Singing Therapy

When I was in Bethlehem house retirement home, I was amazed how much singing helped the clients. I did a performance in the home which is in Kogarah, as part of my Leisure and Recreation Course. The residents enjoyed the performances and the resident pictured above was a particularly good singer. I sang country music for him and we had a hoot. It was important to show the other stroke survivors in the home that life can be joyful post stroke.

No matter how severe your stroke was, it's possible to bring joy into your life through simple activities like singing, dancing, participating or just watching.
