Use Music For Better Health






by Kay Banister


Music has been proven to benefit us in many ways including pain relief, smarter thinking, and fighting disease. I do not know about you but I think most people like some form of music. Heat disease, asthma, Alzheimer's, have been getting treated for years with music therapy, by certified therapist.

Music stimulates the release of pain masking Endorphin's in the brain. Research has shown that simply listening to 1 hour of music a day can ease pain by 20 percent. This can reduce the cost and need of prescription pain medicine.

Music can also be very beneficial when using guided imagery. This works by you focusing on a image to produce a specific feeling. Music can also strengthen the connection with an image.

Here is how to do it. Look around your house for a nice quiet spot to sit down and relax. Have a seat, shut your eyes, and elevate you feet. Find a song or set that will encourage the feeling you want.

Then you can sit back and think of the image, breathe deeply and focus. If you start to lose focus you can calmly listen to the music to regain your focus. Enjoy the music and relax for as long as you can after the music stops.

This will be beneficial to you as you start to do it regularly. The more you practice the better you will get and at some point you may not even need the music or setting. You will be able to naturally produce the emotions just my focusing your mind.

Do you have an insomnia problem? Listening to music improved people's sleep habit in as little as 4 weeks. The music therapy is called brain music therapy and produces extra melatonin which helps you sleep better.

Are you dealing with a bout of depression? Depression is very common to go through at some point in a persons life. Reduce your depression by listening to some form of classical music by twenty five percent. Music has also been found to lower blood pressure and ward off fatigue during exercise.
