What Mozart and Bach Knew That We Just Found Out

17th and 18th century composers like Bach, Beethoven and Mozart composed what we now call "Baroque" music. It's known for its slow largo rhythm of 55-60 beats per minute.

Back in the 1950s and 1960s when Georgi Lozanov was developing his Suggestopedic method for Accelerated Learning, he discovered that Baroque music had a remarkable effect on the brain and its capacity for speeding and deepening memory. He noticed this type of music speeds
memory and makes it last.

But HOW it does this is pretty amazing.

The constant, "mathematical" rhythm causes more of your brain cells vibrate at a slower 8-12 cycles per second.

In this "alpha" state, stress evaporates...Your pulse automatically synchronizes with the music...and your brain soaks in new information better and more effectively than when in a "normal" waking state.

Tests at Iowa State University showed that just listening to Baroque music ALONE can help you increase the amount you learn and remember by 25%. Another study by UC Irvine
confirms this.

Plus, 55-60 beat-per-minute music has also been shown to enhance sleep, lower blood pressure, even boost your natural defenses against disease.

Pretty remarkable that "mathematical" music can have that type of effect on your mind and body, isn't it? Plus, it only needs to be loud enough for your ears to register the rhythm.

Everything else happens automatically. This eventually activates even deeper subconscious
brainwave patterns, known as the "theta" state, of 4-8 cycles per minute. This is where deep, emotional changes become weaved into the fabric of who you are.
