🧠 Memory Care Tid-Bit 🧠

🎵 Music is a uniquely rich stimulus! Listening to music produces coordinated activity across auditory, motor, emotional, and memory systems in the brain. For example, music:

✨ Helps synchronize neuron firing that improves timing, coordination, and connectivity
✨ Stimulates dopamine production, which supports learning and plasticity of the brain
✨ Lowers stress hormones like cortisol
✨ Encourages the body to engage in light movement like tapping and singing

Keep music in mind to help with you care for those with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia – the benefits are astoundingly positive! 💪🎵
