Exploring the Therapeutic Connection Between Music and Mental Health with Melinda Lawless-Coker and Marilisa Lawless

The Hemp Del Soul Podcast

Ever explored the profound connection between music and mental health? We, Melinda Lawless-Coker and Marilisa Lawless, family therapists at the Transformation Project, discuss this intriguing relationship and the therapeutic potential music holds. Acknowledging the recent release of the suicide prevention line 988, we underline the significance of such resources while taking a deep dive into how music can express and evoke a diverse range of emotions - from rage and despair to hope and positivity.
In the second part of our enlightening talk, we turn the spotlight on local artist Ebony Paris. She is creating waves in the Davie Jazz Society with her refreshing, uplifting approach to music. We discuss the upcoming gigs of the society and their mission to create a cultural haven on Davie Road. We also underscore the easy accessibility of help, through the 988 helpline and our services at the Transformation Project. So, prepare for a riveting conversation that seamlessly weaves music, mental health, and community upliftment. Let's create harmonious symphonies of understanding, hope, and healing together!
