Music is an art that could be more enlivening than mere entertainment. I used to listen to music for fun,you know the kind of melancholy music that makes you remember the old louring days when you went through some kind of pain or suffering. I also loved dancing, and I hardly knew dancing was also a healing art. You might never have considered music as a therapy, but let me tell you some basic facts about music.
Music is harmony. Yes it is. You listen to the chords, the words that are arranged in a way to evoke a particular sensation in you. They way sounds and silences blend in a musical piece is creates a space where harmony could be trove. Sounds have healing effects. A soft whisper has a different effect on you than the roar of a lion… you get an idea already about what I am talking about. There is that lulling music that recalls you to lots of things: the beautiful days that are gone, the hard period you might have traversed, the hilarity of successful events, the languor following loss. Those memories come up sometimes with the sounds associated with the events. Music could really help you attune to a reality that you are living in a particular period.
