We'd love to hear from you about this episode.
Music is a fundamental attribute of our species, appearing in almost every culture throughout history. Whether or not we can keep tune or time, humans have continued to play, sing, and hum throughout the ages.
The human brain can distinguish between music and other sounds. Research shows that our nervous system reacts differently to music, with multiple studies suggesting that music may enhance human health and performance.
Listening to or making music affects the brain in ways that may help promote health, manage disease symptoms, reduce stress during illness, and foster a healing response even when patients are unconscious.
Music allows us to express our feelings and communicate our stories. It alters motivation levels, boosts memory and mood, and enhances athletic and cognitive performance.
Our brain requires a lot of computing to make sense of music, offering a form of "exercise" for select brain cells, allowing them to process information more efficiently and effectively.
Welcome to Episode Forty-Two of The Nature of Wellness Podcast.
In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Eddie Gammill. Eddie is a Senior Director at WTW, a Registered Nurse, a health and wellness educator, and an accomplished opera singer.
Eddie reflects on his incredible journey through healthcare and music and how picking up an ukulele during COVID rekindled his love for music while protecting his mental health.
Eddie shares the importance of fostering creativity, perseverance, passion, and happiness. He discusses the empowerment of being involved in the YouTube docuseries Freedom to Love, which showcases members of the LGTBQ+ community who choose to be authentic regardless of their adversities.
This conversation was music to our ears (pun very intended)
