Inspired by the research work with the "Culture Palette" and the implementation of it in health care centres, schools and social centers, we developed the cultural health box - a popular scientifically tool box, to help people use cultural activities (such as music, dance, stillness, drama, film and pictures) for health preventation. It is written by well-known resarchers in the field of cultural health and is a rich material that is useful in self-care work for musicians. The box will be presented together with historical perspectives and other research work targeting music as prevention in health care.
