Just to prove that newspapers are not completely full of bad news... there is a little snippet in today's Herald (not in the electronic version) which says that "songs that make our hearts soar can make them stronger too." Apparently even just listening to 'heart-warming' songs can be good for your heart, and this very non-aerobic form of exercise has a similar effect to that of recently-lauded medications, such as statins and ACE inhibitors.
I would just want to add that singing such songs yourself (including inspiring hymns) is even better.
It has long been known that singing has positive health benefits for everybody (except occasionally for those who may be in earshot??)

Hi Iain, you don't say who that is in the picture. I presume they are a very uplifting singer though. :-)
I have not identified the singer 'cos I didn't ask her permission to post the picture but you can ask Linsay. She will know exactly who it is and how fabulous a singer she is too. :-)
Ha ha! Say no more! :-)
