Imagine a time when you are feeling utterly depressed, overwhelmed by stress, or going through tough circumstances. It feels as if the weight of the entire world has been placed on your shoulders. Many of us have experienced such emotions. When all hope seems lost, there is something that can change or even completely transform our state of mind: music.
