Music we give a pass to with its boundaries, with our boundaries, because we say: well, I like anything that that artist does, be it nirvana or whoever, and I let them just say anything they want, because pink floyd or whoever is branded on my heart to where I like anything they do.
Can the tunes you love actually shape your life? In this episode of 'Power of a Positive Playlist', J. Ivor Chester III tackles a question many have pondered: Is your music safe? With over 25 years of experience as a music therapist, Chester shares his unique perspective on how the songs we choose can affect our mental and emotional well-being.
He argues that while there's no such thing as 'unsafe' music, what we listen to can have profound impacts on our subconscious. Chester explains that music can be both a healing tool and a harmful influence, depending on how it's used. He dives into Chapter 6 of his book, 'Itty Bitty Book of Positive Playlists', to illustrate how creating a positive playlist can foster emotional healing and growth.
But it's not all sunshine and rainbows; Chester also discusses the darker side of music, including its potential to be manipulated by political agendas. By the end of the episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of why it's crucial to be mindful of your musical choices. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the deeper effects of their favorite tunes and looking to use music as a tool for personal growth.
