The Five Themes of Message Music

In this video, Dr. Clare Steffen discusses Message Music and promotes the idea that messages of healing can be found in all genres of music. Dr. Steffen presents The Wheel of Emotions (Plutchik, 2002 & 2011) in this brief discussion on emotion and music. The five themes of Message Music are: 1) love, 2) empowerment, 3) freedom, 4) forgiveness, and 5) acceptance. Examples of songs that fit these universal themes are considered with encouragement to consider other songs that connect to the wheel of emotions and the five themes of Message Music.
