This week Clint speaks with Miranda Boothe. Miranda is a long-time resident of Louisiana leaving only to complete music therapy coursework at the University of Alabama to become a board-certified music therapist. Prior to music therapy studies, she completed foundational studies in vocal music education at The University of Louisiana at Monroe. As an educator, Miranda acquired experience as a public school teacher and a private music instructor with a primary focus of singing, piano, and guitar instruction. As a new resident of Shreveport, she is excited to provide quality music therapy experiences to those who might benefit from them for wellness, mental health, medical, and rehabilitative treatment. She has acquired experience with traumatic brain injury, dementia, depression, anxiety, substance use, post-traumatic stress disorder, pain, cognitive delays, cognitive impairment, and quality of life. It is her desire to use music therapy to address client needs in areas of cognition, emotional processing, communication, socialization, motor, and sensory goals.

But I think even adults, even adults who haven't been through trauma can tell you that it's sometimes difficult to talk about our feelings. I think that is the beauty of music therapy. Because clients can come. They don't necessarily need to say exactly what they want to explore. We can just explore in music. Hi Neighbor, Did you know that music can be a powerful tool for healing in the lives of adopted children navigating trauma? Today, I'm excited to welcome back my neighbor from London, Crystal Luk-Worrall. Crystal is a music therapist, EMDR practitioner, and clinical supervisor who specializes in helping children and families heal from early trauma. In Episode 180, Crystal introduced us to EMDR therapy—a powerful approach for adoptive parents supporting kids through trauma. In this episode, she shares her personal journey—from aspiring concert pianist to discovering her true calling as a music therapist. Crystal explains how music opens up new pathways for communication and healing. Music allows kids to express what words often can't. In therapy, it becomes a bridge—not just between sounds, but to feelings that may be too big or complex to name. As parents, we can help our children explore their emotions rather than suppress them. Grab a pen and paper—Crystal has some simple, practical ways you can start incorporating music therapy at home. Anchors of Hope and Healing are on the way. Your Neighbor, Tim P.S. You're not alone in this journey. If you haven't joined our private community, consider this an invitation. It's a safe space to share your struggles and triumphs with fellow adoptive parents who truly understand what you're going through. Listen to today's episode and share it with fellow adoptive parents. These conversations foster strength and understanding in our community. Be the anchor others may need right now.

Periodically on TRUST ME I KNOW WHAT I'm DOING , we share a SPOTLIGHT conversation and feature brief chats with an individual from the community about a special topic or a unique endeavor. Now while we truly should strive for mental wellness all the time, May is mental health awareness month, and there's no more obvious place to focus our energy than on something we too often take for granted… our breathing. So I'm going to take a yogic approach, drawing from the teachings of both my parents who are yoga instructors and remembering some of the daily habits of my grandparents. Breathing is essentially the most outward demonstration of our “prana”, the Sanskrit word that refers to our innate universal life force, and through “ayama” the Sanskrit word which  means to  regulate or control or lengthen, we can therefore use the practice of "pranayama" to not just consciously understand our breathing, but also optimize and even increase that life force and harmonize our mind, body, and spirit. Now whether it's deeply practicing this living science of pranayama or simply pausing briefly to become more conscious of our breathing, the benefits can be quite extensive for so many physical and mental concerns.  So it was especially terrific to have a conversation about…well… breathing with Dr. Amit Anand, who is a pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine specialist AND a master yoga teacher -  truly a breathing superhero. With an academic medicine background, training in both Mumbai at KEM and in Boston at Harvard, Amit has been a rigorous practitioner, clinical teacher, and researcher.  Fortunately for many patients and students alike, he has taken his experience and integrated this evidence based medical approach with an expertise in yoga training, meditation, breathwork, and pranayama. Amit is the founder of Pranayamarx,  leading live and online yoga workshops and pranayama courses. He is also the co-founder of Breathonance,  a science-based breathwork experience that integrates the yogic teachings of Pranayama with resonant musical rhythms. I actually caught a live demo this year and I was struck by a few things: the importance of creating space for this, how little time was actually required vs the perception of what was required, and the beautiful convergence of music, meditation, and breathing.  Now, I know that all of you know this, but the content and conversation here should not be taken as medical advice, and is for informational purposes only, and because each person is so unique, please consult your own healthcare professional team for any medical questions. And so as Amit and I caught up to chat, we started with the very basic question that was in front of both of us particularly as doctors, in why we all tend to be so painfully unaware of our own breathing?And you can visit breathonance.com to learn more about Amit's vision and the musical expertise of co-founder Clint Valladares

Crystal explains why music therapy is likely a great choice and how children often heal better from trauma through creative expression in music, play, and movement. Together, they discuss how trauma-informed music therapy builds trustworthy connections and emotional safety and why traditional therapy isn't always enough. In this episode, you'll find invaluable advice that actually heals trauma, small daily rituals you can do to build connections and feelings of safety, and practical ways to support healing from trauma.

Episode #968 Ever have a song take you back to a moment in your life—instantly? That's not just nostalgia. It's your nervous system responding to sound. In this episode, I sit down with Levi Goins, the man we call the “ranch wizard” at TPM—but today, we're tapping into one of his true gifts: the healing power of personalized music. Levi's been quietly changing lives behind the scenes using custom music therapy tracks. We're talking about music that's actually designed to anchor you into the man you want to be—whether that's the calm leader walking through your front door or the powerful father fully present with his kids. We get into how sound affects your emotional state, how to create music that becomes a personal trigger for peace, presence, or energy—and why even guys with zero musical talent (like me) can do this. This isn't about learning an instrument. It's about creating something that sticks with you, wherever you go, and gets you back to your best. You don't need a playlist. You need a personal soundtrack.

