Affirmation for December 19, 2012: Healing Through Song

For me, singing sad songs often has a way of healing a situation. It gets the hurt out in the open into the light, out of the darkness.- Reba McEntireThought of the day:Music has the power to tap deep into our well of emotions. Listening to it can affect our moods, our perceptions, and even generate new behavioral patterns, as its rhythm and pitch affect our limbic system (the brain structures which support a variety of functions including emotion, behavior, and long term memory).
Sad songs can help us relate to others and the unfortunate situations that so many of us will encounter, while happy songs help us celebrate the greatest moments in life. Musical frequencies can actually entrain our brains to create the most effective state for healing. And for many of us, music offers aesthetic and intellectual pleasure, and inspiration, all on its own.Don’t forget to utilize the power of music in your healing strategy, today!TeamDS
