Abstract:
The exact problem is that many leaders in the healthcare industry frequently do not recognize the value of sonic therapeutic intervention in promoting mental health in the 21st century. The researcher explored the lived experiences of six sonic therapeutic intervention (STI) and practitioners' lived experiences regarding STI facilitating the promotion of mental health. Semi-structured interviews of purposeful samples and documentary reviews constituted the data collection methods of the qualitative hermeneutic phenomenological study. Analysis of interview transcription generated five themes: sonic therapeutic intervention enabled anxiety de-escalation, compassion (for self and others), happiness, stress de-escalation, and burnout diminution. The itemized five themes facilitated the promotion of mental health. The implications for positive social change included enhanced mental healthcare and management in the post-COVID-19 era. If implemented, the study results can also prevent the escalation of mental health disorders. Keywords: anxiety de-escalation, compassion, happiness, sonic therapeutic intervention.
