|      These are extraordinary 
      times. Sometimes you just wish you could escape from it 
      all. Well, you CAN'T! But you don't have to think about 
      it EVERY MINUTE! Take a break from worry, close that browser, shut down 
      your computer, put your Blueberry in a drawer, try a little "Music 
      Therapy".Music 
      Therapy is "the use of music and music related activities to 
      modify ineffective learning patterns, to promote emotional, mental, social 
      and physical growth and to develop non-musical goals." (musictherapy.com) 
      It's 
      actually an established healthcare profession, REALLY!  "Music 
      therapy interventions" can promote wellness, manage stress, alleviate 
      pain, enhance memory- wow, it's practically like a patent medicine, too 
      good to be true! And you don't need a prescription- get up, turn on your 
      radio or your stereo, take a break, you'll be glad you 
      did.
 OK, it won't 
      change the world, but you'll feel better, and when you come back online, 
      extend the positive benefits with a visit to efolkMusic. Our filtered 
      roster of exceptional musicians and their music is like a breath of fresh 
      air- good AND good for you.