Send us a textOn a recent episode of a podcast, guest Amarillo Valle (pronounced Vi-yah) said, "We say, happiness is an inside job. Well, peace is an inside job, too!" His statement shook me. It woke me up from some deep slumber, a type of recurring dream where I kept putting others in charge of my experience, my joy, my happiness, my peace. Why did I give away my power? When did it happen? And how do I endeavor to take back the reins? I think Season Five of Curious Cat is that journey. Finding the bridge between what culture had said are two opposite forces, then harvesting the magic there.This week's exploration of the bridge is via music. A melody can move me to tears. Singing snaps me out of a funk. Humming makes my brain work better. Music is the way the dead reach out to me most often, maybe because it's the channel I'm open to receiving information on best.My first hint to the power of music was as a young mother. Once a week, I ventured out of the house to the local hospital and joined the moms class with my newborn. There were babies of many ages there, including some in the six to nine month range. I learned from the first class by observing, that age could get antsy, squirmy and the parent would stand up, hold the baby with two arms out front, and with the baby's back to them, the parent would rock forward and backward on their heels. That worked to calm the antsy babies. But if one baby began to cry, soon out of empathy, all the babies would join in. That's when we were instructed to sing, Twinkle, Twinkle, which the entire class did. And within seconds, all the babies quieted, eyes watching, calm. It was pure magic.Some of my most potent memories of my daughters as babies involved music, playing songs on a speaker or radio and dancing with them in my arms. I'm smiling ear to ear as I share this. Is there a song that makes you feel calm? Sad? Brings up a funny memory? Or annoys the heck out of you?Mine is Twelve Days of Christmas. If I'm preparing a meal for the family and that song comes on? Oh my gosh. It sends my anxiety through the roof. Music can help us fall asleep, a certain song can give us more energy than a cup of coffee,  enough to stay alert behind the wheel on a long drive, and impacts how we heal, recover, learn and rest. I've pulled the latest research from the internet and can't wait to share. Let's get into it.Show Sources & What to Watch/Listen/Read NEXTSound Heals, the movie, Thomas Durant (on Amazon for rental)The Healing Power of Sound as Meditation, Psychology TodayHave you tried the GoodPods app yet?

You can also find them on Instagram at @Ritualsheltershoppe and on Pinterest at Ritual+Shelter. As this podcast airs, we find ourselves in a powerful energy portal, sandwiched between two eclipses and navigating Mercury retrograde. The planetary shifts are aligning to create a wave of revolutionary energy, especially with the bold and passionate Aries influence we felt during the Spring Equinox. This transformative energy is encouraging us to stand firm in our truth. Amidst the surrounding fear and controversy—what to believe and what not to believe—we're given a unique opportunity to reflect on our own beliefs and the changes we wish to see in the world. It's time to take actionable steps toward the transformation that is calling us. Reflecting on the 1960s, we witnessed the pre-dawn of the Age of Aquarius, characterized by protests, activism, and powerful music. Today, we are in a new age, and it's crucial to listen to the signs around us. Ignoring them only amplifies their intensity. My work focuses on guiding individuals to connect with their spirit—not through religion, but by tapping into the energy within our hearts and souls. This inner evolution begins one person at a time, creating a ripple effect that allows others to evolve as well. As we emerge from winter—a time for honoring wisdom—we're now ready to plant new seeds of intention. This inner work cannot be about merely following others; it must stem from our own truths. Holding onto our beliefs and radiating that light is essential. Establishing a spiritual practice can sharpen our focus. Research shows the average person has less than 2.9 seconds of attention. Learning to center ourselves, asking meaningful questions, and spending time in nature are critical practices right now. Energy Tools can assist us in connecting with our subtle energy bodies, helping us transcend mere mental engagement. It's important to address all layers of our being: mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual. While many of us understand the need for physical care and mental clarity through therapy, we must also recognize the significance of our emotional and spiritual health. Just because we can't see energy doesn't mean it isn't there. By trusting and engaging with it, we can elevate our vibrations, releasing stress, fear, and overwhelm, and embracing love, joy, and peace. This shift leads to a happier, more fulfilling life. If you're unsure where to begin, I invite you to schedule a spiritual upgrade or breakthrough call with me. Let's discuss your current situation and explore the steps you can take on your transformative journey. I'll include the link in the show notes. In today's episode, I'm thrilled to delve into the incredible insights from the new book, "Activating Our 12 Stranded DNA," by my guest, Ruslana Remennikova. The concepts she shares are truly fascinating, prompting me to slow down and fully grasp the depth of her message about working with our DNA. What does 12-Stranded DNA mean? It encompasses sound frequency, water consciousness, generational trauma, and the transformative ability to shift your DNA to unlock your spiritual potential. This journey allows us to connect deeply within ourselves, aiding not only our own healing but also contributing to the healing of the planet and addressing the past, present, and future of our personal journeys. Ruslana Remennikova is a former research scientist for the Fortune 100-ranked company ThermoFisher Scientific where she worked with vaccine sciences. In a 2016 leap of faith for a more meaningful life, she left the world of corporate science to later open a sound medicine practice while writing her first book. She is the founder of Songbird Science, a research company exploring the intersection of frequency, consciousness, and wellness. Her sound medicine practice has integrated into VCU/MCV healthcare system, where it continues to promote holistic healing and well-being. Born in Ukraine, she currently resides in central Virginia.
