Books From Your Therapist

Music & Mental Health with Jonah Bayer, LMHC

15 Aug 2025

Description

In this episode, we’re talking to Jonah Bayer, LMHC. Jonah is a writer, podcaster, musician and Licensed Mental Health Counselor. We talked to him about his career change from working in music journalism to becoming a therapist, which he wrote about in this great article. The books we discuss are The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle and Band People by Franz Nicolay. The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, is a spiritual self-help book that emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment to achieve inner peace and enlightenment. The book suggests that much of human suffering stems from dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, and that by focusing on the "now," one can transcend these negative emotions and connect with their true self.Band People offers a close look at the lives of working musicians who aren’t the center of their stage. Through interviews and incisive cultural critique, writer and musician Franz Nicolay provides a portrait of the musical middle class. Artists talk frankly about their careers and attitudes toward their craft, work environment, and group dynamics of being in a band.
