Using Music to Heal

Many people do not understand the way memory and emotions work when it comes to music. Music is one of the best storers and retrievers of memory next to smell. We go through our lives without realizing that we mark our moments through music, songs, melodies, and rhythms. When we listen to a song that came out twenty years ago, and we get an emotional reaction to it right away, it is due to the memory or memories that are attached to that song. We can use this effect to help us through times of stress, trauma, drama, anxiety, and fear. Understanding that our emotions are heavily attached to sound can help us create a way to navigate these times by selecting the right music. TKS has developed a method that we call the mix-tape method, to help you understand how your memories and emotions are tied to music, and a way to organize those events in a manageable way. If you want to discuss how this may help you contact us at tksvhllc@gmail.com and ask about the Mix-Tape Method.
