In this episode, psychotherapist John Tsilimparis joins me to explore a more compassionate approach to grief, inspired by his book The Magic in the Tragic. We discuss how our “be strong and move on” culture often discourages us from truly honoring loss — and why grief, when faced rather than avoided, can build emotional resilience.John shares his personal story of loss, the myth of closure, the concept of “forbidden suffering,” and practical tools for working with anxiety and worry. At its core, this conversation is about learning to stay with pain, transform it, and discover unexpected meaning — even in our darkest days.In this episode, John discusses:How Our Culture Avoids DeathHis Origin Story and LossForbidden Suffering ExplainedThe Purpose of Grief ResilienceAnxiety Trends and ScreensThe Dangers of Avoiding PainInspiration Exposure PracticeMusic and HopeNobility of SufferingHonoring SufferingGuilt and JoyRituals and ReverenceWrite a Sympathy LetterA 'Reducing Worry' PracticeThree Anxiety PillarsAesthetic Mindset ToolsMyth of ClosureLiving With GriefResilience and MeaningTherapy Work and ResourcesVisit John's website________BECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course For more information about Wendy's new visionary fiction book, Raven's Daughter, or to purchase a copy, visit Three Worlds PressVisit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  Lucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube  ★ Support this podcast ★

Den lever i os," sagde han.En: "Music is not just notes. It lives within us," he said.Da: Kasper svarede med et beslutsomt nik.En: Kasper responded with a determined nod.Da: "Jeg kan mærke det nu. Vi skal bare blive ved."En: "I can feel it now. We just have to keep going."Da: Det spontane øjeblik i Odense Domkirke blev en ny begyndelse for dem.En: The spontaneous moment in Odense Domkirke became a new beginning for them.Da: Emil følte en brændende lyst til at undervise med ny passion.En: Emil felt a burning desire to teach with new passion.Da: Freja opdagede modet til at synge igen, og Kasper besluttede at konfrontere sin selvtvivl en dag ad gangen.En: Freja discovered the courage to sing again, and Kasper decided to confront his self-doubt one day at a time.Da: Udenfor begyndte sneen at falde igen, men i deres hjerter bar de forårets varme, bragt til live af musikkens kraft.En: Outside, the snow began to fall again, but in their hearts, they carried the warmth of spring, brought to life by the power of music.Da: Og i den gamle domkirke, hvor lyse toner engang igen havde bragt sjæle sammen, fandt tre venner deres vej tilbage til musikkens magi.En: And in the old cathedral, where bright notes once again had brought souls together, three friends found their way back to the magic of music.

Living with anxiety spikes, focus fog, or constant sensory overload as an autistic, AuDHD, or ADHD adult—and wondering if music could actually help your brain calm down? This episode of Adulting With Autism explores music therapy for autistic adults with Dr. Barb Minton, a psychologist and neuroscientist who started as a pipe organ major and went on to create the Calm the Storm album with guitarist Peppino D'Agostino.​ Dr. Barb explains how music can entrain brain waves—how tempo, rhythm, and sound textures can gently guide the nervous system toward calmer or more focused states. She shares how specific choices (like slower tempos around 60–80 beats per minute for calm, or slightly faster tempos around 110–120 for focus) may support sleep, pain management, migraines, and attention, and why the body "hears" vibration through mechanoreceptors as well as through your ears.​ You will hear stories of how music has been used to support neurodivergent adults, including those with autism and ADHD, and how to experiment safely: choosing tracks that feel regulating rather than overwhelming, adjusting volume, and noticing your own responses instead of following rigid rules. Dr. Barb also talks about why music is still underused in mainstream care despite promising research and real-world results.​ This episode is especially helpful if you: Feel overstimulated or shut down and want non-medication tools to try Are curious whether specific music choices could help with anxiety, focus, or sleep Want a more science-informed understanding of why certain music "works" for your brain If this conversation supports you, follow/subscribe to Adulting With Autism on Podbean, Apple, or Spotify and leave a 5-star review so more neurodivergent adults can find it.

One spring evening in 2024, science journalist Rachel Gross bombed at karaoke. The culprit was a bleed in a fist-sized clump of neurons tucked down in the back and bottom of her brain called the Cerebellum. A couple weeks later, her doctors took a piece of it out, assuring her it just did basic motor control - she might be a bit clumsy for a while, but she'd still be herself. But after that surgery Rachel did not feel quite like herself. So she dove into the dusty basement of the brain (and brain science)  to figure out why. What Rachel found was a new frontier in neuroscience. We learn what singing Shakira on stage has to do with reaching for a cup of coffee  — and why the surprising relationship between those two things means we may need to rethink what we think about thinking.Special thanks to Warzone Karaoke at Branded Saloon, the Computer History Museum for their archival interview with Henrietta Leiner, either the choir “Singing Together, Measure by Measure” or the Louis Armstrong Department of Music Therapy which houses it, Daniel A.

