How to Prevent Seizures

Some people is benefit from decreased seizure activity as a result of listening to music.

It's been shown that music by Mozart played on the piano reduces seizure-causing activity in the brain within five minutes of exposure, with many cases showing immediate results in what scientists should called Seizure Wolfgang-banging. Mozart's music reproduction doesn't have to be directly from the piano, but hearing the frequencies out of a portable Bluetooth speaker will do the same work because, there appears to be a connection between our brains and piano music.



It's theorized that "the superorganization of the cerebral cortex . . . may resonate with the superior architecture of Mozart's music". Really though, this is another one of those medical shrug moments, as scientists really haven't figured it out yet. But still working, maybe the answer will come later, but the solution is here already.

Music and the Brain @ Ted Talks

You surely have heard about Ted Talks, and if you haven't, TED Talks are videos that present a great idea in 18 minutes or less. They’re filmed at flagship TED conferences, independent TEDx events, and other special TED programs. Their goal is to share Ideas Worth Spreading — in fields like science, technology, business, culture, art and design — around the world.



This time, we bring you a a conference by Jessica Grahn about music you may find interesting. It describes what is known as the Mozart Effect, and how the brain gets stimulated by the sound waves of the music. Check out the video below, and enjoy.
