This article gives you an idea about music therapy and how it helps us cure most of the diseases. I have studied about music therapy in many sites and wanted to share this information in this article.
What is Music Therapy?
Music Therapy is the use of music and music related activities to modify ineffective learning patterns, to promote emotional, mental, social and physical growth and to develop non-musical goals.
Many people go through mental and physical stress everyday depending on their routine. How to get rid of this stress and keep ourselves healthy all the time? How many of you believe that music can cure diseases? Yes, this is true. Music is a form of medicine which gives relaxation when we feel tired or stressed. It has the power to cure some common diseases like asthma, headache, intestinal gas, cough, hypertension, backache, constipation, piles and many more diseases(I cannot list out all the diseases in this article).
Music can raise or lower your blood pressure, change the speed of your brain waves... it has even been suggested that the music you listen to could create new connections between brain cells and affect other cognitive activities.
There are different Raagas (The raga system is a method of organizing tunes based on certain natural principles) in indian music. Each Raaga has its own speciality in curing diseases. Malkauns, Madhuvanti, Hindol, Bhairavi, Sohani are some of the Raagas which cure diseases. We all have the tendency to use music for the background of other activities. |
