The coronavirus recession only lasted 2 months, the shortest downturn in US history

The National Bureau of Economic Research wrote in an announcement on July 19 that the pandemic

recession

only lasted two months, from February 2020 to April 2020. That makes this the shortest recession in US history.

 

NBER added in its announcement that the previous shortest recession, between January 1980 and July 1980, was six months long.

 

NBER defines a recession usually as "a decline in economic activity that lasts more than a few months."

 

But the pandemic was a unusual situation.

 

The US is still recovering, and NBER notes that periods of expansion don't always mean robust economic activity.

 

"Economic activity is typically below normal in the early stages of an expansion, and it sometimes remains so well into the expansion," NBER wrote in its announcement.

This is How Modern Music Locks Us Into Predictive Brainwave States

 

Steven Halpern shares his journey creating healing music for the 21st century, based on ancient sound-healing principles.

 

*440 Hz vs 432 Hz

 

I'd like to discuss melody and harmony together as 'distraction factors' in evoking the relaxation response. For psychological responses, much has been written. We have been culturally conditioned (by Western classical and pop music) to respond to familiar patterns in predictable fashion, when we hear scale-based melodies or harmonic progressions. We are unconsciously forced to project into the future…where the music is going.

 

In live presentations, I always demonstrate this secret by singing a scale….and stopping on the seventh note. I do not complete the sequence with the eighth tone of the octave note. You can prove it to yourself right now:

 

Take a moment to imagine me singing a scale..(Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La- Ti………and notice that you are predictably holding your breath because I did not finish the pattern!

 

I coined the phrase 'scalus interruptus' to describe this phenomenon, and why you are left feeling 'future tense.' In other words, simply listening to 'ordinary music' CREATES stress and tension! https://youtu.be/-Ml8KiWH_1E
