ABOUT US
Within the Medicine of Music, we strive to broaden the knowledge of mental health and mental health disorders, as well as the remedial effects of music.
Research has shown that music helps the mind heal and it has also been documented to provide physical health benefits. The Medicine of Music hopes to take advantage of this in order to spread the knowledge of music's health benefits and make sure that music reaches those who need it most.
​
We hope to create and host many events, starting with our composition competition, in order to bring awareness to mental health and show how music can help people on the path to healing.
OUR GOAL
Our Society.
Our Vision.
Today, many of us have experienced firsthand the disconnect from each other and from ourselves. As technology becomes more commonplace in our modern society, it has created more physical disconnect, even while allowing a wider range of communication.
The lack of face-to-face connections, paired with the recent pandemic that isolated all of us, has taken a toll. According to the World Health Organization, since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, anxiety and depression prevalence have increased by 25% globally.
​
While we're still struggling to return to pre-pandemic life, it's important to bring awareness to the problems that so many people are still facing. The Medicine of Music will strive to achieve this goal, and our events are inspired by the essence of that idea.
Being able to spread music to those in need would help those who are facing mental health disorders take the first step.
