Mary’s message today is pretty simple she wants everyone to take up a musical instrument. She wants you to know you would enjoy instrument playing. Music puts us in a higher vibration and playing one is so much fun! I luckily was exposed to the piano at early age by my mother and a music system at school before budget cutbacks so I had so many options growing up. I rarely refused any chance to learn a new instrument or sing in a choir. I loved learning them and singing so much. I had a difficult childhood and I didn’t know it at the time they helped me stay positive. I have loved playing music and singing over the years. I am now teaching Scott to play an instrument for his 50th birthday. He cannot believe how much fun it is too. You forget your problems of the day…

Hi Daniel thanks for linking to this interesting site. I do believe music,singing and playing an instrument can aid spiritual practise. I’d be interested to know more about how you learned to play the organ or any other instruments. Cheers.

Thanks Sue. I learnt to play first through spending a long time working out a few notes of songs I liked at the time, then much later, through jamming with others

When and if you feel able I think that would make an interesting topic for a blog, because it must take some tenacity to teach yourself an instrument. I like the idea of jamming for that too being something you do collectively and has significant meaning for your wellbeing. Mastering the guitar sufficiently well to sing-a-long-with-bob (not in person) is on my bucket list! S.M.

The tenacity came from the enthusiasm. I might write about jamming. I know a few guitarists who are Dylan fans, I could ask which songs (in their opinion) to start with

I started with Bob Dylan, and can recommend it. You should be careful though If incarcerated in the mental health system. I had my guitar confiscated for a while for singing ‘any day now, I shall be released’.
