Do you know? Music is not just a source of entertainment as we often know.
Depending on the type of music we listen to, music can help us relax to relieve stress. Just imagine that you and your colleague just had a heated argument and you are feeling upset when neither side can find common ground. At such times, you can listen to a gentle ballad to help relax your mind and find the best solution to the problem you are facing. From the above example, we can see that music is not only beneficial to help you get rid of the stress in life, but it also helps you improve awareness through enhancing quality and job processing speed.
Besides, each state of the brain corresponds to a certain frequency. Therefore, we can choose a type of musical wave that is suitable for the state of the brain. If you’re feeling stressed, choose Alpha (8–12 Hz) music wave to calm your mind. If you need to stay awake, rearrange your thoughts, choose Theta music wave (4–8 Hz). But please note that you should only listen to music for 3-5 minutes to readjust your brain activity because listening for too long will easily cause side effects.
