Music For Better Health

Music has been around for thousands of years. It entertains us, energizes us during workouts, brings people together to celebrate, and comforts us when we are having difficult times. Research shows that music can have meaningful effects on physical and mental health.

One of music’s most well-known benefits is its ability to lower stress. Listening to calming music has been shown to decrease cortisol, our body’s primary stress hormone, while slowing our heart rate and breathing. Think about the times you listen to music throughout your day- maybe while you’re getting ready for work, or in the car during your commute, maybe at night time when you’re eating dinner. Listening to relaxing music 10-15 minutes can bring a sense of calm during your busy day.
