Music Medicine Basic Trainings

These basic trainings, online on demand, are a great first step in using music prescriptively for self-care to support mood mastery. Learn new language to describe music listening habits, to speak effectively with others about music choices from all genres.

The Music Medicine Boot Camp is the 4-hour core within upper level Music4Life® trainings (6 to 116 hours) to understand the core of making music work like medicine. This flagship course has been accredited by the Nevada State Board of Nursing since 1990. Dive in: start analyzing your music habits and how they work for – or against – you. You may not know you’re trapped in a Chronic Comfort Zone. You will make decisions along the way using our guidance system. (NOTE: you may not consider yourself a health professional, but you do care for your personal health, and this course is relatable)

 

This Music4Life® Music Medicine Advisor training teaches a collection of music medicine techniques designed to help people use music prescriptively for self-care and empower improvements in performance for others.
