Scientifically proven to reduce stress levels

Quite possibly, but is it the viewer's stress levels or the panda's that it's scientifically proven to reduce? ;-)

Didn't his mummy ever tell him to eat with his mouth closed?!

I have no idea. I'm fairly sure Pandas can't talk. But I know you will prove me wrong

Take care

LOL

The panda is perhaps a 'fun' example, but what does appear to be scientifically proven in that listening to natural sounds of any type can reduce stress.

Researchers say they’ve pinpointed a scientific explanation for why sounds from nature have such a restorative effect on our psyche: According to a new study, they physically alter the connections in our brains, reducing our body’s natural fight-or-flight instinct.

....new research, published in the journal Scientific Reports, is the first to use brain scans, heart-rate monitors, and behavioral experiments to suggest a physiological cause for these effects.

That presents me with a bit of a dilemma, because like you, I'm fairly sure pandas can't talk. So:

* if I prove you wrong, I'm fairly sure everything you've said is correct and so I haven't proved you wrong.

* if I don't prove you wrong, you're wrong about me proving you wrong, and so I have proved you wrong.

A 'heads you win, tails I lose' scenario! Unless of course pandas can talk... ;-)

I am so glad I wasn't holding a cup of tea as I read that. I think I have managed to ascertain I am wrong. I know my place

Amusing response nonetheless
