More research on dementia and music



This happens to be a great deal on this CD with golden oldies. We all remember these hits. Somehow when we listen to them we feel better and that is not surprising because as I said before research has shown that music and emotions are closely related in your brain.

This holds true for people with dementia also. With a tool called brain mapping,scientists have shown that when someone listens to music they like, brain activity increases

The part of the brain where memories of our past are kept and retrieved also serves as a center that brings together familiar music, memories and emotion.The discovery may help to explain why………
come back tomorrow to find out why.
In the meantime, buy this CD here
or get this CD from the library. It will work wonders for those with early Alzheimer’s disease and dementia
