I am my worst critic!
I just spent a weekend sick as a dog because I am so hard on myself. I really need to learn to figure out how to manage my stress in new ways, because my body WILL take over if left too long without some release.
My Senior Seminar research project is about using Music Therapy with Children that have Autism. Since April is Autism Awareness Month, here is a little reminder. These kids learn differently, but they can still learn. If you know of someone who is affected by an Autism Spectrum Disorder, see if they receive any kind of Music Therapy!
The quote I like the most is:
Only 31 more days until Graduation! Yep, I'm gonna make it...I think!
My daughter has Asperger's. When she was 3 we put her in a song and dance performance group. It was one of the few times she interacted well. That only lasted one season, but when she was 6 we started her in dance and put her in children's choir. Having a structured way to interact with others and learning how to perform as a team member really helped her learn about personal space and getting along with others. She just returned from a dance competition where she performed a solo in front of a few 100 folk. If we had just let her stay in her own world, she wouldn't be the successful 14 year old that she is today.
ReplyDeleteI remember you telling me about your daughter, and thought of her while I was writing this paper! What a gift you have given her with dance!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing project! Sorry you had such a rough weekend!
ReplyDeleteKnow that I'm always here praying!
Psalms 116:3-5 ...I found trouble and sorrow. Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
