Music is woven into everyday life; in our headphones, our cars, TikTok, gaming, and the moments in between. But music is more than background noise. It shapes our identity, helps us feel connected, and can even support our mental health. In this episode, we explore how music helps us feel seen and understood, the creative side of making music (and why you don’t have to be “good” at it), why creativity can boost mood, slow down stress, and help express emotions, how music can become a coping tool during tough times, Aston’s experience as a musician, and what creativity means to him.  From emotional expression to grounding moments, music can be a skill we use without even realising it, and this episode dives into how and why it works. headspace resources: headspace – learn how to handle tough times headspace – what is anxiety and the effects on mental healthheadspace – tips for a healthy headspace headspace centres – find your local service headspace work & study – free support for work, study and career stress Check out towns: townstownstowns - Instagram towns - Spotify Watch our video podcast now on YouTube or via Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your favourite podcast platform. This episode was created by Ally (Senior Community Engagement Officer, headspace Adelaide), Aston (headspace sessions guest and lead singer of towns), Ben (headspace sessions co‑host), and Santi (headspace sessions co‑host). Led by headspace Adelaide, in partnership with headspace Marion, headspace Edinburgh North, headspace Onkaparinga, and Sonder.
