I’m completely blind, autistic and have complex PTSD. Music therapy is such a blessing. I’ve always had such a love for music. I also enjoy deep breathing. It’s very calming during stressful moments. My music therapist will put on a relaxing song that I love, she’ll let me stim with my sensory items, and she’ll even let me stim and play with percussion instruments if I want to.

Please make new videos

Your sound is incredible amazing! Thanks so much! I felt God in it! You are blessed!

Thank u.

Finding Freedom. As an adult who is completely blind and on the autism spectrum, I strive each and every day to find my freedom. Especially through music. It’s great to be your true authentic self, and not listen to the judgment from others or the judgment from yourself. If any judgment is put upon you to hide your true self, it’s good to take a deep breath and say, “no. This is what I need. I know what I need, it’s ok for me to express myself. I’m allowed to express myself in my own way.” I’m learning that there is no right or wrong way.

So relaxing 🎵 🎶 ✨️ great job 👏👏❤❤

Beautiful! I do listen to classical music that’s more soothing and relaxing, particularly with the strings and the violin and the cello and the piano as well. Especially during the winter because it’s like the music of hibernation and sleep during the cold freezing winter outside.

I wish I had this as a kid. I'm happy she is getting the help she needs <3

I love how you highlighted the ways music therapy promotes relaxation and healing! While I'm not a music therapist myself, I thought I'd add a few other benefits to the conversation. A skilled music therapist can often do an even better job than a regular teacher when it comes to teaching instruments. Plus, music therapists are great at helping students meet the goals outlined in their IEPs. Music can be such a powerful tool for helping kids develop all kinds of skills. It’s also incredibly energizing for children with disabilities, helping them engage in unique ways.

My mother is dy1ng, I have no family, I'm in a dangerous place, I have a certain degree of autism, I have PTSD, anxiety, depression, I don't know what to do. The people where I live made my mother sick, i need help

This is so cute. I have a nonverbal child with Williams syndrome and was wondering what music therapy even was ❤

Does music help kids to heal from autism , or it just help them to relax for a little but not forever?

Does the boy now is ok ?

I know the video is old. But it's nice to watching the nice work.

Thanks, Ryan. I have a son with autism and I really appreciate your videos.

I could feel myself calming down as I watched. I'm about to start a new job helping an autistic student who has music therapy so I'm excited to see it happen. Watching your videos helps me to know what to expect.

I may be wrong, but your face is in a shade, her is in a light, as someone who is higlx sensitive to this stimuly, it might be better to use more of a dim and lower lights. But I cannot tell, maybe it is just the shade of the wall.

Hi my Name is Kim Taylor I’m born with down syndrome and I need help

Only this morning, I heard your music for the first time ever. In the last few hours I've been wrapping myself with it, like a lovely, comfy blanket. I feel safe, I feel held, I feel met. Thank you.

I needed this

Beautiful!

This video came on my feed a few years ago and stayed with me, the deep level of connection through the rhythm- so much so, that I have been using structuring the environment through rhythm ( tactile, auditory) when working with autistic children and children with PMLD, and I witness true magic happen: connection, a relationship of trust forming, and them feeling safer and more receptive to the environment. I have passed this link on to many of my colleagues- although we are not music therapists as such, the "aha" moments are here

💚

Very SOOTHING 😊

ABSOLUTELY 💯 BEAUTIFUL 😍

This brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful gift to share with the world. Thank you Ryan for sharing and educating others on how to connect and build relationships with our children.

heaven on Earth 🌳🌺🌿

sweet 🥰

I subscribed to your channel back in 2015 i think. I havent kept up for a long time now but I'm working on finding what inspires me again. Going back to trust my younger self and finding my old subscriptuons. Thank you for posting! I think I came across you when I was in pursuit of a music therapy degree but I ended up in performance.

Very nice and want to see long play version 1-2 hour music.

Dude,I didn't even finish it. It knocked me out for 28 minutes!

Very peaceful 😌 also, if you don’t recognize me, this is my new account that I recently created because I had to hide my other channel because of how much harassment I’ve been facing so it’s me Jimmy 06 the one I’ve commented on your video before when I was saying that when I was suffering from depression and social anxiety, it helped soothe me

Did you make up the song as you went? How does he know what to say did you prompt him before hand?

I LOVE this, hope to be a music therapist like you in a couple years, in school for my masters right now. Your work is inspiring, invigorating, and replenishing, thank you for sharing. :)

My nephew, who is two years old shares my birthday and is the light of my life is autistic. He has been diagnosed with communication disorder. He is going to therapy. Please pray for him. We are working very hard trying to make life better for him but some days it feels like we take one step forward and two steps back. I just wanted to share with all of here because you know what it's like.
