“Lullabies: the Wisdom and Science of Soothing” by Mary Sue Reutebuch

Lullabies are commonly described as a universal musical genre. We carry lullabies across cultures and borders and make new ones along the way. They often echo our histories and tell personal stories. Within these songs we often express hopes, fears, and dreams. There is a growing body of research indicating lullabies need not stop with infants and children. We will explore the science and wisdom of keeping lullabies with us throughout our lives.
