Rhythmic Cognitive Restructuring

Please join us for our next Rhythm of Wellness workshop!

In this workshop, Dr. Cindi Glidden-Tracey will introduce the concepts and describe the methods of Rhythmic Restructuring.  She will then lead the participants in a demonstration covering three types of stress management techniques, all reinforced with percussive activities and polyrhythms. The techniques include mindful breathing, thought stopping with thought replacement, and entraining self-messages with matched cadence on a drum or with hands and feet. Cindi will lead participants in playing hand drums and using body percussion techniques to rhythmically reinforce written and spoken messages designed to focus and calm the person.
