Dear Herb, David, Mari and Adam (and many others),
A breathing/relaxation/purification technique called "Misogi" is described
on our web page (http://www.ozemail.com.au/~andyshak/misogi.htm ).
This has been modified for shakuhachi players who may find this useful to
improve their sound and to release unwanted stress.
Also, as problems are often associated with wrists and elbows, flexibility
and strengthening exercises used in Aikido may also be found to be
effective.
