51: How To Drum It Out: Drum Therapy and Stress Management with Dori Staehle

Today I’m talking to Dori Staehle, the only certified drum therapist in North Carolina, about how to use drum therapy for healing. She explains how she uses drum therapy with kids who struggle with focus and concentration, and even to improve her own focus.

Dori first played drums in a church rock band, and while she played in the band for 13 years, she didn’t discover the healing power of drumming until later. While tutoring kids with ADHD, Dori realized that she could apply her drumming technique she created to help lower anxiety.

 Listen in to learn how she found out how Dori discovered how to use drums for healing, how Dori uses her drumming technique to help others, and how clearing out your personal energy results in clearing out your space.
