I was watching something on U Tube and all the sudden a a post appeared on this topic. It as put on by an acute care for seniors with breathing and memory problems.
The post was from a legit care center and nothing was for sale at the end. The patients all had breathing problems that very degrative. The physical therapist said some recommended give all patients a harp had how to play.
Not one of the patients suffered and further decline in their breathing or memory problems. All seemed to love to make it sound a play a few notes. Again this was not a commercial to sell anything. Each looked forward to the group sessions.
Father time has taken about all of my outside hobbies like flying and baseball away and I started the harp to learn something and I always regretted not playing a musical instrument. I/M/O is it sent from above and I play at least two hours a day, The harmonica has gone a long way to replace some of the sports and outside outing like bird hunting and baseball. Better late than never and only when I no longer have a breath will my harps cease to make any noise. I has kept my lungs healthy and I feel only when you are not ready to get out of bed and do something you enjoy that is fun, you love to do, and get good mental exercise is age an excuse not to be happy.
