For decades, people have instinctively turned to music for comfort, whether to find peace after heartbreak or motivation in the face of chaos. But according to Judith Pinkerton, founder and CEO of Music4Life®, favorite playlists might not always provide true healing.
“People say, ‘music makes them feel better,'” Pinkerton explains. “But what if the music we crave is actually reinforcing our pain?”
Pinkerton’s question challenges the easy assumptions surrounding music and well-being. As a certified music therapist and founder of Music4Life®, a platform that uses music therapy for health, she has spent decades exploring how specific elements of sound influence physiology and behavior.
