Music is quick therapy, so just:

1. Turn up your device’s volume

2. Breathe in slowly and deeply, connecting with a painful experience from your past that has been hard for you to rise above.

5. Watch the video, then handwrite or type a letter to whomever was associated with this time. Tell them how the situation hurt you and explain why you have not been able to let it go.
