Singing 'rewires' damaged brain

I think most if not everyone enjoys a good song, ive heard that singing before a meal aids the digestive process, and now this article confirms yet another benefit of singing.

Lol Chris, i sing somewhat like an old crow with tonsilitis but i do enjoy and do feel the benefit. It does unfortunately damage the brains of those who hear it.

Singing can affect your energy and hence body, like chanting/mantras/sound & frequency therapy, but it depends on how you sing and breathe which is probably one reason why the divine scale has been changed and replaced.

I have known intuitively that sound, whether it be toning, singing, playing an instrument, chanting was somehow extremely important in healing. I knew this back in the early 80's, long before I discovered Solfeggio, sacred chanting & singing etc.

Last year I watched the change in palliative care patients living in a nursing home. Usually once a week, a music therapist would visit & sing, play her guitar & keyboard. The patients would get very involved, by singing, clapping their hands, tapping their feet & were disappointed when the hour was up.

Wow, what a change I saw in those people, confirming my own knowingness about the importance of sound. I have also noticed an ex partner who when he was depressed would pick up his guitar, play & start singing. This always brought about great change in his mood. He seemed to instinctively pick up the guitar, when his mood was low.

I have also watched children who were over-excited around bedtime, calm down, when listening to some soothing relaxing music.

I too experience the power of music when I'm feeling low.....I especially lean towards the Solfeggio sounds these days.

Japa meditation will also rewire your brain to have nice clean coherent thought patterns.

Here is where I learned it from
