Ep161: Connecting with Your Baby Through Song with Music Therapist Vered Benhorin
This is a really fun episode about music! I really do wish I had this information when I was pregnant. I know it feels natural for a lot of us to sing to our babies and it turns out there’s a reason for that. As our guest Vered Benhorin explains, there may well be some compelling science behind the benefits of music both before and after birth. A mother of three, Vered knows a thing or two (or three!) about birth and babies. Music was a powerful tool for her in parenthood and was central to her pre-mom life. Now a music therapist and psychotherapist, she has developed classes and techniques for parents to integrate the power of song into their babies lives. In this Episode, You’ll Learn About: -How Vered’s path shifted from aspiring rockstar to musical mom -How music helped her connect with her baby -Why it is so beneficial to sing to your baby during pregnancy -How songs can help in developing a routine -How to choose what songs to sing -How to reframe what makes a “good” singing voice -Why Vered recommends a labor playlist Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode161 Check out The Birth Preparation Course Register for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right Way Take a quick, fun labor pain quiz Our Sponsors: * Check out Ritual and get 25% off your first month! - https://ritual.com/DRNICOLE * Give Armoire a try and get up to 50% off your first month, that’s up to $125 OFF!
