Noll (1983) noted the “shamanic journey” of the shaman’s “soul” that takes place during his visions. “Healer and psychopomp, the shaman is there because his soul can safely abandon his body and roam at enormous distances, can pass through the underworld and rise to the sky” (Noll, 1985). Shamanism is the earliest spiritual practice, dating hack 100,000 years (Peters, 1989). Humanity’s first profession is said to be the shaman/ healer/ psychotherapist (Peters, 1989) whose duties included other equally significant magic-religious responsibilities including the hunt and realm of the dead (Peters, 1989). Contact with the supernatural world may be the soul of shamanism (Shields, 1978). It is believed that shamanism is at least 20,000 years old and was mostly present in all traditional and gathering groups (Pollmeni et al., 2002). A number of anthropologists have considered the social role of the possessed priest or ‘shaman’, and the manner in which religious ecstasy may serve as the basis for a charismatic leader’s authority (Lewis, 2003).

In 1983, Spielberger and colleagues noted anxiety is mainly characterized by feelings of tension, apprehension, nervousness and worry about potential negative outcomes and events (Seinfeld et al., 2015). Anxiety disorders are related to increased blood pressure and heart rate (Seinfeld et al., 2015).

Shamanism is a cross-cultural phenomenon. Shamans were the first to research spiritual part in a practiced way and they used “embodiment” as well as “soul journey” skills (Peters, 1989). In 1999, Good and colleagues and in 2007, Ferrer noted music is known to decrease pain, anxiety and fear in several stressful states (Archana et al., 2016). Various experimental studies have showed that listening to music results in subjective, behavioral, and physiological alterations associated with stress and anxiety reduction (Seinfeld et al., 2015). In 2008, Nilsson reported music listening has been utilized as a means for relaxation and anxiety management in a wide range of settings, e.g., hospitals, dentist clinics, and work office. In 2003, Almerud and Petersson have noted that music stimulates the central nervous system to generate endorphins. Endorphins are endogenous morphine-like substances, which can reduce BP, HR, and respiratory rate and improve relaxation through alleviating fear and anxiety (Forooghy et al., 2015).
