hemisphere was left to logical thinking. By monitoring Brain waves, Scientists
have recorded electrical activity in many different cortices on both the left

Playing the piano will improve our motor neuron's
function. Hand movements are an integral part of playing the piano. The player
uses both of his/her hands and all ten fingers to play the composition. This
improves motor skills, hand’s fitness, and coordination remarkably. Music has a
great positive effect on our brains and if one who plays the piano, he/she can
process plenty of information in a short time. Which means our multitasking
abilities improve tremendously. And, individuals who learn piano have an
increased attention span and self-confidence, as well as other qualities like
better language abilities and greater empathy. The sight-reading requires the
player to read two lines, each in different clef, with better concentration. This
practice made them more confident to face any situations in their life without
fear and made them more confident and increase their concentration skills. We
are facing different struggles in our daily life for instance, a student has to
face exams as it is a compulsory part of their curriculum. Similarly, all of us
facing a lot of stress in our daily activities. Do you know one thing? Just an
hour of playing the piano can keep your stress away! If we feel anxious,
stressed or worried, spend an hour playing the piano. It makes us stress-free

We know that with low stress and anxiety levels
our memory gets boosted and remembering things get easier. Remember all you
need to and recall just on time. Finally, playing the piano is known to improve

connections between neurons. Learning any subject becomes much easier for
children. They process information faster and understand things quicker.
