There are many benefits of music. You can reduce your anxiety, feel more active, reduce stress with music. Sometimes doctors prescribe music as medicine to their patients. The right kind of music can work as tonic for you. Now, we are going to loo at some important health benefits of listening to music. So, let not waste any more time.

Music promotes memory and cognitive functions

As music promotes motivation, it can also help learning. In a 2014 study, students who learned a foreign language, Hungarian, had to speak or sing phrases in Hungarian. The singing group remembered sentences better. As music and singing have positive effects on mood and memory, a music therapy program, Music and Memory, has been devised for patients with dementia such as Alzheimer's.

Music helps to play sports

In a British study, participants had to listen to music while walking on a training mat, until exhaustion. Compared to people who did not listen to music, those who did this exercise in music were more enduring. Perhaps music was motivating. Another hypothesis is that music distracts us and prevents us from thinking about the effort. This is suggested by a small study of obese young people who were training on a carpet: being distracted by music allowed them to run longer.

That is why you should listen to music more often.
