Join Eartha on a guided “Playlist” exercise aimed at helping participants discover how their bodies respond to different musical situations. The playlist consists of instrumental clips representing various scenarios.  Eartha encourages participants to perform a body scan while listening, noting their physical reactions without judgment. Be open to the importance of recognizing distracting thoughts. Distracting thoughts can be compared  to squirrels jumping around in their environment. During the practice if a distraction pulls your focus away, Eartha invites you to write down any triggers or negative reactions before moving on. 

Eartha discusses the importance of managing stress by taking deep breaths and choosing calm responses to challenging situations.  While life is full of unpredictable stressors, individuals have the power to control their reactions through mindful breathing and decision-making. Eartha reminders listeners to seek support from friends, family, religious leaders, or healthcare providers when facing difficult situations.
