InstruMental Health — Stony Plain
Music. Mental Health. No Pressure.
If you like music, good vibes, beats, or just want to find a new way to express what’s going on in your head — InstruMental Health is for you.
No auditions. No judgment. Just music, creativity, and a space where we can let the best of ourselves out!
What Is It, Really?
It’s a space where music becomes a way to:
- Express ourselves safely
- Make sense of emotions
- Connect with other people
- Build confidence
We use rhythm, sound, lyrics, and collaboration to explore things like connection, emotions, communication, stress, identity, and mental health — in ways that feel natural and low-pressure.
Do I Have to Be “Musical”?
Nope. Like… absolutely not.
You don’t need experience, skill, or even rhythm. This isn’t about being good at an instrument — it’s about being YOU. Everyone participates at their own comfort level.
What You’ll Actually Do
Depending on the session, you might:
- mess around with beats, sound, or instruments
- share music and lyrics that are meaningful to you
- write lyrics or create music as a group
- use music to tell stories or express emotions
- reflect, share (if you want), and build off each other’s ideas
- record what you create!
Why Music?
Because everyone can connect with music - whether it’s listening, playing, or sharing.
Music just hits different.
It can say things words can’t.
It helps calm your nervous system.
It connects people without forcing conversation.
Music lets you explore hard stuff in a way that feels safer — and honestly, way less awkward.
What You Can Take Away
- More confidence in your voice
- Better ways to express emotions (without bottling them up)
- Stronger connections with other people
- Tools to manage stress, overwhelm, or big feelings
- Knowing you’re not alone in what you’re feeling
Who’s Running It?
Sessions are led by trauma-informed mental health educators who are also professional musicians. They know music, they know mental health, and they know how to make spaces feel safe and chill.
InstruMental Health is about:
- expression over perfection
- connection over performance
- showing up as you are
Come make noise.
Come be quiet.
Come Connect.
Come figure things out.
Just come as you are.
