Plato believed music stirs the soul, affecting emotion & shaping character. Aristotle believed music evokes & purges emotion, regulating the human spirit. Turns out............those old guys were pretty smart.
OUR GOAL IS SIMPLE.
Brain Health is our Passion.
Music Connectivity is our Purpose.
Seniors feeling alone; particularly those with Parkinsons or Dementia - those are our people.
Our mission is to promote brain health & implement drug-free interventions. We stimulate thinking skills in those facing impairment, foster self-expression & give them a sense of connectivity to both themselves & those around them.
How? It’s more than just personalized music. We also offer an online cognitive coaching program. It emphasizes dual tasking & is offered online or in-home. The targeted curriculum stimulates all 5 areas of cognition - not just memory. In fact, clients often boost their cognitive scores in 10 simple sessions (2/week - 40 minutes each)
My heart is full of thanks to Alive Inside and Kelly Willenborg. Betty was singing, smiling and laughing to her headset music. I have not seen those emotions in year. Literally Betty came ALIVE INSIDE last night and I got to experience it with her. We are SO VERY BLESSED!
Kelly, these headsets are AMAZING! We received our 4 headsets today! We had one resident that once I put it on her, her eyes lit up and she started dancing immediately. Another resident was teary-eyed and had to tell me with excitement what songs she heard so far! Seriously, this is amazing and my heart is so full seeing this brighten their day!
Carol is often distracted & not able to focus on a visitor. The music provided her granddaughter the ability to connect in a positive manner. The focused interaction was around 15 min but the positive effect on her mood lasted 45 min after the visit!!!!
A BIG THANKS TO ALL OUR GENEROUS DONORS
We are a 501 (C) 3 agency supporting drug-free interventions for neuro disorders (Dementia, Parkinson's, etc). Through your donations we have been able to launch programming to bridge the gap in cognitive care in our community. You truly do make a difference for us, and we are extremely grateful!
