Music and the Nervous System
Part 1 of the Sound Connections online training series ‘Music and the Nervous System and Approaches to working with children who have English as a Second Language’, in partnership with I Speak Music.

This session will cover:
- An overview of the Neurobiology of Safety
- An understanding of how the nervous system responds to music
- Practical tools to use music to help people feel safe
- Examples of how to use them in workshops and one on one lessons.
