Calming classical music to help you focus and set you up for the day ahead. Presented by broadcaster, author and counselling psychologist Dr Sian Williams.
Featuring warm harmonies from Emilie Mayer, Maurice Ravel, and Erich Korngold, Sian also takes time to notice the smaller things in nature while on a walk. Plus, Professor Catherine Loveday explores how music affects our ability to study - enhancement or distraction?
