A NICE THERAPICAL EFFECT: MUSIC
Remember yourself when you’re
listening to music. How do you feel when you listen to a lively music or an
emotional music? Does it shape the way you feel? These two situations actually
show how big the effect of music is on people. Also, the scientific experiments
indicate that music has a great deal of effect on mankind. To illustrate, a scientific
research has shown that music has an effect even on the pace of our heartbeat
and it also ordinates our metabolism. Therefore, we may reach to the conclusion
that in order to feel healthy and energetic, we should change the types of
music we listen. In other words, if we want to get relaxed, we should try listening
to vivid songs like pop or R&B. Also, when we are in a bad mood, listening
to slow and emotional musics makes us feel worse.
In addition, the effect of music
on people has been used by some people to help people improve or maintain their
health. Also,in history music has been related to psychology and used with
psychology. For example, Apollo was the god of music and medicine in history.
Also, the famous philosopher, Plato said that music affected the emotions and
could influence the character of an individual. Likewise, Aristotle tought that
music affects the soul and described music as a force that purified the
emotions. Moreover, as early as 400 B.C., Hippocrates, played music for his
mental patients. In the thirteenth century, Arab hospitals contained
music-rooms for the benefit of the patients. Similarly, in the United States,
Native American medicine men often employed chants and dances as a method of
healing patients.
So, how is music able to do this
although it is not alive like a humanbeing? The answer is again in the
researches. They also show that the neurons in human brain is affected by the
sound waves of the music that a person listens to. That is, the region, called
the nucleus accumbens, determines how much we value the song. If we love the
song, our brain sends some messages that has an effect even on our eyes.
Therefore, we can reach to the conclusion that we need to pay attention to what
we listen due to the effect of music on our health.
All in all, if a person pays
attention to his/her health, s/he should also pay attention to even what s/he
listens. That’s why they can harm their bodies if they listen to a type of
music that has a bad effect on his/her body.
