Music to heal

Music is healing - remember listening to a nuclear physicists who had given up his work to become a full time musician playing the Indian Veena. He was able to qualify how sound vibrations can balance chakra energies... can calm and soothe and can be expressive of pain if you are able to play and instrument. I remember a German friend she had composed piano music as an expression of her grief at losing her daughter in an accident....her music became the words that she could not find to express herself..... was a very moving piece too... I used to have a copy of this on tape....not sure where it is now...
This post was stimulated by seeing a facebook friend had put a post up on how she was learning to play the piano on her cancer healing journey.
