A Brief Intro to Music Therapy I 记音乐治疗简介线上培训(上)

I facilitated the first part of a two-part workshop on music therapy via Zoom with twenty-some Chinese participants on March 24th, 2021.

三月二十四日晚，我为二十余名华人心理义工提供了线上培训，共同学习探讨了音乐治疗的疗愈功能。

The highlight of the training is the call-and-response exercise, where each person create a rhythmic clapping pattern to represent and introduce themselves; upon hearing the rhythmic expression, their partner would mirror back the pattern, reflecting a visceral understanding of the person.

本次培训中最精彩的部分是“唱和”练习。在这个练习中，每个人创造属于自己的节奏，以鼓掌地形式来表达和介绍自己；TA们的同伴则回应以相同的节奏，表达发自内心的聆听与理解。

At the end of the training, I asked everyone to gift a song to someone they’ve worked with that night. Reading the “gifts” by everyone, the tune of togetherness and mutual appreciation resonated with me.

培训结束时，我请每个人讲自己心中的一首歌送给当晚合作过的一个人。看到大家发自内心的音乐，是对彼此的赞美与感激，也让我心受感动。

I am honoured to have spent the night this way.

我对能有这样一个夜晚而心存感激。
