Can you get yourself in a routine/habit of listening to classical music regularly?

How Does The Brain Respond To Classical Music?

http://www.livestrong.com/article/15...assical-music/

Music of all varieties has been shown to generate health benefits for the mind and body. Listening to music can lower blood pressure, induce relaxation, reduce anxiety and even increase your libido. Some have asserted that music, particularly classical music, can boost cognitive function.
--------
Duke University's Dr. Kevin Labar says that classical music can improve your intellectual performance, but not by raising your IQ. Classical music can produce a calming effect by releasing pleasure-inducing dopamine and inhibiting the release of stress hormones, all of which generates a pleasant mood. "And inducing a pleasant mood," says Labar, "seems to clarify thinking."

Dr. Claudius Conrad frequently listens to Mozart in the operating room, but the surgeon says the music offers significant benefits to his patients as well. He conducted a study in 2007 in which he treated postoperative patients to Mozart sonatas. The patients responded with a reduced need for pain medication, lower blood pressure and lower levels of stress hormones, all of which are music therapy benefits that were demonstrated in other studies. But Conrad also found that the patients' brains released 50 percent more pituitary growth hormone, which reduces inflammation and promotes healing. His study was published in the December 2007 issue of "Critical Care Medicine."

Also, I once read a book about the importance of walking as it relates to mental/emotional healing - the author made the case that the repetitive, bilaterial motion of walking can greatly assist healthy emotional processing/release - but you have to pair the walking with the willingness to consciously engage/acknowledge/confront the challenging emotions that are affecting us... In other words just walking by itself won't have the same affect as walking AND allowing yourself to consciously access that which has been bothering you... Something to consider...
