Esther: Why I decided to become a DJ in addition to my psychology degree

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. We kick this off with Esther Elmi, who embodies an enormous degree of energy with positivity, open-mindedness, curiosity, creativity and self-awareness. She holds not only a psychology degree, she also became a DJ. Today, she hosts her own radio show and leads DJ yoga sessions to connect sounds with mental well-being and to re-connect with yourself. 

How can being in the present moment help you with mental health issues? How does our brain processes music and audio? Why does she listen to local music while traveling? 

Here's some of Esther's advises: When travelling, listen to local authentic music. Make sure that your music and movements sink. Be conscious about how music influences your mental health, what you let into your brain, how it makes you feel. Have some moments of silence.
