23 Ways Music Can be Positive for the Body (Infograph)

Find out what your brain looks like on music.

Laura Lurns Last updated January 3, 2019

The following article lists twenty-three ways music can be positive on the body. The effects of music on the brain can have a large number of positive effects. It’s proven that music activates parts of the brain that are not normally used during the regular normal day to day activities. The average person listens to twenty-five songs a day. That is over one song per hour of the day. Listening to music can lessen people’s pain. It can’t prevent one from overeating. It can generally leave people feeling better all around. Music has been proven to have healing effects on the body. And it definitely can improve a person’s overall mood. Michigan State University boasts the number one music education program in the world. The effects of music on the body are vast. Perhaps most importantly is the positive effects that have been captured within education. Listening to music has proven to increase learning capability among people.

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
