Among the Wildflowers: A Playlist To Celebrate the Blooms Of May!
Author: Julianna Cooper, Challenge America Music Therapist
What better way to celebrate our monthly CAVARTS theme of “May Flowers” than through song? 💐
Last month, we shared a bit about using music to “meet you where you are” through matching your mood or energy level, like a friend who hears and empathizes with you.
Another beautiful way we can use music is to celebrate! Music can meet us as a comfort when we are feeling low, and it can also be an amazing way to mark milestones, usher in new seasons, and add vibrancy to a special experience or season.
In that spirit, I’d like to encourage you to use music to celebrate a small (or big!) win this month!
Personally, I’m celebrating the reminder of newness, fresh starts, and growth in the flowers bursting forth this season. There are so many songs that make me feel celebratory, and I’m sure you can bring a few to mind, as well! Take note of what music, instruments, tempos, and songs make you feel like celebrating, and create a playlist– either by writing them down or compiling them on a music platform.
There are countless incredible songs, compositions, and musical works inspired by and proclaiming the beauty of blooming, so we’ve put together a playlist in celebration of May Flowers! 🌷