Welcome to this week's episode of When Words Fail, Music Speaks—the podcast that explores how melody and lyric become a lifeline in the toughest moments.I'm your host, James Cox, and today I'm sitting down with folklaur—the soulful indie‑folk artist behind the hauntingly intimate album Leaves & Letters. Hailing from Philadelphia, Laura (who cleverly turned her English‑major love of stories into the moniker “folklaur”) invites us into the quiet spaces where her music lives—those still‑water moments that linger long after the final note fades.In our conversation we wander through Philly's vibrant but underrated live‑music scene, swap stories about cheesesteaks and creative compromises, and dig deep into the paradox of being alone to connect with a community. Folklaur shares how she balances raw emotion with lyrical storytelling, wrestles with perfectionism in the studio, and discovers that the most powerful songs are often the ones that feel imperfect.We also get a rapid‑fire “lightning round” that reveals her late‑night writing ritual, her love for silence before a track, the word she over‑uses (community), and the artists who shape her—Taylor Swift, Stevie Nicks, Noah Kahn, and Greasy Abrams.If you've ever felt unheard, wrestled with anxiety, or simply crave music that feels like a gentle, honest conversation, stay tuned. By the end of this episode you'll understand why Folklore believes that “music heals because it's real,” and you'll leave with a renewed sense that you matter—just as her songs intend.Press play, settle in, and let the healing power of Folklore's music speak.

Insightful and incisive music commentary every time, with this edition featuring iconic artists and breakthrough newcomers. From the Super Bowl to Greenland, live shows, tribute bands, legal tangles, meaningful anniversaries, and more. It's a great ride!

EVEN MORE about this episode!What if music could calm anxiety, reduce pain, and even transform the surgical experience—without medication? Join Alice Hudnall Cash, PhD, as she reveals the science and soul behind music as medicine. A pioneering clinical musicologist and psychotherapist, Dr. Cash shares how rhythmic entrainment, instrumental music, and ancient healing traditions can influence the body at a cellular level—helping patients relax, heal faster, and feel safer during medical procedures. Through powerful real-life stories, she illustrates how music doesn't just move us emotionally—it physically changes us.This episode weaves together cutting-edge medical innovation and centuries-old wisdom, exploring solfeggio frequencies, medieval healing traditions, and the deep spiritual roots of music. Dr. Cash also shares personal stories of a lifelong musical lineage, from early piano lessons to Moravian musical traditions, revealing how music becomes part of who we are—almost like it's written into our DNA.From operating rooms and Alzheimer's care to patented medical devices now used worldwide, Dr. Cash's groundbreaking work is reshaping how medicine views healing. This conversation will change how you think about music forever—and may just have you listening with new ears to the healing harmony already surrounding you.Guest Biography:Alice Hudnall Cash, PhD, LCSW, is a clinical musicologist and licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience researching and working with surgical patients. She holds a Bachelor and Master of Music in piano performance, a PhD in clinical musicology, and a Master's in clinical social work from the University of Louisville. While on staff at the University of Louisville School of Medicine in the mid-1990s, Dr. Cash identified the untapped power of music during surgery and developed a simple, evidence-based method using purely instrumental music paced to a healthy resting heartbeat to promote rhythmic entrainment. Her work led to a U.S. patent in 2008 for a method and apparatus to reduce anxiety and pain perception during medical procedures. Today, her pre-loaded headphones and MP3 players are used in hospitals worldwide, with five therapeutic playlists available on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Originally focused on surgical patients, her work now supports hospitals, surgery and dialysis centers, and a wide range of applications including chemotherapy, pain management, dentistry, ketamine infusions, and anxiety reduction, while also educating audiences on the distinction between music therapy and music medicine.Episode Chapters:(0:00:01) - Healing Powers of Music and Sound(0:09:14) - Music Medicine and Healing Origins(0:15:44) - Exploring Music Therapy Opportunities(0:20:15) - Music Therapy in Surgery Implementation(0:34:30) - Healing Power of Instrumental Music(0:41:03) - Music, Math, and Spiritual Connections(0:46:26) - Power of Music in Divine Connection➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Español YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Português YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Deutsch YouTube➡️Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan Français YouTube✏️Ask Julie a Question!

