State Implementation of Authentic Music Therapy

 State Implementation of Authentic Music Therapy  Problem It is not known how to be consistently happy. Abstract The efficacy of evidence-based methods, or evidence-based therapy treatment EBT, was studied at inpatient behavioral treatment facilities in the United States to determine both short and long-term efficacy in generation z individuals (born 1997-2012) in the United States. WHAT IS EBT Evidence treatment therapy is trauma-survivor focused therapy and methods used such as with Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a form of talk therapy that can be used to treat people with a wide range of health problems, including generalized or social anxiety disorders. Music therapy is an empirically evidenced intervention to help people improve their daily behavioral and mental health, and overall wellbeing. Interventions of music therapy address goals around the individual regulating his or her behavior, the way they cope with...

Arizonans Safeguard Against Covid and Other Disease(s)

Image
How quickly we forget It was January 2020 when Covid reached the desert in Phoenix, Ariz. As of June 3, 2021, Arizona Public Health Authorities reported 322 cases of Covid 19 and five deaths. Recent X twitters, April 2025, from 'alleged' someone in the recruiting sector asked for explanation of absence during Covid.....Come on, stay with us. Analogies are great in writing. If you don't forget x girlfriends or boyfriends, out of purported mutual respect or perhaps a flame that still burns, you do not forget something like Covid. (Guess that implied love is a disease of the heart, lol. Things that rock your world: no pun intended. I'm wondering if people just smoke too much weed or something that affects their memory or, perhaps, hold an insane level of narcissism. And this is not suggested of the human resource and recruiting field in which I'm a contributor. This being said, forgetting about the grievous impact of COVID-19 and its mutations, the disease was never so...

PTSD, War, Death, Rape, etc.

Writing things down and researching has become very personal to me -- as a mechanism, or tool, to mediate PTSD -- such as exposure to war and loss (as in addressing it therapeutically), as that's the only means I could use to serve. Many Veterans I worked with utilize music as a method to treat trauma. And for me, in lieu of bracketing issues, regulating my stress level is chosen music therapy -- particularly Metallica.  Rape victims, and those who suffered war/death/injury first-hand, or heard about events during therapy sessions can choose many therapeutic measures to address trauma exposure. Music and art therapy are effective measures to mediate trauma (Landis-Shack, et. al., 2017), as perhaps many challenges address statue of limitations. And it's beautiful how Veterans tackle trauma first-hand. References Landis-Shack, N., Heinz, A. J., & Bonn-Miller, M. O. (2017).

Pope and Mourning the Loss of Father(s)

Image
We dare to say, how to mourn a father after monumental loss --The Big Empty (Walking shoes worn thin) It is symbolic of comparative themes and saturation as a prolonged exposure of loss. Consider loss of a father as a Veteran and loss of a father, say, as a religious education teacher to the point of confirmation.  The sense of loss felt is unimaginable.  However, mothers, who are also teachers and developers, must keep moving in caring for their own biological and religious families. Ceasing to exist in this form, as existence in nature, is not an option. Mothers do not EVER abandon their children or their religious families. Loss is not only physical it is biological as akin to post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and manifests as damage to the host body. For example, diseases of inflammation and the heart. To deal with survivors' guilt, one needs to bracket or channel emotions effectively in order to deescalate levels of cortisol, a fight or flight trauma hormone, in the b...

Lights on Anyone Home?

When “Wray” said “We See lights everywhere” he wasn't talking about klieg lights from the theatre, however it could be aligned to President H.W. Bush's reference to 1,000 points of light to symbolize an individual's service to the community. The phrase is used as a memory time stamp, mnemonic, of clothed security and plain clothed security, as well as academic researchers in a S.W. Arizona business community and LDX with management. This data describes simultaneous actions of many self-celebrative management and of some of perps, to describe pre contemplated actions, and those based on social exchange beneficence, in parallel with ongoing ethnographic lived experience research conducted in a building supply stores.
