Charms to soothe the savage beast
March 12, 2010 in Arts Review, Commentary | by pjtconn | Leave a comment
I know when I am having a bad day or feel trapped by negative thought patterns, putting a beloved CD on is very centreing and liberating. Much like reading, and, of course, my writing, I don’t really feel like myself if I don’t spend time listening to music, especially if I give that time to watching too many sports or online gaming. My favourites are Santana, Rush, U2, Bob Marley, Vivaldi, Handel, and various contemporary Christian artists. What do you like to listen to?
The Canadian Association for Music Therapy, much like myself, resides here in Toronto. Here is a link to their website: http://www.musictherapy.ca/ These professionals are seeing their methods succeed in the treatment of anything from Acquired Brain Injury to Victims of Abuse to many other points of concern.
Tune in to Sound Therapy Radio this Monday Mar 15 at 7 PM Pacific to hear J Peachy delve further into this topic. It is on CJSF 90.1 PM out of Burnaby, British Columbia, or can be accessed live on the internet at http://cjsf.ca
I am very grateful to J for this opportunity to contribute to his blog, and I invite any questions or comments to my e-mail address: pconnors69@yahoo.ca Have a great weekend, everybody!
