Music is a universal language that unites people and apparently also makes us healthier. Since starting in professional practice, music has always been an essential element in my consulting rooms. It just made sense to create a more relaxing environment, away from the fast pace of city life, which will help you to get better faster. Many research studies are now also showing the benefits of music. One study found that listening to music while exercising improved the function of the brain. Another study found that "joyful music has a healthy effect on blood vessel function." And finally, a study of the elderly with sleep problems "reported a 35 percent improvement after they started listening to 45 minutes of soft music before bedtime." So whether it's in the car, while you're exercising, or part of your bedtime routine, make sure you're making music an integral part of your life.
