Summary
This study tested whether listening to quartz crystal singing bowl music can improve mood, stress, and sleep in healthy young adults (ages 16-25). Participants were split into two groups: one listened to singing bowl music, the other did progressive muscle relaxation. Both groups used their assigned method online three times a week for four weeks, then weekly for another four weeks. The goal was to see if singing bowls work as well as a proven relaxation technique.
