E56: Season 3 - Singing to Spark Joy and Prevent Burnout with James Sills
In this episode of the Art of Balance podcast, host Jayne Morris delves into the therapeutic benefits of singing as a tool to combat burnout and enhance well-being. She is joined by James Sills, a musician, TEDx speaker, and the founder of Sofa Singers. James shares insights on how group singing can improve social, mental, and physical health, making it an effective antidote to burnout. He emphasises the importance of approaching singing as a process rather than a performance, thus reducing pressure and fostering a supportive environment.
The discussion touches upon the benefits of singing in terms of oxytocin release, stress reduction, and the deepening of communal bonds. James also provides practical advice for those looking to reclaim their voices and integrate singing into their wellness practices.
