12. Healthy hearts.

Sound processing begins in the brainstem, which also controls the rate of your heartbeat and respiration. This connection could explain why relaxing music may lower heart rate, breathing rate, and blood pressure — and also seems to ease pain, stress, and anxiety.

Relaxing, calm music is considered to be wellbeing for your heart. Soothing and relaxing music contributes towards lowering our blood pressure and heart rate. Our heartbeat becomes more regular and rhythmic, we have fewer arrhythmias, and we feel calmer.

While music therapy is often used to promote mental and emotional health, it may also improve the quality of life for people with physical health problems, such as heart failure. Listening to relaxing, calm soothing music have both demonstrated benefits for promoting cardiovascular health and the resting heart rate.

Soothing relaxation music shows great potential for lowering one’s stress, heart rate, and blood pressure, and to strengthening the heart. Singing for example,  can improve both heart and lung function. It has the potential to strengthen chest-wall muscles as well as improve heart function and heart rate variability.

Listening to music for just 30 minutes every day can be good for your mind and body heart and significantly lower levels of anxiety and pain. Relaxing piano music for example, combined with standard therapies such as medications, can be a simple, accessible measure that patients can do at home to potentially reduce symptoms of heart disease and help prevent subsequent cardiac events.
