@hopeful33250 Teresa, this is a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing it. I agree about the power of music to heal and it was a big part of helping me stay calm when confronting my fears of surgery. Using music and slow deep breathing in time with the music, I learned to lower my blood pressure and relax. Art and music are related this way and have the same healing power. Music can always help my mind escape when it gets trapped in worrying or if I'm upset. It helps me work though things and feel comfort at the same time, and retrains my brain not to be reactive about things beyond my control. What I can do is find myself by getting lost in the music.
