3. Music Improves Your Health and Lowers Stress
Listening to the music you love reduces the amount of cortisol in your body. Cortisol is a stress hormone that is behind chronic stress. This is important because stress is the leading cause of 60% of all the illness and disease a person suffers. If you also create music by playing percussion instruments and singing then you receive an even bigger boost to your immune system than if you were just playing.
