Music therapy and cancer diagnosis
Widow of Raymond Isaac Lindsey..... And an author since 2012 and retired Specialist Registered Nurse. I reside in sub-tropical Queensland, Australia, with my two little dogs.
Late in 2008 I began to explore and enjoy the realm of creative writing. This is something which has always been an interest yet until now,I haven't found time to indulge.
God is the cornerstone of my home and heart. He is my life and my breath, for without Him I am nothing. My desire is to edify His existence in my daily walk through life. To inspire and encourage the broken hearted. And to assist in the knowledge that EVERYTHING has a reason and a purpose under the Heavens.
We are reminded through our faith in Jesus that He will, "Turn our Mourning into Dancing and our Sorrow into Joy." Psalms 30:11. Having personally experienced tough times I know, there is truly no gain without pain.
CREDENTIALS: B.N (Aus) B.S.N (U.S.A) MHN, PHTLS Emergency Medicine, plus Psychology and

ReplyDeleteThis is very interesting. I've heard of music therapy but not in the sense of actually having the patients perform the music. Three harpist recently did a concert for our retired sisters in Washington. The three women are involved in music therapy, particularly with patients who are dying. I thought it was interesting about having patients use an ipod. I have a small MP3 player and I've used it when I'm flying. I know it calms me down because I'm fearful on the plane. I also use music very often for prayer.
ReplyDeleteConsidering that stress is a proven contributor to cancer formation, anything to reduce that stress would have to help.
ReplyDeleteI too have heard of music therapy - when my grandson was little - there was a program called Babies Can't Wait - they had music therapy - someone came over to the house and played music -to help the GS talk - he was a late bloomer.
