The Healing Power of Art: Linda Balliro on Mental Insights

Music affects you emotionally, but doing music or singing is actually changing the neural pathways, and so that's an unconscious effect on you.
Can art really make a difference in our mental well-being? In this episode of Mental Insights, Brendan Cutuli sits down with Linda Balliro, an associate professor of voice at Berklee College of Music and a seasoned vocal consultant, to discuss just that. Linda shares her fascinating journey of using art to help her students express their emotions and experiences more fully.
She explains how engaging in artistic activities like singing or playing an instrument can actually rewire our neural pathways, providing a unique avenue for emotional and mental healing. With a mix of personal anecdotes and scientific insights, Linda delves into how survival instincts play a role in skill development and how movement and tactile experiences in art therapy can help people overcome anxieties and limiting beliefs.
Whether you're struggling with mental health issues or just curious about the therapeutic benefits of art, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to discover how you can harness the power of art to develop calmness and awareness in your own life.
