The Best Music for Relaxation

12/11/2015

0 Comments

 
When you’re feeling stressed, nothing is more relaxing than retreating to a quiet room and listening to the sounds of soft music. So effective is the power of music to transform the mood that an entire therapy has arisen around the concept of music for relaxation known as music therapy. The concept of music therapy centers around the idea that music can be used to enhance the health of people who suffer from mental or physical disorders. Even some hospitals and medical clinics have adopted a music therapy program as a way to make their patients feel better.

Studies have shown that music can alter brain wave patterns as well as heart rate, breathing rate, and blood pressure. No wonder music for stress and relaxation is believed to be so effective. But what type of music is best? Do certain types of music work better than others when it comes to stress relief?

What’s the Best Type of Music for Stress and Relaxation?

It’s obvious if you want to relax the best songs for relaxation won’t be hard rock tunes or fast paced dance music. Fast paced music can actually increase the heart rate and blood pressure and make relaxation more difficult. This type of music is more suitable for raising energy levels when you’re feeling tired and unmotivated. If you want to relax and de-stress, choose tunes that will slow the heart rate, breathing pattern, and reduce blood pressure levels.

I recommend that you listen to relaxation music mixed with nature sounds as  this music tends to give the listener a deep experience of calmness and serenity. If you choose this method, then the following album is an excellent choice: Best Of Meditation With Music & Nature

Songs for Relaxation: The Power of the Classics

One of the best types of music to listen to for stress and relaxation is classical music. Studies have shown that when people listen to slow, classical melodies, their heart rate and breathing synchronizes with the pace of the music. Brain wave changes also occur that alter neurotransmitter levels leading to relaxation and a reduction in stress levels. Although slow, classical music has a proven record for relieving stress, new age music and soft jazz can have a similar effect. The key is to select slow tunes that will encourage the heart and breathing rate to adjust downwards to meet the tempo of the music.

The following album collects a large number of well-known classical titles performed by orchestras and ensembles from around the world. The music provides a peaceful background for activities that do or do not require concentration, or it can be a focal point for a more meditative state: Classical Music for Relaxation

Songs for Relaxation: Create Your Own Personal Library


To enhance the effects of music for stress and relaxation, be sure to select tunes that you like. If classical music isn’t your preference, choose another type of slow music to help your mind and body unwind. Your brain will respond more positively to sounds it interprets as pleasing. Try creating your own personal library of songs for relaxation and listen to it after a long, hard day. Preview a variety of songs and keep a record of how each one makes you feel to determine if it’s a good candidate for inclusion in your relaxation music library.

The best music for stress and relaxation may be different for you than for someone else. Once you have your selections, keep them handy and listen to them after a long, hard day at work. It’s one of the best forms of therapy.