It has been years 7 years since I've been to Nashville andway too long since I've seen my friend and Illinois native Lauren Anderson who moved to Music City from Kansas City nearly nine years ago.  She returned to Kansas City recently toparticipate in a monthly Lyrical Belles residency in the Gospel Lounge at Knuckleheads. The stars aligned for me to have her join me on the radio for a gabfest and a few tunes before she headed off to the bustling metropolis of Red Cloud, Nebraska.  These are heady times for Lauren as she was part of TeamSnoop on Season 28 of NBC's The Voice TV show.  We catch up on how her life has incorporated that crazy and uniqueexperience.  American has now witnessed her powerhouse voice, raw honesty, and fiery stage presence. Though her voice now lives in blues, soul, and rock,Lauren's roots are deeply classical. She began piano at eight, sang in multiple choirs, and pursued classical voice through high school and college. She earned her Bachelor's degree in vocal performance from Augustana College, including atransformative summer in Italy, studying Italian and touring as an opera student. Opera was the original plan—until she discovered she was meant to belt, wail, and testify through soul and blues.Lauren pursued a Master's degree in Music Therapy at TheUniversity of Kansas. She trained in jails, schools, and hospice settings while also working full-time as a preschool teacher and caregiver for adults with intellectual disabilities. Her master's thesis explored the use of music therapy to improve respiratory function and quality of life for children withCystic Fibrosis.Lauren survived a major medical crisis of her own. Afterdeveloping a blood clot caused by Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, she underwent decompression surgery that removed her first rib. Forced off the stage for six months and facing potential long-term nerve damage, she fought her way back to full recovery.Enjoy this conversation with and musical performance by myfriend, Lauren Anderson!

— Music is a remedy of the soul, a bridge between cultures, languages, and a range of emotions. Music Therapy is a clinical and evidenced-based healthcare profession that combines the power of music with skilled therapeutic interventions to address the physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals. Through musical involvement in the therapeutic context, clients' abilities are strengthened and transferred to other areas of their lives. Music therapy also provides avenues for communication that can be helpful to those who find it difficult to express themselves in words. The expressive nature of music can bring self-awareness and insight to individuals who desire increased wellness in their lives, and can be a powerful mode of therapy for anyone interested in exploring their inner world through music.

 We're Julietta and Graciela, and we're sooooo excited to invite you into our Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening chats, all served with a warm cup of cacao. You'll feel like one of the family during this podcast where we speak frankly, and humorously, about some of life's big questions. We share wisdom we've picked up along the way and wonder out loud about lots of life's mysteries. Whether we're diving deep into transformation, laughing at life's quirks, or simply talking about the weather (which is, like, a much bigger deal at this age, isn't it?!?), you get a front row seat to our sometimes crazy, mostly spiritual and always authentic lives. From sweat lodge ceremonies to sweaty teen socks, we cover it all. So, grab your favorite mug, fill it with cacao and join us for some profound laughter. Cacao Conversations is about empowering you to remember who you are and step into the life that feels authentically yours. How do you use sound or music to shift energy? Whether it's a drumming circle under the stars or blasting your favorite song in the car with the windows down, sound has the power to transform energy in an instant. In this vibrant episode, we're talking about the healing power of sound and music—and how you can use both as spiritual tools to clear blocks, reset your nervous system, and elevate your vibration. We'll explore everything from sound bowls and tuning forks to mantras, playlists, and primal screams (yes, really)—and share how these practices have helped us move through grief, expand joy, and reconnect with our bodies. If you've ever felt the chills from a single note or cried during a song you couldn't explain, you already know the magic we're talking about. This one's for the feelers, the healers, and anyone curious about the frequency of transformation. So pour your cacao, press play, and let's vibe higher—together. Your cup is ready. Your journey is waiting. Let's sip, chat, and transform—together. Find out more at https://www.bodyandsoulevents.love/ Hey! Thanks for listening! If you liked this episode, please send us a message.

Most of us can agree: music is awesome. Regardless of which songs speak to you, music probably plays an important role in your life. The question is, what makes music so powerful? Why does a particular combination of sounds and rhythms grab us and affect us in the way that it does? And is it true that music can help heal patients with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, PTSD, chronic pain, and more? To help us understand what we're learning about the neuroscience of music and how it can heal and enrich our lives, we're speaking with Daniel Levitin. He's a musician and a producer as well as a neuroscientist and bestselling author. His newest book is "I Heard There was a Secret Chord: Music As Medicine." Learn More:"I Heard There Was a Secret Chord" playlistMenon, V., & Levitin, D. J. (2005).

Today we're breaking down the occult sciences of frequency healing! The first 30 minutes is discussion about clothing (100% cotton effects, weight room pump covers), food preparation rituals and lethal bug sprays. At 30 minute mark we start in with the defining "frequencies", electromagnetic waves, brainwaves and ROYGBIV. Then we get into the ancient Hermetic sciences of the Emerald Tablets and The Kybalion's Principle of Vibration and how that fits into the illusory nature of reality and quantum physics (with some Twin Peaks for good measure). We wrap it up with real life science of light healing, LEDs, 432 Hz vs 440 Hz conspiracies, effects of music, Binaural beats, CIA Gateway project, flourescent light misery and how the nerds are gonna kill us!  LINKS:  MushroominatiWatcher coffee: OccultSymbolism.com You can now sign up for our commercial-free version of the show with a Patreon exclusive bonus show called “Morning Coffee w/ the Weishaupts” at Patreon.com/BreakingSocialNorms  OR subscribe on the Apple Podcasts app to get all the same bonus “Morning Coffee” episodes AD-FREE with early access!
