Abstract

Raga todi, an Indian classical music raga is emerging as a therapeutic approach in mental health and well being. This study aims to assess the relationship of raga todi and state anxiety at the time of novel coronavirus spread across the globe. 30 young female adults of age 20–28 years were randomly assigned to experimental group and control group of 15 participants each to which a pre and post test of State Anxiety test of STAI-A was administered. Results stated that state anxiety is negatively correlated to the listening of raga todi. Thus, listening to raga todi could be useful in reducing the state anxiety level provoked by a stressful life event like the lethal coronavirus pandemic.
