Play for Your Health!
You also can play music to boost your brain. (The brain benefits are for those who play an instrument, not just say, "Alexa, play 'thank u, next'.") This Inc. magazine article shares that playing a musical instrument offers a symphony of benefits for your memory and your mental and emotional health. It states:
"These studies prove that learning a musical instrument increases gray matter volume in various brain regions, It also strengthens the long-range connections between them. Additional research shows that musical training can enhance verbal memory, spatial reasoning, and literacy skills."
So, need help with the puzzles below or the Sunday crossword? Ask our band, orchestra, chorus or other musical friends!
