Hi Balanced Life Family,
Music has a powerful influence on our health. It can boost memory, mood, and endurance. It can reduce stress, and pain, and contributes to heart health. It depends on the kind of music you’re listening to that determines how it affects you. Yep! Music can be pretty powerful.
According to an article from Harvard Medical School, music can improve your memory. Music engages multiple parts of your brain that can help with memory. Whether you play an instrument or simply kick back and enjoy, your memory can reap benefits from music.
I also mentioned that music can boost your mood. Healthline reports research review showed that “listening to music, particularly classical combined with jazz, had a positive effect on depression symptoms”. It’s harder to remain depressed when your day includes beautiful music. Music helps to brighten your mood.
If you’re stressed out, put on some good gospel music, and if no one is around, don’t be afraid to sing along whether you have vocal skills or not, it makes you feel so much better. I listen to gospel music while doing chores at home and during my early morning workouts at the health club. It wakes me up, lifts my spirit, and gives me endurance while I exercise.
Harvard Health reports that music can help ease your recovery from a cardiac procedure, helps to get you back to normal after a heart attack or stroke, and even helps to lower your blood pressure a tad. That’s really good news.
So, family consider incorporating some good wholesome music into your busy day. I sincerely believe it will help you feel better because music is powerful.
