how music benefits the brain

00:00:08

Music has been an important part of every human culture, both past and present. It can

00:00:14

play a part in brain development, learning, mood, and even your health. There used to be

00:00:20

a popular belief that music is processed in the right hemisphere of our brains, along

00:00:25

with art and other creative activities.

00:00:28

However recent findings show us that music is distributed throughout the brain.

00:00:34

Through studies of people with brain damage, we've seen patients who have lost the ability

00:00:38

to read a newspaper, but can still read music.

00:00:42

Or individuals who can play the piano, but lack motor coordination to button their own sweater.

00:00:49

Today we know that music listening and performance, engage nearly every area of the brain that

00:00:54

we have so far identified. One of the most common affects music has, is that it can alter

00:00:59

our mood and feelings, by stimulating the formation of certain brain chemicals. Film

00:01:05

directors use music to tell us how to feel about scenes that otherwise might be unclear,

00:01:11

or to elevate our feelings at particularly dramatic moments.

00:01:15

Think of a typical fight scene in an action film, it's the music that truly makes the

00:01:19

scene epic. Also our brains respond differently to happy and sad melodies.One study showed

00:01:27

that after hearing a short piece of sad music, participants were more likely to interpret

00:01:31

a neutral expression as sad.

00:01:34

And if the melody was happy, the neutral expression was perceived as a happy one. Now when you

00:01:41

listen to music you actually like, your brain releases a neurotransmitter called dopamine.

00:01:47

Dopamine is a chemical which causes a feeling of satisfaction.

00:01:51

When listening to your favorite part of the song you get the same sort of pleasure that

00:01:55

you experience when eating food, doing drugs or having sex.

00:02:00

So basically music can makes us feel good. And if you're having a particularly good day,

00:02:05

listening to some of your favorite upbeat music can actually amplify that feeling of

00:02:09

happiness. One interesting thing is that when someone is sad, they often reach for sad music

00:02:16

and they find that it helps them feel better. Now you might be thinking why would they do that?

00:02:22

Why wouldn't a sad person listen to happy music?

00:02:26

The reason is that when you're sad or depressed you usually feel misunderstood.

00:02:30

Like the people around you don't understand you.

00:02:33

If you would listen to happy music in this state, it would only contribute to this feeling

00:02:38

of detachment.

00:02:39

However if you put on the right piece of sad music you say to yourself: "Oh, that's how

00:02:44

I feel.

00:02:45

This musician understands me." So the sad music turns out to be soothing, unlike the happy

00:02:50

music when you're feeling down.

00:02:54

Another interesting aspect is how listening to music can affect our exercise regime. As

00:02:59

our body realizes we’re tired and wants to stop exercising, it sends signals to the

00:03:04

brain to stop for a break.

00:03:07

Listening to music competes for our brain’s attention, and can help us override those

00:03:11

signals of fatigue. A 2012 study, showed that cyclists who listened to music required 7%

00:03:19

less oxygen to do the same work as those who cycled in silence.So not only can we push

00:03:24

through the pain to exercise longer and harder, when we listen to music, but it can actually

00:03:29

help us to use our energy more efficiently.

00:03:33

In the last few decades, neuroscientists have made enormous breakthroughs in understanding

00:03:38

how our brains work, by monitoring them with instruments like fMRI.

00:03:43

So when researchers got the participants to listen to music, they saw multiple regions

00:03:48

light up.

00:03:50

But what's more interesting is that when they observed brains of musicians, while playing

00:03:54

an instrument, the whole brain lit up like sky with fireworks.

00:04:00

So while listening to music engages some interesting brain regions, playing music is the brain's

00:04:05

equivalent of a full body workout. Also through brain scans we have found that musicians have

00:04:12

different brains than non-musicians. People who play an instrument have bigger, better

00:04:17

connected, more sensitive brains. A study from 2008 showed that children who had at least

00:04:24

three years of instrumental music training, performed better than their non musical counterparts

00:04:29

on a variety of tests.

00:04:31

Mainly in auditory discrimination abilities and fine motor skills.But they also tested

00:04:37

better on vocabulary and nonverbal reasoning skills, which involve understanding and analyzing

00:04:43

visual information, such as identifying relationships, similarities and differences between shapes

00:04:49

and patterns.These two areas in particular are quite removed from musical training as

00:04:55

we imagine it, so it’s fascinating to see how learning to play an instrument can help

00:05:00

kids develop such a wide variety of important skills. It’s also never too late to start

00:05:06

learning an instrument. Seniors who play an instrument or sing with other people are more

00:05:12

resistant to cognitive and memory problems. The reason might be the creation of alternative

00:05:18

connections in the brain that could compensate for cognitive decline as we get older. So both

00:05:23

listening and creating music has it's own benefits. However music affects each brain

00:05:29

differently and someones music can be another persons noise. And researchers have found that

00:05:35

listening to music you like, increases blood flow to the brain more than listening to music

00:05:40

you don’t like. To draw a line, you’ll always get more benefits from listening and

00:05:45

making music, you actually like. Thank you for watching.

00:05:52

I hope you learned something new and became better than yesterday :)
