Music has always been used as a way of relaxing or enjoying ourselves, as it can have an active effect on our brains.
When I was studying at college our lecturer always said try listening to music in the background, as it helps us relax and also allows us to to in more information.
I confess that in my teenage years, I was getting into classical music, and thought Mozart was very relaxing, but my father who was a Church Warden as well as being a miner thought I was a little odd, listening to this sort of music. However, after a few years, it grew in him and he too found classical music relaxing.
Since my brain went haywire with Dementia I have found certain types of music can have the wrong effect, especially if it is going fast, I think it is called fast tempo, or something like that.
This is because fast music does things to my brain, especially if I cannot sleep and then I listen to my IPod touch, which is loaded with all types of music, some relaxing and some lively.
I found that some music that I enjoy during the day has the wrong effect during the night, and can make the brain overactive and cause nightmares etc.
However, I do feel that music can have a very relaxing impact on those with any firm of Neurological illness as it's quite calming and lets you relax providing it's the right sort of music
Many years ago I was in Church Choir for a few years, but now I can't sing at all although I enjoy listening to choirs singing
