Mental Health Awareness with Sara Troy and her guest Dr Sean Botha, on air from April 16th
My PhD research into sound and “silence” meant analyzing music using deep listening practices and in the process, I created a new analysis model for musicians. Whilst doing this I created “The Listen Program” because I noticed how in-depth my own listening process became. Without realizing I was creating deep focus for my own neurodiverse brain. I had to do something with the work and wanted to make a difference. This is why I started to share the program with colleagues, family and students. The benefits of the program are great and different for everyone. The program uses every day sounds around us and it adapts itself to the needs of the individual. The individual gets to choose what they will listen to in a given moment. It means perception and psychoacoustics plays a big role in how the individual will feel at by the 7th step of the listening process. We are surrounded by sound, noise and quiet moments every day of our lives and we need to know how to navigate our life with the sounds around us. This is where the program becomes extremely helpful for people from all walks of life, not just those who are neurodiverse.

Sean is passionate about the relationship between sound & stillness, physics and communication. Sean worked in the health industry for 28 years during which he went back to his first love, music. His research has given him a deeper understanding of the fundamental processes of communication, specifically, listening and the need to help people realign with their own unique listening and process.
