Seated2Serve - Power of a Positive Playlist
Show Notes

Music Therapist John Chester talks with Host Jeff Bickerstaff about how music can be used for healing psychological and occupational therapies. Enjoy this timely discussion and share it with everyone you know. Music is the second most powerful memory trigger, are you paying attention to what you're listening to? It might be possible music you enjoy takes you back to a place you're glad you're not anymore! 

Do you believe music has the power to affect your emotions? John says the answer is always YES. We need a ladder up, not a shovel down, so John suggests we start exposing ourselves to other types of music to become more aware of our emotional response. 

What to do? Listen in to discover how to create a positive playlist that helps you navigate your life in a proactive way. You get to make the choice, and choice doesn't necessarily mean choosing something according to your 'taste'. John walks you through labeling your playlist according to how you want to feel or when you need to hear it. 

Addiction, depression, psychosis, trauma, and even dexterity after injury - and more - are responsive to music therapy. This is such an important podcast, who do you know who needs to talk to John? Employers will enjoy understanding how music helps keep the mental health of staff. We should respect the power behind what we're piping in to lobbies, phone trees, and even administrative areas.
