Through Facebook, I read another good article about the benefits of singing in a choir.
Here's a link to the article called "The Choral Cure": click here
Like I said on FB, we just do it because it feels great. You don't have to convince us.
Indeed, in the article it says "Singing is the best free drug going."
Here's the best part:
"Like walking, singing has always been taken for granted – it's just something people have always done," says lead author Professor Stephen Clift. "But just as walking is now prescribed, the benefits of singing for health are slowly being rediscovered by health practitioners."
Like walking, singing is something that everyone should be doing.
Welcome
Welcome to Renate's Baton. This blog is mostly for and about my choir, The York Region Community Choir.
But, While I'm holding the baton, I'm in charge. So, if I want to talk about other parts of my life, I will. :)
The choir itself is a community and I'm discovering that we have a lot in common with one another besides our love of music and singing.
When I go off on a tangent, there is always a crowd coming along. Join us!
