Music decreases levels of the stress hormone cortisol just as well as massage therapy does. Scientists (random) assigned anxious patients to listen to music either during massage therapy or while lying in a dim room. After three months, those who just (listen) to music experienced the same drop in anxiety as those who also got massages.

Listening to music before surgery has been shown to ease anxiety and limit the need for sedatives. After surgery, it helps reduce pain. analysis of 73 studies (publish) in the Lancet in 2015 confirmed that listening to music before, during, or after surgery improves anxiety and pain levels,  in turn means less pain medication.

People come up with more creative  (solution) when they listen to happy music than when they sit in silence, according to researchers from the Netherlands and Australia.

    Once a group of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (high) successful engineers got together to visit their old university professor, Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. While they were {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (talk), the professor went and prepared coffee in the kitchen. Then back with a pot of coffee and cups {#blank#}3{#/blank#} different kinds, some ordinary-looking, some expensive, some delicate, the professor told them to help {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(they) to hot coffee. When they all had a cup of coffee in their hands, he said, "If you noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(take)up, leaving behind the plain and cheap-looking ones. While it's normal for you to choose the best for yourselves, that's the source of your problems and stress. In {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(real), the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. What mattered most was coffee, not the cup, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you went for the best cups directly and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (bad) still, you began eyeing each other's cups. If life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They're just tools {#blank#}9{#/blank#} hold and contain life, but the quality of life doesn't change. Sometimes by {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (concentrate) only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it."

    Don't let the cups drive you, and enjoy the coffee instead.
