Sounds That Are Soothing?

I walked into work yesterday, thinking it would be just like any other day. I sat down at my desk and decided to plug my iPod into my computer's speakers to have some music playing. Before I could get to do that though, I heard some strange music being played from the computer next to me. All I could describe it as was magical elf music. Not the Christmas elf but like Lord of the Rings elf. I decided to let it be and started to work. The music really couldn't hurt anything... right?

A half hour later, I realized my head was starting to hurt. It wasn't a thinking headache or a sinus headache, so it had to be something different. I quickly turned the strange music off, and in about 5 minutes, my headache was gone. Coincidence? I think not. It was then that I found a packet beside computer saying what the music was.

Apparently you're supposed to listen to it to get a rejuvenated feeling. Well, it did the opposite for me. Also, you're not supposed to listen to the music while driving. I guess you could start to convulse, which would be a bad thing. So when I walked into the office today, I immediately turned the music off. Didn't want the strange music to give me another headache.
