Ever wonder what makes a certain song stick with you?
Or why you crave certain music at different times in your life?
Today we talk about just that With Andy Freedman, LPC and Music Therapist from Philly!
In today’s episode we explore what music therapy is like and who can benefit from it. We talk about how much music acts as a mindfulness agent and social connector that helps all humans find healing in a meaningful way.
My favorite part of the episode is where we go through a music analysis of 3 very different songs and pull out reflection points for me. As usual, I could’ve kept talking forever, but I’m excited for you to listen to what we captured here.
Top reasons to listen to the entire episode:
Gain insights into the multifaceted world of music therapy, understanding its applications and discovering who stands to benefit the most from it.
Delve into the fascinating process of lyric analysis as we dissect three unique songs together, unraveling the profound stories they tell, and sharing how they affect each of us.
Witness how lyrics can serve as a powerful tool to unearth hidden emotions and feelings, often dormant within us, guiding us through different stages of self-discovery and healing.
Discover the significance behind me choosing 3 songs specifically from my high school era.
