Heal Your Body with Music

Music soothes the soul and can shift your mood in an instant. Whatever your musical tastes I'm sure you have a playlist for fitness or for fun. When you're happy, sad, or just cleaning the house. I bet you have a collection of oldies but goodies perfect for when you want to reminisce about a time when...In this week's Sun-day design I want you to heal your body with music. Give yourself some much needed TLC. Select a song that fills you and listen with intention. Really listen to the lyrics, the melodies, and the message you take away. Feel the vibrations of pain, joy, hope in the artist's voice, the instrument's strings or keys. See all the ways the music massages your heart. Harness the power in the music you love to nourish your body this week.

• Select one song that you moves you deeply, when you hear it world stands still.
  
• Now pick a time of day to play it, first thing in the morning, mid-day break or before bed.
• When you play that song sit or lay still, and turn off all other media. No TV, no talking, no moving.

Notice the details in the lyrics and sounds you hadn't recognized before. Listen to the song with all of your senses. As you feel the music you'll start to notice the area of your body that have been tense for so long. The more you recognize the tense areas of your body the more skilled you become at releasing that energy - with or without the music.  Repeat this activity every day this week and by day three you will be energized by the magic in the melodies. Leave a post and share your healing artist or song.
