Why Is Music Good for Your Health?
January 27, 2014
Slide 1 of 10
Scientific research has reported that music with a definitive beat and rhythm is able to stimulate brain waves to synchronize with the beat.
- Faster beats are shown to bring a sharper concentration and improved alertness.
- Slow tempos ease the brain’s wave and lead to a calm state.
- Additional research has shown that music’s ability to shift the brain waves’ activity levels allows the brain to shift speeds on its own, meaning the positive benefits to your brain last well after you have stopped listening to the music.
- These findings make it clear why it is now common to see positive results when playing music to sharpen the focus of children with ADD.
- Music is one of the few activities in life that utilizes the entire brain.
- Music can distract, provide control and cause people’s mind, breathing and heart rate to relax.

Holly Williams’ Guide to Nashville
May 21, 2013
I’d love to go to Nashville this Summer. Holly makes it seems like a dream. She always posts the best pictures and scrumptious food. She truly is an authentic southern gal.

My thoughts on GaGa’s new fragrance “Fame”
August 22, 2012
So the much-anticipated fragrance by Lady Gaga called “Fame”, came out today. It’s a black fluid that turns clear once it hits the air. It’s packaged in an egg-shaped container with gold hardware. In my opinion, much like Gaga’s music, video’s, and personae; it doesn’t really go together. You have this alien looking bottle with hard edges and black liquid, filled with a scent that resembles Children’s cherry flavored Tylenol. It’s just typical GaGa and even her non-musical efforts are becoming predictable. The fact is bubble gum wrapped in black and barbed-wire still tastes like bubble gum, time for something new, sister. Or how about, time for something authentic.
