My name is Kimberly Hankins, DMA, PD, RYT500, and I am a Violist and Trauma-Informed Yoga Breathwork Facilitator. I created this podcast to empower musicians to find their own path to healing, normalize talking about our struggles without shame, consider practical solutions, and discuss ways to improve music education and performance through musicians wellness. *TW: Normalizing discussions around musicians wellness struggles means that we often talk about challenging topics on this podcast, including but not limited to: mental health, disordered eating, physical health, and trauma. alignedmusician.substack.com Language: en Genres: Health & Fitness, Music Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |
