Art in Cardioneurology

If we are talking about continuous communication between the brain and the heart, then the influence of art in cardiology is also indispensable. What are the experiences in the world with regard to the application of art in the rehabilitation of cardiac patients? How can art be applied as a method in the rehabilitation of cardiac patients? Can we inherit the application of some artistic methods not only in cardiovascular or neurological rehabilitation, but also expand it with some new, especially holistic methods, which in turn contain art in themselves. Chromotherapy has been a well-known treatment for centuries and has recently been rediscovered. The colors most commonly used (red, green, blue, orange, and yellow) stimulate the soul and psyche. The importance of chromotherapy was also pointed out by Dr. John Ott, who said, “Light is a food- like food - the wrong type will make us sick, and the right one will keep us healthy.” The existence of every living being depends on light. Scientific research has clearly shown that all matter, including every cell in our body, consists of energy and that every cell in the body emits light. Color flows through us, it is an active force and has a huge impact on our mind and body. In addition to allowing us to see, light also enters the body through our skin and regulates many vital functions of our body through neurotransmitters. Every cell, organ, muscle or nerve in the body has a certain level of vibration. Each color also has its own frequency and vibration. Therefore, light of certain colors can have a therapeutic function by keeping the organism in a state of biological balance. On the other hand, Music Therapy or melotherapy is a way of music therapy in which musical sound is used to achieve a better physical, spiritual, social or emotional state of a person, without targeted development of personal musical singing or playing skills. Music therapy is Music therapy is an officially recognized paramedical or holistic discipline.

Music therapy acts directly on the autonomic nervous system, is intended for everyone, non- basic about intelligence, reduces anxiety and stress, strengthens the mechanisms of coping with the disease. Music therapy, considered by some authors to be even a young medical discipline over the centuries, has used a variety of instruments to treat illness and revive the spirit. Pythagoras believed that music could significantly contribute to human health, and he called the process of healing music "purification". He was the first founder of a school that dealt with the study of the effect of music, ie rhythm, on human passions, and he called music that had a positive influence on man the "music of the spheres". He believed that with the help of music, both body and mind could be purified. That music has healing powers was also considered in ancient China. Music therapy as a form of expressive art therapy, which uses music to improve and maintain the physical, psychological and sociological well-being of an individual, includes a wide range of activities, such as listening to music, singing, playing a musical instrument, writing songs, etc. Modern evidence-based music therapy practice emphasizes the importance of the patient's choice of music that ensures the most effective treatment, and the application of music therapy is primarily aimed at calming, relieving and reducing stress and anxiety and improving mood. Systematic and targeted application of music is an effective psychological intervention whose effects are also reflected in physiological outcomes such as lowering blood pressure and heart rate. These effects are attributed to brain and autonomic nervous system activity, but the relationship between musical features and autonomic nervous system activity is not yet fully clear.
