Sleeping with music
Music as a remedy for insomnia
Sleep disorders are quite common and are often due to hectic schedules, a busy lifestyle, and even computer and cell phone use, especially before bed. One of the most used remedies to relax and reconcile sleep is music.Backed by science
Music touches on many situations in our daily lives: it makes us dance and daydream, and sometimes it makes us cry or even makes us... sleep. Parents know from experience that lullabies and sweet melodies can help children fall asleep. Science supports this observation, showing that children of all ages, from infants to elementary school children, sleep better after listening to soothing melodies. But babies aren't the only ones who can benefit from lullabies before bed. A study has revealed that adults who listen to 45 minutes of relaxing music (60bpm) before bedtime experience better sleep quality on the first night. This is an encouraging finding, considering the beneficial effect this lifestyle brings to those who usually listen to music as part of their bedtime routine. Listening to a musical composition at 60 beats per minute causes our heartbeats to match those of the song, slowing it down until we reach a heart rate that slowly leads toward relaxation and rest. Breathing will follow the pattern of the heart and the song, until music and breath synchronize with each other, leading to slow, deep breaths.
