Music holds a unique and profound place in our lives. It has the power to transform our minds and souls and can influence our mental, emotional, and physical health. A soothing playlist can help with sleep, increase motivation for exercise, encourage self-expression through singing and dancing, and connect those who attend live musical performances. For those learning to play an instrument, it can enhance cognitive abilities.
An instrument that I recently discovered is the steel tongue drum (handpan), an instrument that creates a beautiful sound and has no "wrong" notes. There are a few video resources below on the handpan, along with a lengthy crystal bowls video that may help with sleep.
If you have favorite resources that benefit your health. Please share them in the comments section or message me.
