We've started a therapeutic listening program with Josiah (http://www.vitalsounds.com/). At first he wouldn't tolerate the headphones because they are way too big and just fall off. Len figured out to put a headband around his head and now he loves his "music medicine." We have to wake him up 20 minutes earlier so we have enough time to get in a half-hour in the morning. He gets another half-hour in the evening and really looks forward to it. I'm so relieved as I thought it would be difficult to get him to do this program. He's very calm while the headphones are on. Other than that one hour of calmness, we haven't noticed any other changes. He is still really impulsive and physical. We can't figure out what to do with his meds either as we now have two "experiments" going on. He is pretty darn cute with the earphones on. He mostly swings during his sessions and looks at his favorite "lutheran prayerbooks!!"
