Effects of music therapy on depression compared with psychotherapy

This paper reports a study testing the effects of music on depression and compares them with the effects of psychotherapy. There are mainly three conventional treatments for depression: psychotherapy, pharmaceutical treatments, and electroconvulsive therapy. Because conventional treatment has proven to be poorly successful, new means of treatment must be found that might improve depression when used together with other therapies. A randomized controlled clinical trial was performed with a convenience sample of 79 patients aged 25–60 years with low- and medium-grade depression. The Zung Depression Scale was employed for selection purposes. Patients were randomly assigned to the music-therapy group (classical and baroque music) (n = 41), or the psychotherapy group based on conductive-behavioral therapy (n = 38). The music therapy was applied for 50 min a day, every day, for eight weeks. At the end, the music-therapy group had less depressive symptoms than the psychotherapy group, and this was proven to be statistically significant with the Friedman test.

Blind Belief In Authority Is The Greatest Enemy Of Truth

Blind Belief

Several stories this week carry home the importance of this message for those willing to look for themselves rather than listen to authority.

Whether it is global warming, vaccinations, chemtrails, Marxist ideology, GMOs are safe, left versus right, miseducation, ‘doctor knows best’, fluoridation prevents cavities, chemotherapy is the most effective therapy for cancer, the food pyramid, EMFs can’t hurt you, Roundup is safe, the Iraqis have weapons of mass destruction, the Afghanis caused 911, the list just goes on and on about the lies being foisted on us by “Authority”.What gets me is how short a memory most people have, they still vote them in next election! Sheesh!

Revealed: The Australian companies manipulating our weather

Jindalee_Operational_Radar_Network

Geoengineering, or weather manipulation, has now become commonly accepted as the deliberate intervention or large-scale manipulation of the climate system of Earth to counteract ‘global warming’ or to influence the environment.

Global climate is controlled by the amount of solar radiation received by Earth and also by the fate of this energy within the Earth system. That is, how much is absorbed by Earth’s surface and how much is reflected or reradiated back into space.

The reflectance of solar radiation is controlled by several mechanisms, including Earth’s surface albedo and cloud coverage and the presence in the atmosphere of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2).

To this notion, geoengineering aims to target these key areas, with two main underlying techniques responsible: direct carbon dioxide removal, such as cloud seeding, and solar radiation management that aims to cool the planet by reflecting more sunlight.

Boy dies days after doctors ‘ignored’ sepsis signs and told parents ‘we’re the professionals’

Jack Sands

An inquest heard his parents Gemma and John warned doctors after researching the symptoms of sepsis online but were told: “We’re the professionals. We know what we’re doing.”

But the 23-month-old, from Goole, East Yorks, tragically passed away on July 17 last year – just days after the surgery at Leeds General Infirmary.

Brain surgeon Paul Chumas told the inquest: “I hope one of the lessons learned is that we should listen to parents because they are the specialists in the care of their children.”

Tom: Always do your own research! The Medical professionals are not perfect, they do not know it all. To believe they do jeaopardises the lives of you and your loved ones. Remember, the third leading cause of death in the US at present is iatrogenic (caused by medical staff) illness. Where’s the national emergency over that one? Oh, sorry, no pharmaceutical company makes political donations to sell more vaccines against that.

Pharmaceutical Companies & Buying Immunity

Gray-Wm-Congressman

Most people are unaware of the EXTREME DANGER posed by the Pharmaceutical Industry and their effort to force vaccines on the entire population by law and at the same time to exempt themselves from any liability. In 1987, Democrat William Herbert Gray sponsored H.R.3545 – Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987. Stuffed in this act was the amendment to exempt the Pharmaceutical Industry from all liability for killing children with even untested vaccines. This is the way corruption flourishes in Washington. It is a major reform we desperately need. They can stick in a bill something that has absolutely nothing to do with the purpose of the bill and the law is thereby changed and it is bought and paid for against the people.
