Last Sunday at our Healing Music 101 class, we had an interesting comment from one of our class members. She commented that she believes that although our minds and bodies are inextricable connected, that we do sometimes get “disconnected.” That is when we begin to fall into a state of dis-ease or dis-comfort or even dys-function.
One of the interesting things that music does, she went on, is to instantaneously or spontaneously re-join the mind and the body. That is why a piece of music that has a powerful emotional component can move us to tears or to great joy or make us feel angry or uneasy…hmmm, such an interesting way to look at it! What do you think?
The subject of how music affects the mind-body-spirit is so huge that I don’t want the above post to be the end of anyone’s search. The use of music in healing, health and wellness dates back to the beginning of time and is recorded in many ancient writings.
