The Superpower of Singing

Week 48 of 2025 - Thankful for our Readers

It turns out that singing is your superpower. When it comes to calming a little one or cheering yourself up -music speaks louder than words. Singing can improve your performance and state of mind across everyday challenges like keeping anger at bay, ending procrastination , dealing with pain and relaxation. Many of us can remember song lyrics from decades ago word for word. Songs that we love are deeply embedded in our brains, shaping both our conscious thought and unconscious emotions.

You don’t need perfect pitch to unlock the healing power of your voice, just the courage to use it.
Science shows that singing, even off-key, lowers stress hormones, regulates your nervous system, and boosts cognitive flexibility. Your voice is one of the most powerful, accessible tools that you have and it’s free!

So go ahead, sing in the shower, hum while you drive, belt out that chorus in your kitchen.

Make a playlist of your favorite songs or hymns and try it - Your heart and brain will thank you.
