How do we begin to defrost from the cold? When we lose ourselves completely, where do we start looking first? Where do we find warmth when everything feels like ice? How do we begin to heal? From heartbreak...illness...death...trauma from world events? People have told me to 'ride the wave' of life since my older brother passed away, with its ups and downs. No one talks about that climb from the deep bottom and how slippery it is and how many times you might sink back down.

The story is a direct follow up to last week's episode and how I began to heal from the coldest night I have ever experienced in my life with music therapy. You are permanently human, but your feelings are fleeting. That is beautiful. Your song is beautiful, don't be afraid to let people hear every single chord struck within you, even the sad ones. It is possible to heal from a heartbreak and move through grief, but it is not easy. Nothing good ever is ever easy, but it's possible. For all of us.
