Are you an adult? Then learn a musical instrument! The benefits are immense!

You have grown up and you think that you can not start learning anything new. But you have that voice inside you saying “What about that musical instrument that you always wanted to learn?…”. If you think that only children can benefit from learning a musical instrument, then you are wrong. Learning to play an instrument has many benefits for adults as too.

You are going to have a good time

You may not be able to play at the Royal Albert Hall or Madison Square Garden, but one thing is for sure: if you start an instrument as an adult you will definitely have fun. You may not have a good time when you are practicing or when you have to learn something difficult but in the end you’ll have this great feeling at heart and the pieces that you learned to play will!

It’s good for your brain

There is nothing better for the mind than learning notes, learning how to put your hands and legs together and play a piece by heart.

It melts the stress away

Most of us have a lot going on in our lives and a lot of stress too. But when you learn and play music you have to be there when it happens and all the other worries go away. Music also reduces feelings of depression.

You will get stronger!

Learning to play a musical instrument may not be exactly like exercising but it does its part in strengthening your body. You will strengthen your fingers, arms, shoulders and even your back and abs if you have the right posture.

You’ll improve your coordination

In the case of many musical instruments such as the piano you have to combine arms, legs and your mind to be able to play so you will improve the coordination of your body.

It’s good for your soul

There is nothing better than finally learning to play a piece that you really like. This sense of achievement that you feel is very important and adds to your personal value. Giota Florou Sources: abc.net.au, ualberta.ca, musicnotes.com Recent Articles
