It comes as no surprise to me at all, having been there and done that - anything that feels that good has to be good for you. I'm in the Solidarity Choir in Sydney and it gives me a real buzz to be raising my voice with others. Singing chorus songs, particularly with a large group, has the same effect. In fact ANY kind of singing seems to have a positive effect - even singing along in the car. So I think the results of this research are really just confirming what a lot of us already "knew".

It's been a good week for this kind of nice news. Earlier this week there was an article in one of our papers here, The Sydney Morning Herald about another one of my pleasures in life, wine. I posted the article in this thread. It all just confirms to me that a lot of the time our bodies are telling us what they need, if only we will listen.
