A review of scientific studies on music and health determined that listening to music has many benefits for your body and mind. In addition to reducing anxiety and helping many aspects of mental health, music can also boost your immune system. Research shows that listening to music can reduce anxiety, depression, blood pressure, and pain as well as improve sleep quality, mood, memory, increase some cognitive functions, enhance learning and concentration, and ward off the effects of brain aging.
Music is so good for your brain because it is one of the few activities that stimulate your whole brain. Because music is structural, mathematical, and architectural based on relationships between one note and the next, it’s a total brain workout. Some studies show that it can make you smarter. It may even help ward off the effects of brain aging.
