Relaxing Music

Music is all around us, It affects our mood so why not use it to our advantage. We receive most of our information via ears, constant sounds coming in and transmitting it all to our brains. This is why hearing the right type of music makes us feel happy and free and is also the reason why relaxing music can improve our body.

Benefits of Relaxing Music:

1. Reducing levels of stress - It has been shown that hearing relaxing music such as the soothing sound of nature can relieve a lot of stress. These sounds helps us disconnect from the real world as we only focus on the sound of nature rather than the everyday sounds that we hear i.e builders. Hearing relaxing music before going to bed highly increases the chance of sleep as our stress levels go down, not only will we get a better sleep out of it, but it will provide us with more energy and better brain function
2. Increase the levels of serotonin - Studies has shown that hearing relaxing music increases the number of serotonin in our bloodstream. Serotonin is known as the "happy" hormone, as it helps increase our sleep, mood and learning capacity.
3. Lowers Heart Rate - Just like how hearing rock and heavy metal increases our heart rate due to the loud music and bass. Hearing relaxing music calms down the heart, which is why you never hear any loud music in a hospital. Listening to this type of music regularly can help keep our blood pressure and heart rate low as well as keep a peaceful mindset.

Theses are only some of the many benefits of hearing relaxing music. I personally recommend putting it on during a massage session and while trying to sleep.
