Thank you for this article, music really does make a difference to the moods that we experience. I am using music to help me while meditating. I live with chronic pain and now when I go into theatre to have nerve blocks, (I need to remain awake while needles are being inserted in to my lower back region so that I can let surgeon know when he is close to offending nerve = PAIN) I have received permission to take my iPod in to theatre so that I can use music to assist my meditation practices, thus reducing pain levels. I ALS use music to assist me in falling off to sleep. When needing to ward off depressive emotions, I turn up the stereo and dance while doing chores.
I think that it is easy to say, for me, music is a significant part of my world and while it cannot cure pain or depression it is certainly a worthwhile tool in assisting in managing the difficult times while also helping in the celebration of life itself.
