Becky Watson, MBA, Board Certified Music Therapist during the Peninsula Task Force on Aging Meeting.
Thank you Peninsula Task Force on Aging for allowing me to share innovate ways to “BEAT out stress” with Boomwhackers.
This interactive presentation allowed the Peninsula Task Force on Aging to experience how to use Rhythm to decrease stress. An overview of the HealthRHYTHMS group empowerment drumming protocol was discussed. http://remo.com/experience/health-and-wellness
The HealthRHYTHMS Protocol is the foundation of our HealthRHYTHMS Group Empowerment Drumming Program, and consists of a series of 10 steps participants are guided through to facilitate communication and personal expression. Research has shown the results can include: increase in natural killer cell activity, reduction in stress and burnout rates, improvement in mood states, enhanced creativity and bonding, and more.
