Have you ever stopped to think that many of the most important moments in our lives are accompanied by music? The happy and the sad, and especially the unforgettable. It seems that we listen to melodies even before we are born, and that they can later calm our loneliness during a stormy night, during a plane trip or during a cleaning day.
When do we say the word?Without even listening to a particular song! So, as soon as the first chords sound, our body naturally enters its rhythm, would you like to know what real power it has over us?Read on and you’ll learn a lot of interesting facts about music, this element that for some people is fundamental to living.
- The first human beings who populated the Earth communicated through sounds and silences.
- Did not say words about how they felt or what had happened.
- The intensity or tone used in their expressions was related to power.
- Strength.
- Wisdom.
- And even love.
It would be very difficult if we used sounds today instead of words like “Sorry?”, “Do I love you?”Either “I don’t think so, ” or at least it wouldn’t seem so natural. Gradually, the sounds turned into words, but certainly in our ancestral memories there were traces of these sounds.
The process that takes place in the brain when you perceive music is complex, and in this receiving of auditory information there are important individual differences.
The sound waves enter our ears and move towards the brain, just behind them, the lyrics of the song are analyzed by the language processing system, even in another language, the brain also analyzes each of the words heard.
The next step is really surprising and different for everyone, the areas of association begin to work tirelessly to keep various memories and feelings based on what we have stored in our memory.
What if we never listen to a song? Emotions are also stimulated because they are linked to something that we cannot always explain, for example, when we love the artist who composed the music, when it generates memories of a sound heard before, when it helps us recreate a situation or is the incentive that we need to relax or increase our energy.
The melodies are present in our day to day and according to our mood what we need is to choose a style adapted to the occasion, emotionally and psychologically the music can be the piece that we lack to mourn a love that we love, laugh at a beautiful day or to seek strength where we thought we would find nothing.
Sounds help some people who face a battle with a serious illness, show that a coma reacts to stimuli, or reassures a baby who doesn’t sleep well at night.
We chose one song for our wedding, another to work or study, another to take the subway, another to meditate or exercise, and there are even songs written for difficult times, such as telling when seeing a loved one again.
Music has the ability to balance our minds, generate happiness and well-being and can be a great way to express what’s happening to us (How many times have you heard a song and cried with anguish that squeezes your chest?)
As if that wasn’t all, the melodies still lead us to discover our interior, develop certain skills, stay awake, and can cure diseases such as high blood pressure, insomnia, anxiety, headaches and nervousness.
When we listen to music, our life is full of energy, we recommend that you choose a song that you like very much and enjoy it every day!Even better if it’s at full volume!
