Reverberation : do everything better with music  Cover Image Book Book

Reverberation : do everything better with music / Keith Blanchard ; foreword by Peter Gabriel.

Blanchard, Keith, 1966- (author.). Gabriel, Peter, 1950- (writer of foreword.).

Summary:

"Music has been part of every human culture. We listen to music while we drive, exercise, eat, sleep, study, you name it; we spend hundreds to watch live musical performances; we soundtrack our weddings and funerals and everything in between. But why? We put music at the forefront of our lives because every drum solo and every aria causes our brains to fire off a cocktail of feel-good neurotransmitters: dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin. Reverberation: Do Everything Better with Music is the perfect hybrid of neuroscience and pop culture, examining, deconstructing, and teaching us about the ways in which we can, do, and should use music in our everyday lives. With a foreword by Peter Gabriel and jam-packed with interviews with other artists and celebrities, this illustrated book explains the science behind how music motivates us and gives us useful tips, tricks, and playlists for how we can become the best version of ourselves through our music-listening habits. Touching on topics such as sleeping, studying and focusing, exercising, sex and love, aging and memory, meditating and chilling out, emotional healing, creating, pregnancy, and music in altered states, this book covers a wide range of topics and all genres of music"-- Provided by publisher.

    "Music is a universal human experience that's been with us since the dawn of time. You've listened to music all your life . . . but have you ever wondered why?
