Dear Ashintosh fans (and music lovers š§),
Studies have shown that music has many cognitive benefits and can improve your mood. It can also improve blood flow in ways similar to statins, lower your levels of stress-related hormones like cortisol and ease pain (TIME, 2018).
In light of Ashintosh, QMO, and QMJās recent performance postponements, The Ashintosh Foundation and Queensland Medical Jazz are proud to present the first socially distant friendly āLivestream PB & J Sessionsā (Play Beats & Jam) š¤š¹šÆ!
You (the online community) can nominate a song for our Ashintosh Band to play for you. And the best part is that itās all live and online so you can watch us jam from home. In return, weād really appreciate any and all donations to the Ashintosh Foundation š».
Your funds would help support our endeavours and keep the Ashintosh Foundation running in this new landscape. Weāre working hard behind the scenes to develop some online initiatives to support our programs – watch this space! Feel free to visit our website (www.ashintosh.org.au) or our Facebook Page to find our more! We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting us during this time.
We hope that through an afternoon of music, we can bring the medical student community a little bit closer together.
Peace, love, and teddies š§ø
The Ashintosh Foundation and Queensland Medical Jazz
