Have you ever heard a song and were suddenly transported back in time? A memory of a school dance, a sporting event, or the memory of that song you listened to on repeat after a break-up. Imagine watching a movie without music, would it have the same impact? No! Music is a universal tool a “language” and there are instruments that date back tens of thousands of years. It has been a part of life for so long and often an unrecognized source for personal and professional development.

In this beautiful and rich conversation, Sara Leila Sherman, who is a distinguished classical musician and educator, renowned for her work in making music accessible to young audiences through her children’s concert series, Mozart for Munchkins, joins us. We discuss the idea of treating music as you would diet or exercise— something that is integral to your well-being. Sara shares how music can be used as part of a mindfulness practice as well as a tool to develop better habits. You’ll hear how music is a way to foster connection with others and why it’s good to expand our musical interests. She is the co-author of “Resonant Minds: The Transformative Power of Music, One Note at a Time” which you’ll learn more about in this episode.
