“I was not as aware of how someone else’s music could negatively impact my thought process. I became more assertive with controlling the music. I now understand the importance of our auditory environment. I’m not as accepting of others’ preferences if it is opposite what I want. Now I’m more assertive in the car or home with housecleaners, etc. And I am more sensitive to the effects of music on my well being, knowing that I have choices. I didn’t understand or pay attention before attending the Music 4 Life Music Medicine class. “
