MUSIC AND ADDICTION CARE: A HARMONIOUS RELATIONSHIP Music has the power to heal in more ways than one. On a purely emotional level, the power of recorded sound to transform our mood and lift our spirits has been well documented. This effect transcends language and impacts us on a primal level. Patients at Recovery Unplugged achieve emotional release and catharsis through the writing, performance and recording processes, and also have the added satisfaction and empowerment that comes with finishing an artistic project. At the end of the program, patients are often amazed at how they were able to articulate their emotions through song. Patients leave with a custom-loaded MP3 player with their own music. These songs provide a 24/7 reminder that they are strong enough to overcome drug and alcohol addiction and create something truly special. If you or someone you care about is battling drug or alcohol addiction, call Recovery Unplugged today at (954) 703-1975. Music Makes the Difference""
