Music & Mindfulness Benefits
Impact of Music
The effects of music on the mind and the body have been well- studied with documented outcomes. Music has been associated with alleviating depression, anxiety, mood, emotional distress and perceived pain. Music triggers the release of several neurochemicals that play a role in brain function and mental health.
What is Mindfulness?
In recent years there has been an explosion of interest in Mindfulness. People have become interested in this growing science backed topic as a pathway to a better quality of life, encompassing greater emotional and mental wellbeing, increased happiness levels, reduced stress and better relationships. Mindfulness practices can provide this 'pathway' and this is increasingly borne out and validated by neuroscience. Additionally, mindfulness is a tool which alleviates many aspects of physical and psychological suffering, and is a preventative tool to prevent future recurrence.

"Mindfulness is simply a clear, non-judgmental awareness of your inner and outer worlds. In particular, it’s an awareness of the flow of experience in your inner world – an alert observing of your thoughts, emotions, body sensations, desires, memories, images, personality dynamics and attitudes." ~
Rick Hanson: (Neuroscientist)

Reach for familiar music, especially if it stems from the same time period that you are trying to recall. Listening to the Beatles might bring you back to the first moment you laid eyes on your spouse, for instance.

Mind & Music
Pay attention to how you react to different forms of music, and pick the kind that works for you. What helps one person concentrate might be distracting to someone else, and what helps one person unwind might make another person jumpy. ~ Hopkins Medicine
