The influence of music on a person
Every modern person listens to music every day. This could be an advertisement, a song on a TV show, a song on the radio, or a ringtone on your phone. There are a lot of musical styles and preferences differ, but people do not even realize that any melodies, in one way or another, affect their body.
How music affects the body
Since ancient times, music has been used to treat various diseases, restore the psychological state of people, relieve pain, and even for execution.
At the moment, many modern clinics consider music therapy to be one of the most effective ways to treat various diseases.
Scientists have shown that under the influence of music, brain waves can change, thereby sending impulses to other organs. Calm music has the same effect as spiritual practices: it makes the body and mind work harmoniously. While listening to a particular melody, the heart rate changes, adjusting to the beat. Accordingly, depending on the style of music, a person becomes either energetic or calms down.
According to anesthesiologists, some melodies neutralize the stress hormone and, no less effective than medications, affect the human body, reducing pain after surgery.
Immunologists, in turn, argue that the main cause of disease is a weakened immune system and a lack of oxygen in the blood. Just 15 minutes of listening to your favorite music significantly increases the production of interleukins (proteins that are involved in blood formation and platelet production).
Studies have shown that music can significantly improve concentration and visual memory in people who have undergone stroke.
But the effectiveness of music therapy largely depends on the correct choice of works. Depending on what worries a person, doctors select certain melodies.
Healthy music for the body
Music helps people get through life's hardships. Thanks to her, you can cheer up, get a boost of vivacity for the whole day and relax your mind and body after a hard day at work.
Doctors advise to start the day by listening to rhythmic cheerful music. This will allow you to tune in a positive mood and rapidly stride towards your goals. In the evening, it is recommended to set aside at least 5 minutes to listen to a calm melody that will help the body to calm down and tune in to a good sleep.
It is important to carefully choose a playlist for the day, since the physical and emotional state of a person directly depends on the selected compositions. For example:
- ethnic melodies and compositions by Mozart help to learn to cope with stress and control emotions;
- classical music improves metabolism, relieves nervousness and muscle tension;
- energetic and cheerful melodies help to increase working capacity, as well as cheer up and improve immunity;
- to lose weight faster, doctors recommend listening to orchestral music;
- to normalize blood pressure, you need to listen to Mendelssohn's Wedding March;
- the sound of the surf, rain, rustle of leaves, etc., help to rest the soul and completely relax.
Music affects the body, regardless of whether a person wants it or not. Therefore, it is very important to control this process and choose useful melodies that will not only improve the general condition of the body, but also help to concentrate and better perform the assigned tasks.
