Music is slowly being accepted as a
strong positive therapeutic energy source. Psychological associations
world-wide accept that music can have the effect of promoting
wellness, helping relieve stress and pain, enhancing memory, helping
fine and gross motor skills, and improving communication.
Music therapy has helped many different
people of various different age groups. Neither does a person’s age
matter, nor the mental or physical condition. In fact, even an
elderly person who is hard of hearing can better the impaired hearing
through music. Music is a mannerism of escape in many people today.
The escape mechanism is mainly exploited by adolescents who are still looking to find their identities. Quite a few parents feel flustered that their teenage children close them out with ear-buds. Instead of depriving children of music, it is advisable to channel the same energy into a different form of music. Instead of listening to music all the time, it may work better if you sign your children up for music lessons.
The American Music Therapy Association
has been a pioneering force in advocating the importance of music as
a means to aid people. Music is used in many correctional facilities,
rehabilitation centers, childcare centers, intervention programs, and
various different social institutions. In fact, music need not be
used only for those who suffer from mental or physical conditions.
Music is proven to help memory and
concentration. Playing an instrument or singing helps controlling
one’s own motor ability. All-in-all, music should be incorporated
into people’s routines to help promote wellness and healthy living.
