Q & A with Sharon's son, George Episode 108. Special Guest: Carol Rosenstein from Music Mends Minds

An interview with Carol Rosenstein from Music Mends Minds https://www.togetherforsharon.com/car... My name is Carol Rosenstein and I am the Founder of Music Mends Minds. I’m originally from South Africa. I came to the United States in 1962 to study chiropractic, which led me to the psychology of mind-body medicine. As an educator for 25 years, I taught principles of mind-body medicine and clinical nutrition, plus heralding the philosophy that the body seeks to heal itself given the right circumstances. My life partner, Irwin Rosenstein, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s when he turned 70. This included dementia, which presented towards the end of his 15-year Parkinson’s journey. After 10 years of the Parkinson’s medication, frank hallucinations and extreme agitation became a side effect to the medication and Irwin’s dosage had to be severely reduced. I observed repeatedly, as Irwin was playing piano in our home, that the act of making music seemed to revive him, bringing him back consciously into the moment, forcing me to ask myself if I had given him a pill. Our personal neurologist, Dr. Jeff Bronstein, confirmed with me that the “new Irwin” was the result of the dramatic level of brain engagement while playing the piano, pushing natural dopamine into his bloodstream, as if I had given him a dose of his Parkinson’s medication. Together as his rock and life partner, I saw an opportunity to bring like-minded Parkinson’s souls to a jam session, allowing the music and socialization to magically lift their spirits and physical functions. This was the start of Music Mends Minds and the formation of the 5th Dementia flagship band. We caught the attention of the media and documentaries and television interviews followed. 3-Minute PSA Video by National Ad Council (2021)    • Carol | Ad Council Annual Dinner 2021   ‪@musicmendsmindsinc.4744‬ ‪@togetherforsharon‬ ‪@TheParkinsonsConnectionYouTube‬ Disclaimer for YouTube: The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are the speaker’s own and do not represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of Dr. George Ackerman or TogetherForSharon®.
