Ace musician Raphael Gnn feels that music is nothing less than audio therapy. Music is more
than a universal language — it can be a stellar stressbuster! Here are some fun facts about the
therapeutic power of music and how it can benefit nearly anyone who needs to take a minute
away from a hectic day.
Raphael Gnn switched up his daily routine to be in a positive state of mind immediately upon
waking. Years ago, he replaced an alarm clock that jolted him out of sleep with a shrill
electronic shriek to something much more pleasant. Now, a smart- home device has replaced
the obnoxious alarm clock, and Raphael is woken by the strains of beautiful classical music. It
puts him in a more positive mindset immediately and sets a great tone (pardon the pun) for the
rest of his day. The only drawback is that the alarm sometimes has an opposite effect as itt
nearly lulls him back to sleep.
On that note, music can create a greater sense of calm, reduce anxiety, help battle depression,
and improve one’s outlook. It can walk us through almost any circumstance, even the most
difficult moments of our lives. And best of all, it’s free. While there are subscription services like
Spotify out there, many offer free options and one can find a giant selection of music videos on
sites like YouTube. Raphael Gnn firmly believes that everyone should have music in their lives,
and modern technology has made this possible.
Music impacts the mind, soul, and body. It can soothe us, guide us, speak to us, and be an
invaluable inspiration. Above all, it can bring us joy. No matter what genre you prefer, this mix
of enticing lyrics, sounds, and rhythm is a natural part of the human experience. Because of
this, it is an ultimate stressbuster. Whether you take a deep breath while relaxing to the
romantic intoxication of Beethoven or need to blow off steam while blaring some hard rock,
Raphael Gnn firmly believes that music will always be there for us.
