamond, M.D.
By working with an amateur recorder player and encouraging her to approach her music-making as “aspirational play,” Dr. Diamond is able to help her overcome her deep suffering. There is no need to deal directly with the patient’s psychological problems: these can be easily transcended when music is used in this manner.

We tend to worry too much and that is because, as Dr. Diamond shows, at an unconscious level, most of us feel we need to. The underlying problem relates to the thyroid (triple-heater) acupuncture meridian and is specifically connected with the emotion of loneliness: having problems, we hold onto the past and somehow this makes us feel less lonely.

Most professionals have lost the joy in their playing. Exploring this, Dr. Diamond offers insight into one of his basic tasks: helping people recover the joy they knew as children, including the joy of music, to then find the JOY that lies beyond.

One of the biggest problems affecting the Life Energy of music is that the fun has been taken out of it.

The way to find our truest selves is to practice detachment, and a key to this is the embracing of the concept of discernment, rather than judgment.

Dr. Jim Cairns (1914-2003)
The pioneering interviews which Dr. Diamond undertook with Australian politician Jim Cairns in 1968 have had lasting significance, and mark a highlight of Diamond’s career in Australia before his move to the US in 1972.

At the time of the interviews he was an MP for Lalor (a suburb of Melbourne) and had been appointed shadow minister for trade and industry by party leader Gough Whitlam.
