“Listening to music has a positive impact on our health, by helping us recover faster when we experience stress, and through the reduction of the stress hormone cortisol, to help us achieve a calm state or homeostasis.”

“Music can lift us out of depression or move us to tears- it’s a remedy, a tonic, orange juice for the ear. But for many of my neurological patients, music is even more--it can provide access, even when no medication can, to movement, to speech, to life. For them, music is not a luxury, but a necessity.”
--Oliver Sacks, neurology professor, best-selling author, and physician
“Imagination is tapping into the subconscious in a form of open play. That is why art or music therapy, which encourages a person to take up brushes and paint or an instrument, and just express themselves, is so powerful.”
--Phil ‘Philosofree’ Cheney, author of multiple books including Energizing Your Life and Brion and Freya
“Music can heal the wounds that medicine cannot touch.”
--Debasish Mrihda
“When words fail, music speaks.”
--Hans Christian Anderson, prominent fairy-tale author
