<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
Today my guest is Kathy Lovell, who will talk about the Pacifer Activated Lullaby technology.
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
The PAL<sup>®</sup> technology is based on research
conducted at the Florida State University by Dr. Jayne Standley. An FSU
faculty member since 1976, Dr. Standley is recognized throughout the
United States as the foremost authority on medical music therapy. Researching
the effect of music on premature babies, she found they increased their
sucking rates 2.5 times when exposed to music, thus helping to increase their
weight. Aimed specifically at addressing a long-standing problem among
premature infants – delayed proficiencies in learning to suck – Dr.
Standley’ s musical pacifier has demonstrated what have been called “amazing”
results in repeated tests done at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. </div>

<h2>
<i>Introduction: Advocacy --> Recognition --> Access</i></h2>
Since 2005, the <a href="http://www.musictherapy.org/policy/stateadvocacy/">American Music Therapy Association</a> and the <a href="http://www.cbmt.org/advocacy/">Certification Board for Music Therapists</a> have collaborated on a State Recognition Operational Plan. The primary purpose of this Plan is to get music therapy and our MT-BC credential recognized by individual states so that citizens can more easily access our services. The AMTA Government Relations staff and CBMT Regulatory Affairs staff provide guidance and technical support to state task forces throughout the country as they work towards state recognition. To date, their work has resulted in 35 active state task forces, 2 licensure bills passed in 2011, and an estimated 10 bills being filed in 2012 that seek to create either a music therapy registry or license for music therapy. This month, our focus is on YOU and on getting you excited about advocacy.<br />
<br />
So my guests this week will be Judy Simpson, Dena Register, and Kimberly Sena Moore from the State Recognition Operational Plan to talk about Music Therapy Advocacy and how you can get involved! Join us <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mtshow/2012/01/13/music-therapy-advocacy-month" target="_blank">LIVE </a>at Noon EST/11 am CST/10 am MST/9 am PST or listen to the <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/mtshow/2012/01/13/music-therapy-advocacy-month" target="_blank">Archived Show</a>.

<div class="BodyA" style="line-height: 120%;">
My guest this week is Meryl Brown, who is a Board Certified Music
Therapist, Developmental Specialist, owner and Blogger with Developing
Melodies. She received her Masters
Degree in Music Therapy from Illinois State University and holds a Bachelor’s
Degree in Music Education from the Crane School of Music at The State
University of New York College at Potsdam.
Meryl has been providing music therapy for individuals
since 2006 and has worked with a variety of populations. In 2008, Meryl received her credential as a
Developmental Specialist which now allows her to receive reimbursement through
the State of Illinois for services provided.
</div>
<div class="BodyA" style="line-height: 120%;">
Her company was originally founded as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Brown
Music Therapy</i> in 2007, however,
following maternity leave (allowing plenty of time to think), the
business underwent a name change in 2011 to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Developing
Melodies. </i>This allowed her to expand
and market her services more effectively.
In addition to the name change, she developed a comprehensive website
including information about her, the services and a blog where she features songs,
activities, ideas and information for a variety of readers.</div>

I had a lot of fun with my niece and nephews at the Texas State Fair last Friday. I even saw my sister's blanket that she crocheted and entered into the fair. She received Honorable Mention!<br />
<br />
I'm ready to get back to the show, though, and am very excited about this week's guests: Megan Resig and Kimberly Thompson of <a href="http://www.mundanamusictherapy.com/" target="_blank">Mundana Music Therapy</a>.<br />
<br />
Kim and Megan share original songs, resources, and techniques related to music therapy, music education, wellness, and business. I have been wanting to "meet" these ladies for quite some time so I'm glad to have them on the show!<br />

