Larry The Radio Guy Musical Therapy Radio Program (16) RE: Musical Therapy Radio Program 11 Jul 14


Right now the program is on an internet stream and via a podcast (through the link).   Peach City Radio is in the process of applying for an FM license for the Penticton area.

I have a huge list of possible therapeutic themes. To get an idea as to how I put these themes together with the music, I invite you to listen to one of the 4 programs that have already been posted in our archives.   (again, see the link above).

Some of the themes---and with all of them, the 'therapeutic' part includes helping people feel they are less alone as they realize others share these same dilemmas and issues, as well as inspiring ideas for moving beyond the 'problem'. towards some kind of solution.

THemes include:
Mindfulness (I'm currently working on a couple programs on this)
Addiction
Search for Meaning
Catharsis
Aging
Working
Forgiveness
Anger
Apathy and Engagement
Boundaries and Walls
Empathy
Forgiveness
The Fragile Male Ego
Interpersonal Effectiveness (Communicating Effectively).
Connection
Men and Women
Giving Back
Identity
Resilience
Life's Journey

and many others.

If anybody has ideas for songs that illustrate these themes, I'd love to hear them. I particularly need Canadian songs as I am required, in most instances, to play 35% Canadian content (a Canadian Radio and Television Commission requirement).

Thanks.

-Larry
