Music As Therapy

“I don’t always like to talk about it in great detail, but music saved my life literally. Writing songs and singing is so therapeutic for me.” — Mariah Carey
The sweet melody of a love song, the soothing sound of chords on the piano – music certainly has a way of touching the innermost corners of our souls. I don’t know about you, but all I need to make a day brighter is to turn on some happy tunes. I’m not a songwriter, but all the poetry I wrote back in my college days – which could actually be turned into songs – really helped me get through some rough times, so I definitely can relate to what Mariah Carey is saying here.
Music is definitely better than medicine!