Balance is the key to leading a healthy lifestyle<strong>.</strong>
Wellness is the dynamic process of becoming aware of, taking
responsibility for, and making choices that directly contribute to one's
well being and that of the common good. It is the integration of body,
mind and spirit and the ongoing development of one's own meaning in
life.<br />
<br />
In this week's show, I'll tell you about the dimensions of wellness and how I use them in music therapy.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;">Physical
challenges – we all have them! Everyone has that one spot on their back that is
hard to scratch. When an itch occurs, we ask a friend or spouse, “Will you
scratch my back? I have an itch I can’t reach,” as we pass an arm over the
opposite shoulder to point out where it itches. Then we say, “No! Just a little
to the right and a bit higher. Yes! That’s it!”<br />
<br />
Of course, some physical challenges are uniquely our own. My wife is a water
aerobics instructor and she loves choreographing exercises and leading them for
her students. In our marriage this illustrates an incompatibility issue. As you
can guess, my wife is very coordinated; I am not. Once she tried to instruct me
to do an aquatic exercise. We got in the pool, and she said, “Move your legs
like you are skiing.” <br />
<br />
After a few minutes I kind of got the hang of it. Then she said, “Move your
arms opposite the direction of your legs.” I tried it while mumbling to myself,
“Left leg forward; left arm backward. Right leg forward; right arm backward.” I
finally stopped because my arms and legs were flailing about directionless –
only my brain was still working, doing its mumbling. “Why did you stop?” asked
my wife. “Look,” I replied, “either legs or arms! You can’t have both.” I love
and respect my wife’s coordination and teaching skills dearly, but there is no
way I can do what she does. <br />
<br />
Some people have physical challenges that vary on a continuum of somewhat
extreme at one end to severely extreme at the other. Music therapists work with
such people every day. Movements of all kinds vary by increasing degrees from
what most of us take for granted. The challenges vary from one person to
another but include fingers and hands, legs and feet, brain and body, arms,
neck, lips, and more.</span></div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif";"></span></h4>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt;">Regardless
of the impediment’s location, it is a challenge for an MT to bridge the gap
from physical difficulty to accomplished music-making and muscular improvement.
Yet, it is exhilarating when the individual on the continuum can say, “I
couldn’t, but now I can.” There is a gap between what is and what could be.
Bridging this gap is one of the most important actions for an MT. Yet it
results in a moment of another more positive extreme: i.e., extreme joy and
gratification.<br />
<br />
Bridges in music therapy are called adaptive aids. Regarding those aids, the
staff at <a href="http://www.queens.edu/" target="_blank">Queens University</a>
of Charlotte, N.C., says:<br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif";">We are always looking for
maximum client benefit in our treatment plans. Good, quality adaptive equipment
opens new doors for our clients and for the treatment plan by making music even
more accessible. The field benefits anytime a broader client base is reached.
Examples of clients who can benefit from adaptive equipment include: clients
with any kind of physical limitation due to stroke, birth defect, orthopedic
injury, or impairment; clients with weakness in grasp strength or low muscle
tone; clients with tactile defensiveness who have difficulty holding objects;
and physically typical clients, such as someone with autism who might be
working on decision making, organization, and creativity.</span></i><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif";">Creating and Supplying Bridges</span></b><b><br />
</b><br />
Into this gap steps a woodworker – a woodworker who is not only constrained by
choreography, but also has a musical deficit. The woodworker’s wife says, “He
can’t find a beat, and he walks in circles when he tries to dance like he has
one foot nailed to the floor.” What could this woodworker and music therapists
possibly have in common? It certainly isn’t music. The answer is “the gap.”<br />
<br />
In 1987, I received my first invitation to enter the world of music. A young
lady came to my door with metal rods in her hand. It was Judy Pine, who is now
director of National General Music and vice president at <a href="http://www.westmusic.com/" target="_blank">West Music</a>, based in Coralville, Iowa.
Judy and her husband Lou were coming to our home for dinner, but she also had another
idea in mind. She said, “Ray I want you to make chime trees for West Music.” I
replied, “But Judy, I don’t know a thing about music.” <br />
<br />
“You don’t have to,” said Judy. “I know you do good woodworking and I want
those skills applied to products we are carrying in our new catalogue.”
Nervously I agreed, and more than 12,000 chime trees later, they are still in
the West Music catalogue, along with several other products that Judy and I
devised along the way.</span></div>

Hill of <a href="http://www.hugworks.org/" target="_blank">Hugworks</a>. They have a Therapeutic Music Entertainment program, that we will learn about.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Mission</span></b><b><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> Statement:</span></b><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span><i><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Hugworks provides healing experiences for the special needs of children of all ages through performing arts and media.</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;">Founded in 1981, Hugworks (originally Celebration Shop, Inc.) – a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization - is dedicated to providing emotional support and healing through Therapeutic Entertainment and Music Therapy. President & Founder, Rev. Jim Newton (an ordained United Methodist minister under special appointment to Hugworks by the Bishop of the Central Texas Conference) began by providing programs in a wide variety of settings with youth and young adults, primarily in churches where he led concerts, youth weeks, retreats, and camps. In 1983, Jim was impressed by the tremendous response of children, families and staff at Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. He had never sung for hospitalized children before, but was invited to do a program there by a church youth sponsor who had lost a child to cancer two years before. Jim had a powerful experience that day and immediately recognized that music could have a tremendous healing impact with children suffering from severe, chronic and life-threatening illnesses. With the blessing and support of the Board, he was soon spending full-time in the children’s healthcare arena. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;">Since the early ’80s, with the help of individual donations, foundation and corporate grants, and public sale of recordings, members of the Hugworks team have toured children’s hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and special medical camps. They have provided their songs of healing and hope for children and families with medical and emotional challenges throughout North America and a number of foreign countries. In 2004, Hugworks began providing Music Therapy in DFW area children’s hospitals. In late 2008, Hugworks began Music Therapy services at its newly renovated Hugworks Center in Hurst, TX.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;">In addition, over 130,000<span style="color: red;"> </span>audio cassettes, CDs and songbooks have been produced and distributed to supplement the live programs. Hugworks’ healing impact is multiplied through thousands of Music Therapists, Child Life Specialists, Music Teachers and other healthcare/education professionals who make use of these resources in their work to help ease the pain and fear of their clients/patients/students every day.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: list .75in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-size: 11pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">With the help of long-time composer and co-executive producer, Paul G. Hill, and producer Noel Paul Stookey (of "Peter, Paul & Mary"), the songs that Jim Newton and the Hugworks team have composed, collected and recorded have garnered a number of prestigious awards. Among these are:</span></div>

But what is it and how is it used in music therapy? Where did it come from? If we aren't doing evidence-based practice, then what are we doing? These and other questions will be the topic of the show today and I'll also offer some questions you can ask your music therapist, health professional or educator to find out about the evidence that supports the treatment or educational plan. I'll also talk about how to make your practice evidence-based.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/jharrismtbc/2011/06/03/evidenced-based-practice">Listen LIVE</a> at noon Eastern, 11 am Central, 10 am Mountain, 9 am Pacific.
