The Amazing Benefits of Music in the Golden Years
First of all, let's define "golden years." Many would say "the time of life after retirement from active work." I'm sure there are any number of ways it could be defined but generally it's the last couple of decades when life takes on a slower pace and we are free to bask in the glow of beautiful memories!
What role does music play? A big one for many people! Listening to the tunes we fell in love to, sang to our kids and grandkids makes for really great feelings; oftentimes warm, fuzzy feelings. There is considerable scientific research out there that documents the fact that music can:
1. boost your immune system
2. lower your blood pressure
3. decrease anxiety
4. decrease depression
5. improve circulation
I don't know about you, but I think these are all big deals! Begin thinking now about how YOU can put music to work for you and your health. You'll be so glad you did!
