Everyone enjoys music, whether it be a very new song or an old time song. People have long loved the beats and melody of music, but can it also have positive effects on the human body? In our media class we must create a documentary on a subject which interests us. I believe that music is one of the most important part of our society that is over looked by our schooling system. Music is part of every society, every culture, every nation and yet music programs are being cut from high schools around the nation.
Listening to calming music before you go to sleep and after you wake up has been proven to bring down high blood pressure. Music has also be proven to increase immune system health by decreasing the hormone cortisol, which is related to stress. Music can also increase productivity in a whole range of activities. It can help you sleep, wake you up, work hard, and decrease stress. Doctor Weinburger Ph.D said that listening to music can increase cognitive skills, language ability, creativity, reasoning, and social adjustment. Music has such an important effect on the mind and peoples live's yet it is basically ignored by the schooling system. My idea is to make a documentary about the importance of music in life.
