Our incredibly talented team of Ashley Manges, MT-BC, Kristin King, MMT, MT-BC & Genessee Flynn, MT-BC worked together to create an original song..."The Coronavirus Anthem" to share with the world! Songwriting is a tool music therapists use regularly to express emotion and create connection in times of uncertainty, anxiety and stress. Music was made for just these times. We encourage everyone to find a way everyday to use music...to help your mind, spirit and physical wellbeing during this time. #musicchangeseverything.
