FMP - Evaluation

In reflecting on my major project, I recognise the need to improve my time management skills. Rushing through tasks due to poor planning has occasionally resulted in less polished outcomes. Moreover, my tendency to be overly critical of my work can hinder the creative process. Embracing the process more and acknowledging my strengths would be beneficial.

I found myself indecisive about the final outcome, which led to some delays. However, feedback from tutors and critical friends encouraged me to be more confident in my work, providing valuable perspectives. While my eventual outcome differed from initial ideas, exploring alternatives like poster zines proved enlightening.

Adapting to unexpected challenges remains an area for growth. I sometimes struggle when faced with changes or obstacles. Moving forward, I aim to foster a flexible mindset and approach challenges with a problem-solving attitude. Overall, addressing these areas of improvement will enhance both my creative process and final outcomes.

Relationship between music & sleep

26.04.24

Sleep statistics:

Approximately 30% to 40% of adults experience insomnia yearly.

Around 8.4% of adults use sleep medications regularly.

dsJesse Koskey's approach:

Advocates for better sleep among patients.

Focuses on behavioral changes over medication.

Incorporates "sleep hygiene" based on cognitive behavioral therapy.

Music for sleep:

Review findings by Koskey:

Music reduces insomnia severity and improves sleep quality.

Comparable to prescription sleep meds.

Minimal side effects, like the 'earworm effect.'

Entrainment effect:

Slow-tempo music synchronizes body with environment.

60 bpm music entrains parasympathetic nervous system.

Reduces heart rate and blood pressure.

Music preferences:

Slow tempo, regular rhythms, tranquil melodies preferred.

No specific genre necessary.

Listening methods:

Headphones or speakers are effective.

Duration varies, from 30 minutes to all night.

Music masks ambient noise, aids distraction, enhances sleep routine.

Research limitations:

Most studies focus on mild sleep problems.

Limited sample sizes.

Lack of double-blind studies due to participant awareness.

Sleep and health:

Poor sleep affects overall health.

Consult primary care provider if sleep troubles persist despite time allocation for sleep.

Music is an effective, inexpensive and safe method for treating insomnia. The only side effect might be an “earworm” — when a song gets stuc
