The Virtual Mindfulness-Based Music and Songwriting Program (MBMS) is a research study opportunity for parents of children with intellectual/developmental disabilities. Parents participate in an 8-week online mindfulness-based music and songwriting program to reduce stress and promote well-being. No music or songwriting training is needed to participate in this study. Parents learn and apply mindfulness principles through music-based meditations and songwriting.
Selected song excerpts written by parents in the Mindful Songwriting research study. Songs are written with and performed by Kate Kelly, MT-BC.
