Health and Music Whether you play an instrument or just like to listen to music, there are many reasons to continue doing just that. Studies show that listening to music can improve your health and well-being, and may even increase your intelligence. Here are some surprising facts about the benefits of music compiled by the Coalition for Music Education in Canada: - Music can help migraine sufferers reduce the intensity, frequency and duration of headaches.
- Music therapists working with Alzheimer’s patients have found that listening to music resulted in decreased agitation, increased focus and concentration, enhanced ability to respond verbally and behaviorally, elimination of demented speech, improved ability to respond to questions, and better social interaction.
- Scientists have found that music involves left, right, front, and back portions of the brain.
- The average scores achieved by music students on the 1999 SAT increased for every year of musical study. The same trend was found in SAT scores of previous years.

So if you listen to music, you're more likely to eat Shawarma ?

Oh sweet! That is great news! My household, the music never stops. I have shelves of CDs from the floor to the ceiling. Sirius radio when no CD's are on. TV is good for a bit of government controlled news, and movies. TELL THE KIDS! Music is it!

I figured it out, and I listen to music almost 11 hours a day. All day while I work away. Then supper time I usually have it on, then in the evenings too. Not a TV fan, so music it is. Biking and driving too. Music is my roomate and a good one too. Always cleans up after itself!
