Moving from Anguish to Relief:
We
at The Dementia Whisperers are excited about our
innovative Mood Enhancement Series CDs and how they have
been proven to allow for many more meaningful moment for
you as well as those you are caring for. . They have
been designed with feeling triggers embedded in music
that was well-known to those who grew up in and were
young adults the 30s and 40s and 50s. The feeling
triggers will bring feelings to the surface and redirect
attitudes and behaviors . When your complete
communication – your body language, your facial
expression and your tone of voice are calm and serene
you will find it easier to redirect the dementia
challenged as you both listen and enjoy. These CD’s are
for you and the dementia challenged listening pleasure
,to help you experience more meaningful moments
together, and provide a sense of collaborative teamwork
throughout your care giving day.
The Mood Enhancement Series is categorized into two
sets-one for feeling modification and one for behavior
modification.
The
Feeling Modification Series contains the following
two CD’s:
 |
Happiness-promotes feelings of joy and delight
|
|
|
Feel
Good-promotes feelings of well-being and
contentment |
For
example, on the Happiness, one of the triggers describes
the fun of climbing a tree. You can use that brief
narrative to ask the person about their experience of
climbing a tree. By observing them, as the Mood
Enhancement CD is playing, you will find specific
triggers that bring back old emotions – they may have
lost the memory, but the emotions are still there. You
will find these useful feeling triggers that will aid
you in communication, and promote more cooperation.
The
Behavior Modification Series contains the following
four CD’s specific to common dementia behavior
challenges:
|
|
Home,
Sweet Home-promotes feelings of security and
safety

Eat,
Drink and Be Merry-promotes more normal feelings

|
|

Night Sweetheart –promotes feelings of calmness

I hope we
have addressed some of the issues that face you on a day
to day basis and have given you hope and a new strength
in your role as caregiver, moving you from anguish to
