In this episode, Music Therapist Joel Kay uncovers the multiple facets music has to heal, relax, and relieve pain.


Joel Kay

Today's Lexi: 

ΜΟΥΣΙΚΗ — Mousiki (Music)

In today's episode:

Board certified Music Therapist, Joel Kay, discusses the vast healing advantages of music.

Firstly, what is music therapy and how does one set goals using this process?

Can music help someone in pain?  The therapy is used in a variety of settings, which you will learn about today. 

Interesting points of discussion involve:

  • The notion of music in nature
  • Iso principle
  • Functional music
  • Music and de-stressing the mind
  • Get started calming your nerves by merely singing out loud or in the shower. 

    Another way music and can help one achieve a goal is to learn an instrument.  The easiest starting point is with the harmonica lessons (they can be found on YouTube).

    Ola Kala Moment:

    For today's Ola Kala Moment: All is well when you let the music in nature move your soul.
