Seeking Balance: Neuroplasticity, Brain Health and Wellbeing
Joey Remenyi talks with Allison Davies about music and the brain. We discuss why music is so powerful for our whole brain, how music is a regulatory tool that we all have access to, the blocks to feeling musical, society challenges and the gift of neurodivergence. Learn more about Joey here: https://www.seekingbalance.com.au/our-story/ Learn more about Alli here: https://allisondavies.com.au/
Honestly, our kids get a rough go. What we often expect of them at a young age can far outweigh what their brain can actually manage — and we don't even realise we're doing it! Today we're finishing our chat with Allison Davies.Today we're chatting about the importance of predictability for children, Hyperactivity and her family's journey from homeschooling to schooling.You can catch the first part of our conversation in last week's episode.
In this episode, we chat to former Neurologic Music Therapist Allison who stepped out of the allied health system after 16 years, and now focuses on enacting societal change by dismantling harmful musical myths. To get a sense of what Alli is all about, I thought I'd read one of her quotes which I love.‘As a woman I was suppressed by the systems that told me to ‘be seen and not heard', to ‘stop being hysterical' and to ‘not give up my day job' in response to my musical expression.Others were led to believe that not being able to play an instrument, sing in tune or access lessons meant they were ‘not musical'. Some were told to mime in the school choir. Many were punished for using their voice to speak up.These systems are coming to an end.AND WE ARE THE ONES DISMANTLING THEM.”Oof. Did you feel that? Yes? Then let's chat to Alli about music and the brain, how to use music to help children regulate and how we are all musical. This is episode one of two of our chat together.
Aveen talks with Allison Davies about the importance of music for feeling safe, using musical mantra to enhance our lives and the importance of recognizing and nurturing neurodivergent beings. I loved speaking with Allison! A little about Allison: Allison Davies creates online resources for parents, educators and support staff and works with schools to deliver professional development around the topics of childhood brain development and the use of music as a regulatory tool. She is an independent liberatory scholar currently exploring the gatekeeping and classism of the social construct ‘musical vs non musical'. A former Registered Music Therapist of 16 years, Alli left the Allied Health industry in 2021 in order to align her work more deeply with culturally responsive practices and to switch her focus from individual change to socio cultural change. Alli is an autistic person with attention, sensory processing and executive functioning difficulties. She works within a neurodiversity framework that favours deep acceptance and regulation over assimilation and intervention, and shares her lived experience of autism openly within her seminars, workshops and conferences as part of her ‘emotive storytelling mixed with science' approach to education. https://www.allisondavies.com.au https://www.facebook.com/allisondavies.com.au/ https://www.youtube.com/c/AllisonDaviesMusicandTheBrain/featured
Allison Davies was working as a music therapist when she started to go through the process of getting her daughter assessed for autism. It was then she noticed that the boxes she was ticking for her daughter also applied to her. This led Allison on her own path to an autism diagnosis. Allison explains what the world looks like through her eyes, giving some insight to how some people experience on the spectrum. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Please leave a review on your podcast player and help parents find us! Memorable Quote “And I think probably the most important point to reiterate right now is that is really bloody hard. Like there is nothing easy about honouring a meltdown or an angry outburst. There is nothing easy about us staying regulated and consciously in control enough to then come in and not start to discipline. It's so hard for us to come in with love.” – Allison Davies Resources Allison Davies Allison on Facebook Allison on Instagram Bio Allison Davies (she/her) lives and works on Tommeginne land, Lutruwita (Tasmania), Australia. She creates online resources for parents and teachers seeking guidance around how to use music therapeutically in their own lives, and to reclaim their inherent musicality along the way.

On today's Episode, LoriAnn interviews Multi-Time Award Winning Music Therapist Allison Davies.www.allisondavies.com.au
We live in a unique time in human history where the brain has to cope with the sheer amount of sensory information that it has not yet evolved to deal with. Brain care cuts through this noise and keeps the brain in prime condition to do the things it is designed to do in the first place. Australian neurologic music therapist and brain care specialist Allison Davies joins Dr. Timothy Hayes to talk about some of the fundamentals of brain care and the role music plays in maintaining a healthy brain. Allison believes that humans are musical beings and that the brain is a musical organ. She encourages us to care for our brains by releasing our pent-up emotions, reducing sensory overload, and reclaiming our inherent musicality. Love the show?
