Music can have wide-ranging effects on the brain, impacting everything from cognitive performance to stress levels.
Many people listen to music while working, exercising at the gym, or simply relaxing. But how does music affect your brain?
Cognitive performanceHow many times have you remembered the lyrics to a song, but couldn't recall what you did over the weekend? Music goes a lot further than just filling a void. In a 2008 study, published in the journal Perception and Motor Skills , researchers discovered that rhythm with or without musical accompaniment may be able to"facilitate recall of text", meaning listening to music could help us to remember pieces of information.
According to psychotherapist Jordan Vyas-Lee , co-founder of the Kove Clinic, a therapy clinic in London, England, listening to upbeat or happy music can help to light up neural networks that store positive and personal memories."This is the sort of information that gets blocked during bouts of depression and which needs unlocking to stimulate problem solving skills and adaptive, positive behavioral repertoires," Vyas-Lee told Live Science.
StressProlonged periods of stress can wreak havoc on your body. But just like yoga, meditation and exercise, experts say that listening to music can also lower physical and psychological stress.
