Rehearsing
Record Yourself
An excellent way to listen to yourself is to record yourself and play it back.
There is a flip side of this. When you play and you are recording, imagine
the listener - which will be you at some point in the future - and
when you play, put out a sweet energy or even some love, and imagine
that this good stuff will flow right to that listener.
Of course, if you
do it right, you'll get a treat when you listen to the playback.
That sweetness and emotion won't fix the detailed problems you have
in your playing, but they can give the entire song a feeling of warmth
and make it easier to listen to yourself playing.
