seeder Posted June 23, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Not exactly a ground breaking study is it? Its something thats been well known for years You can just as easy say: - Someone banging a saucepan with a handful of cutlery....raises BP.......however, the noise of someone arranging flowers....doesnt... Kinda obvious.... and yes I DO have high BP which I take meds for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperdyer Posted June 24, 2016 #18 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I wonder how many of the volunteers prefer classical music to classic rock/pop? If you don't like a particular type of music you either ignore it or it irritates you. Years ago, a woman I worked with thought I needed soothing so she played "soothing sea sounds" in my office. All if did was tick me off more than the jerks, I mean co-workers I was dealing with at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that lowered the cows blood pressure? They seemed to be enjoying it a bit too much. I was fully expecting to see hooves in the air as a cow went by body surfing in the crowd...
