A Conversation on Emotional Resilience – Is Music the Answer?
“I’m such a failure!”
“I hurt people, and it’s all my fault.”
Spoken words of negativity.
We may have overheard such conversations amongst strangers or have had such talks with friends. Why do we have such negative thoughts? How did such perceptions appear in our minds? Thoughts of such can affect our emotions. Do such negative emotions affect our health and our relationships with our family, friends, and colleagues?
What can we do then to improve our relationships with people? How can we foster emotional resilience to improve our quality of life for ourselves and for the people around us?
Eileen Chai, a former national athlete-turned-musician & educator, will share briefly of her journey with her mental health condition, and how music has helped her & the people around her.
