Did you know that scientific studies have shown that music can actually alleviate stress. “Music has been shown to relieve stress and anxiety effectively, as well as their associated symptoms. If you want a quick, easy way to fight stress, then perhaps listening to your favorite soothing music on a regular basis could be part of the answer for you.”(Journal of Music Therapy)
If you are feeling overwhelmed from studying for an exam to relationship problems, taking a break and putting on your favorite song, will actually let you think clearer and allow you to relax. The music releases a certain type of endorphin in the brain, that stimulates the bodies hormones, to allow you to feel calm. Everyone has their own preference of music, and what they enjoy to listen to. So not every single song will allow you to feel relaxed, it has to be music you enjoy.
So when you are feeling stressed and or annoyed about a situation, homework, an upcoming exam or relationship problems, give yourself a few minutes to pop in your headphones and rock out to your favorite beat. This will allow you to focus, think clearer and most of all, de stress your body. Than you can go back to what you were doing, with a better mindset.
