And humans generate it while trying to escape it. Since the earliest ages of our history, humans have always escaped stress.\u00a0 And music has always been a great ally.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"an-experiment-based-on-puzzles-and-music\"><strong>An experiment based on puzzles and music<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A group of neuroscientists wanted to investigate the relationship between music and escape routes from stress. The attendees to the experiment had to solve highly difficult puzzles in a limited &#8211; and not very long &#8211; period of time while being connected to sensors that measured the brain activity, psychological states and how these affected heart rate and blood pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Each of the participants listened to a different song in their headphones as they tried to solve their puzzle.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-is-the-most-relaxing-track-in-the-world\"><strong>What is the most relaxing track in the world?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Dr David Lewis-Hodgson of Mindlab International led the research. He said that the winning track produced a greater state of relaxation than any other music tested to date.<\/p>\n<p>The winning song was &#8220;Weightless&#8221; by Marconi Union. Attendees who listened to this track saw their overall anxiety percentages reduced by 65%. The result is impressive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Marconi Union - Weightless (Official Video)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UfcAVejslrU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dr Lewis-Hodgson also had no doubts: &#8220;I noticed several women who had listened to this song and I had to advise them not to drive the car in the hours after the experiment, as I saw them numb and even dazed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"marconi-union-achieved-their-goal\"><strong>Marconi Union achieved their goal<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>What if &#8220;Weightless&#8221; was designed for this? Well, indeed, it was. Marconi Union produced &#8220;Weightless&#8221; in collaboration with sound therapists. Their carefully arranged harmonies, rhythms and bass lines help to lower the listener&#8217;s heart rate, lower their blood pressure and decrease the levels of the stress hormone, cortisol.<\/p>\n<p>In the world of the 21st century, stress is one of the greatest endemic problems faced by our society. A Harvard and Stanford study found that health problems resulting from workplace stress cause, on average, more deaths than diabetes or Alzheimer&#8217;s disease.
