Music

Mothers will listen to music for 30 minutes every day for 2 postpartum days. The type of music to be used in this study will be Turkish music . Turkish music will be preferred in the study because it is a part of the culture in which the study will be conducted. This type of music was preferred because it evokes feelings of happiness, laughter, joy, power, courage and heroism in the human soul. In deciding the type of music listened to in the study, expert opinion was taken from a faculty member teaching music therapy at a state university. During the music session, the mother will take a comfortable position on the sofa or bed. She will also be asked to close her eyes and imagine where she wants to be. She will also be asked to breathe slowly and deeply to regulate her breathing. The mother will be told to feel comfortable, to feel her body relax from head to toe while listening to music, to focus on the music and to free her thoughts.
