Listen to music that lets your soul flourish and sets it aflutter.

We come across music every day: in our cars, gyms, and our leisure. The music we listen to has lyrics, and those lyrics create imagery inside us, and that imagery and ideas live inside us.

It’s up to use which music, imagery, and ideas we consume because it affects our quality of life. In fact, music is a tool to enrich your life and improve your quality of life.

In this course, you’ll learn how to read into music lyrics and decipher whether the lyrics are well-written or not. You’ll also grow your taste for quality in music and art.

After all, the music you listen to affects your soul. Don’t allow commercial, corporate-made music erode your soul. Only feed your soul beautiful music that sets your soul aflutter.
