Influence of classical music

As we all know classical music is one of the best known music type all over the world. Do you know someone who doesn't know about Mozart or Chopin? I don't think so.

Anyway, going to the subject, I've already known that all kinds of music can boost your mood. But what I came across is that some scientists proved that classical music can lower your blood pressure or even make your IQ bigger. Unfortunately it is a short term effect, but it can be used as a brain warm up before doing something which needs abstract thinking. Despite that, majority of people don't think listening to some special tyle of music can magically boost your intelligence, in their opinion it is occured by placebo. But one is sure- if you feel anxious, listening to music that you like releases dopamine, which is in charge of stress reduce. What is unique is, that classical music has  calming properties, and one doctor said that it seems to clarify your mind. What caught my attention the most is one surgeon claiming that Mozarts sonatas make some of his patients reach for pain medicine less. Also what this doctor has found is that a half of the brains of his pupils release a hormone which results in faster regeneration.

    From what I've read, listening to classical music doesn't have any long term effects indeed. It has calming properties though but I suppose you have to listen to appropriate pieces - some modern classical music would only make you anxious or aggressive.

Is 600£ for a night at the Mandarin Oriental a good value of money?

I think that a night at the Mandarin Oriental is a complete waste of money for ordinary people. When comparing it to other luxurious hotels, it makes no sense to spend 600£ just because of its fame. Of course if you are a millionaire,spending some extra money doesn’t make any difference. However for most of us it would better to invest that money in something else like travelling or education. A stay in this luxurious hotel is a great deal only for wealthy people.

It’s hard to decide whether it had a positive or negative influence on our lives. On one hand the problem of hunger was overcame, a lot of new plants and animals were brought to Europe.

To sum up it had many good consequences, made at the expense of many deaths of native americans.

Facts about music part 1

Have you ever felt shivers when listening to your favourite song? If you are wondering, why they happen then keep on reading. The first thing as I mentioned before are those strange chills you get. They are actually caused by dopamine release, what it means is that your brain can be easily manipulated by different sounds, which to me sounds crazy. Next, the author of the text mentioned about affection of speed and loudness of music on our heartbeat. Surprisingly, the more stimulating music you are listening to e.g. hardcore or rave music the faster your heart beats. Same with listening to more calm music, it automatically calms you down. Some scientist say that music can be as addictive as drugs. If you ever had this strange, unpleasant feeling when you couldn't listen to music, beacause you left your earphones at home, you're probably a "music junkie".
