Is Music Good for Your Health?

By Genevieve Cunningham

Music is irreplaceable. Everyone loves that feeling that comes over them when their favorite song starts playing. You feel it in your body, mind, and soul. But music is more than something that soothes the ears and brings about fun memories. As it turns out, music may be incredibly beneficial to our overall health. And for the many music lovers out there, this is incredibly good news! If you're interested in improving your health with music, take a look at how to do it and what to expect. 

Music Can Be Motivating

One of the best things about music is that it can really make you feel motivated to move. Sometimes that's the entire point, especially when it comes to dance music. But other kinds of music can make your workout more intense. It can keep you feeling strong and motivated even when you would normally want to quit. Is the music the actual cause of the boost in health? No, it's the exercise. But without the motivational music, you might not stick with it to the end to see the final results. 

Music Can Be Calming

Another great thing about music is that it can be soothing. We all experience stress of all kinds. We feel worn down by work and life. We feel anxiety and pressure. But music can help calm the nerves, ease troubles in the mind, and improve your mental health. It's a way to lower stress, which then lowers heart rate, blood pressure, and improves both physical and mental well-being. Because of its effectiveness, some therapists and other healthcare professionals often use music to initiate this effect and make you feel more comfortable before various kinds of treatment.

Choose the Right Kind

The real key to making music improve your health is to choose the right kind. The type of music, the beat, the speed, the instruments, the words. If you choose music that is meant for anger, you'll likely feel angry. If you choose sad music, you may start to feel down. Instead, choose uplifting tunes that bring about good moods and positive feelings. Choose music that makes you want to move and get fit. Avoid music that brings your mood down or makes you feel down. Choosing the right music can literally change your health and your life for the better.
