THE MUSIC-MOOD CONNECTION
Music affects the body and the brain in three ways simultaneously...
Music's rhythms affect your heartbeat. The heart tends to speed up and slow down to match the pace of the music that's playing. Rhythms also alter our brain waves and breathing patterns. Other types of music induce us to move our bodies. In addition to hearing music, we feel the vibrations of music and other sounds on our skin and in our bones. It is the impact of these vibrating sounds on the body that subtly alters our mood and many of our body functions--particularly blood pressure, pulse and body temperature.
Melodies stay in your head like a second language Music with strong, hummable melodies takes on a greater meaning--and affects your mood just by recalling them.
Researchers have found that whatever an individual's music preferences, music by Mozart--more than any other composer--invariably calms the listener's mind and body rhythms, improves spatial perception and promotes better communication of emotions, concepts and thoughts.
Background: The highly organized structure and many rhythms, melodies and high frequencies of Mozart?s music stimulate and charge the creative and motivational regions of the brain. However, you don't have to listen only to Mozart--or even classical music. Everything from Gregorian chant to New Age, jazz, big band, Latin, dance and rock compositions can produce different benefits.
Harmony affects your emotionshelping you to release painful or angry feelings or boost happy feelings.
Sing Whenever/Wherever You Can
Singing in the shower may be healing to your brain. Song has long been known to have healing qualities.
You can often tell that a person is in a good mood if they are humming or singing. Song is a true joy of
life, no matter how you sing. We have seen how the temperaments of our's change when we sing together.
We could be having a terrible day, but when we start singing, often we forget our cares and feel better.
Preschool and kindergarten teachers have known for a long time that children learn best through songs. They remember the material easier and it is easier to keep them engaged in the activity. So why do we stop singing in the second or third grade? Perhaps we should continue the singing into later grades.
Sing whenever and wherever you can. You may have to sing softly if your voice is like mine (). It will have a healing effect on your temporal lobes, and probably your limbic system as well.
