The Healing Rhythm of Singer Songwriter Lauren Monroe and Def Leppard Drummer Rick Allen
Manage episode 346441052 series 3378522
EPISODE 008: Singer, songwriter, and Energetic Medicine healer, Lauren Monroe and her husband, legendary Def Leppard drummer and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, Rick Allen, have a beautiful love story to tell. It was years after Rick’s tragic accident when he lost his left arm that he met Lauren while seeking out alternative techniques in therapeutic healing. It was her work as a massage therapist and energy healer that not only gave Rick a new sense of self, but launched their collaborative efforts playing and performing music. From there, Lauren and her band, including Rick on drums, have recorded some of the most compelling and thought-provoking music heard today. As a caring and compassionate couple, their mutual love of helping other people also led them to create Raven Drum Foundation, a non-profit organization that serves, educates, and empowers Veterans, first responders, and trauma survivors through innovative wellness-support programs. Both Lauren and Rick’s artistic efforts extend out to their love of creating mixed media art which is auctioned online to benefit their foundation and other healing programs. Join Dr. Jen Palladino in her conversation with Lauren and Rick as they talk about their love of music, writing, art, and their shared compassion to help heal those in need.
