We began composing music & text for individual clients
suffering from post-traumatic stress. Clients would talk about
their favourite places to wind down, or imaginary situations
which reduced their anxiety. With my background in both poetry
and music, I composed music with low BPS (beats per minute)
to slow down pulse and breathing. The text - impressionistic
rather than narrative- was personalised so that we spoke directly
to the client- an easy way to reinforce suggestions made in
therapy and reduce stress between sessions. |
