Entertainment news story about music, therapy and drumming

            Percussion instruments can be made of anything outside of drums as you will see in this drumming circle on video. You do not need to be a professional drummer or need a key drum set. Watch to see what you can use as a music instrument and how music is a great form of cross-cultural communication. This is fitting when meeting people outside of your own culture. Where would we be without a world of art? Dr. Rose Borunda, chair, counselor education and professor describes how it is done and how the drum is close to the mother’s heartbeat. She also discusses the importance of incorporating music into education, counseling, psychology or mental health for unity and therapy.

           This is a real music video with a true story and entertainment. None of the players are professional. They are college university students in the counseling profession. This is an awesome multicultural activity for student organization and recreation. Educators, teachers, counselors, psychologist and practitioners of mental health should see this for practice and multicultural education. It is also useful if you are considering choosing a career in counseling, education, psychology, psychotherapy, mental health, or health and human services. It is both educational and entertaining.
