Music Therapy 5/30/2024

On May 30, 2024, Danyelle Elder, Lead Music Therapist with Healing Sounds RVA, conducted a Music Therapy session with the members and staff. She led a brisk discussion about music and our recovery/development and performed a ‘Hello’ song in which she noted all attendees by name. Danyelle then distributed instruments and led a free-form jam session. We attendees generally had a very positive experience and look forward to more sessions.

TRAGEDY???

I REALLY NEVER KNEW LOVE BY OTHERS, UNTILL TRAGEDY. I DIDN'T KNOW IT AT FIRST FOR THEY WERE BEHIND ME, BACKING ME UP SILENTLY CHEERING ME ON. HELPING ME BEAT THE DARKNESS BEFORE THE DAWN. I AM FINALLY STARTING TO SEE THE LIGHT. REACHING, GRABBING AND PULLING MYSELF UP FROM UNDER THE DARK OF THE NIGHT. I GLANCE UP ASTONISHED TO SEE THAT IN THEIR OWN WAY MOST OTHER PEOPLE ARE IN THE SAME BOAT AS ME.

Who is really in control ???

We read " We the people of the United States of America", but in my opinion the mass of people are not in control. It is based on who has the most dollars and or power, and that turns out to be fewer than you think.

Social Program

About last week's Social Program - Joe's pizza and an outing to see 'One Love' at the theater - Bryan G noted that the movie was good but not exactly what was expected. He enjoyed the overall experience and chances to socialize with other members. Bryan would like to try indoor skydiving as a social program.

We are having fun at the Mill House.
