Summary:

Today’s episode features my interview with Fiz Anthony, Profession singer and songwriter. Fiz is a dear friend of mine whose music is featured in the opening and closing credits of the Hope Strength Courage Podcast and even closer to my heart, when my daughter Celeste found out that her cancer had become terminal, Fiz wrote a special song just for her called Angel on a Stage. You can watch the video for it on my Youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdkE5wiZcvo

Last week, when I spoke with Dr Mark Setton about how to choose happiness habits to increase your daily wellbeing, we mentioned the importance of Flow – listening to, playing or dancing to music would all fall under the category of flow. That is exactly what Fiz is talking to us about in this week’s interview: the healing nature of music and how to bring more music into your child’s life.

What I loved about this interview is not only hearing about the work Fiz has done to share his music with children in hospital but also his many ideas to help parents bring healing music into the lives of their children.

I hope you will enjoy this interview as much as I did.

Best advice from Fiz Anthony:

  • In regard to the parents, first and foremost, I would say is understand who we are.  You’re a human being but you’re a soul having this human experience
  • We’re all here for one another. Whether people realize that or not, it’s true. We all learn from one another.
  • There’s a lot of energy in hospitals that are … it’s heavy energy. So, how can you lighten that up?  Bring in some balloons, some crafts, coloring books, whatever you can do, whatever phase your child is in.  If they can’t colour ….  think of creative ways to bring in, maybe some fun games. Make it more fun.
