Drills
At the heart of Harmonizer is our Drills.
Drills are your opportunities during the week to put the stuff we go through into practice. It’s so important you do them. Set a reminder on your phone, post notes on the fridge, on your amp or whatever you need to do to make it happen. We will bring up your drills at the start of each week.
Also, make the most of your account area when you login to the library. It’s filled with exercises, articles, interviews, opportunities, soundtracks and much more to make your Harmonizer journey the best and most transformational it can be.
Mood Diary
This week you will need to complete a mood diary.
Yes, keeping a diary is a bit old school, but it’s a really useful tool to record how you have been feeling and what you have been doing. It can be beneficial to reflect on experiences and emotions and it can help you to monitor which things have a positive impact on your mood as well as what things present as challenges.
Also, by doing this you may be able to see if there are certain times or days in the week which are more challenging. Keeping a diary can also help you take responsibility for improving your well-being and mood and can also be used long-term to track progress.
Before you go each week, we want to slot in a short mindfulness exercise. We will go into detail about what this is in future weeks but for now, give it a go please. All you need to do is sit back, close your eyes and relax. For now, try and be aware of when your mind wanders while you are listening to the audio, because we’re pretty sure it will! When it does, bring your attention back to the audio. As we say, we will build on this and explain mindfulness in more detail but this gets the ball rolling.
Being Grateful
After each mindfulness session, we will be asking you to think of one thing you are grateful for in your life. It can be absolutely anything. We will cover the benefits of gratitude later in the course, but for now, just think of something that you are thankful for. What are you grateful for? Write this down now.
Curtains!
Shows over for now! Lights are on and its time to go.
But last thing (promise!), is one final bit of housekeeping and a question to help us improve. Each week we will be doing a session summary.
This week we covered:
- We introduced Harmonizer and did some housekeeping
- We did a deep dive into music minds matter
- We looked at the relationship between the body and the brain
- We set 3 goals for the course that you want to achieve
- Understanding, Identifying & Labelling Emotions
- We looked at crisis management
- We did the same for emotional regulation
- Drills, mood diary and mindfulness
Remember to practice and refer back to what you’ve learnt today. Keep your mood diary completed for this week and we can pick this up at the next session.
See you in 7 days!
