Melodies can cheer us up, and that’s just the beginning Some believe that the birth of the universe was accompanied by sound—the primordial om.
Perhaps, that’s why humans are naturally drawn to music, seeking out vibrations as a way to anchor an experience.
The notion that the melodies of Claude Debussy and Coldplay conjure certain calm is not just in your head.
A 2017 study of almost 2,000 participants showed that those who had music intervention—listening or participating in music therapy projects—showed a statistically significant reduction in depression levels.
Music is often used as treatment, especially in psychedelic therapy, including ketamine, to help manage mood disorders and addiction.
In fact, a study in Psychopharmacology showed that music is a vessel for interpreting emotions (both positive and negative) and plays a role in “insightfulness”, creating openness and influencing one’s sense of safety.
