 A healthy life choice is generally defined by how physically healthy you are, correct? For example, if you have a cold or are sick, you are unhealthy. If you are dealth a life changing disease such as aids or cancer, you are unhealthy. But does this mean that it is all physical? Absolutely not! Health is also made up by your mental state. Think about this, the kind of music you listen to generally affects your personality type. Here is a great example: I listened to Hard Rock as a teenager (most teenagers do) and was extremely crazy, mischievous, full of energy, and lots of fun! Today I am more mature, I listen to lighter music and I am more relaxed, laid back, careless, and less energetic.
Let us focus on music and setting the mood. Again, going back to the heavy rock, how does it make you feel when you listen to it? I can tell you from experience that heavy music gets my adrenaline rushing, my foot pounding, my head pulsing. In short, it sends me into overdrive! How does t make you feel when you listen to music? Let us go to the opposite side of the spectrum and use classical music as an scenario. If you are listening to a song written by Beethoven, how do you feel? I am generally feeling very classy, smart, makes me feel like learning, opening a book, become a better person. It is a totally different mood it puts me in. What does it do for you?
So how does this make you live healthier? The correct kind of music can help your mood and personality improve, creating a positive and happy outlook on life. It is a proven fact that a happier person lives longer and is in better health than someone who is always worried, miserable, and unhappy. The body was not designed to deal with stress all the time. That is where disease stems from. Think of the word, dis ease. That means there is not ease in the body, stress can be the cause. Music can be the fix.
Music can be a great enjoyment for all involved. How great do you feel when you listen to your favorite song come on the radio or iPod? How does it make you feel when you hear a song you do not like? Not that good right?
Let us talk about movies. What about horror movies, what kind of music do they play? Some play really creepy high pitched, quick paced scary music, others have gotten smart and play NOTHING musically. This is genius because mentally, without music your mind wonders and it allows them to put more suspense behind the movie. Do you recall the movie The Blair Witch Project? It was a very low budget flick, and done with little to no soundtrack. Somehow it still was one of the most watched and popular horror movies of its time.
What about your movies that make you feel good? Next time you get a chance, watch Disneys Enchanted? It is a musical all in its own that has light, soft, dance in the street, hug your neighbor, sweet music. It makes you feel extremely loving and uncharacteristically in the mood to kiss a chipmunk. Disney knew what they were doing with this. As with most Disney movies the soundtrack is key. It puts the audience in a positive mind frame and gives them something to look forward to.
What about action movies, what type of music do they focus on? I would say techno, heavy, fast paced rock soundtrack? Think about one of the best action movies ever The Matrix. The theme song is a fast paced bass guitar riff. It puts you in the mind frame to conquer the world! Not necessarily a positive attitude, but still, makes me happy at that time.
What does all this music stuff have to do with living longer and healthier? Find out what makes you happy and focus your attention on that sort of music. Do not attempt to trick yourself; you know what it is that makes you feel good. Enjoy this knowledge that you now have on living just a little bit healthier with music and share this with your family.
