Your whole goal here is to be in this studio, clean and sober for two hours. Can you do that? Everything else is on top of that. But can you be here? Yeah, I think I can. Alright, cool. Then what's going on? Let's do this and we coach them and get them to relax and drop their shoulders and teach them how to breathe.
Can music really heal the wounds of addiction? Terry Brent certainly thinks so. In this episode, he shares his journey from being a musician to becoming a therapist, and how he's using music to change lives at SoundPath Recovery in South Florida. Terry's program isn't your typical therapy session. It involves songwriting, recording, and performing, offering a unique way for individuals to express their emotions and find strength in their recovery journey.
Imagine taking the chaos of your racing thoughts and turning them into a song – that's what Terry's clients do. They learn breathing techniques to calm their minds, participate in writing groups to channel their creativity, and collaborate with others to produce music that tells their story. And it doesn't stop there. The program culminates in performances where clients share their work and receive feedback, creating a supportive community that celebrates their progress.
Through this innovative approach, Terry Brent is helping people find hope and resilience through the power of music.
