You may notice that the music in the film may have an emotional effect while the seeing. While watching a horror movie, music can tell us when something of fear, threat or disaster will happen.

The exceptional benefits of music for your health: Seven reasons to listen to music now
It's no secret that college students love music. Whether on your way to class, heading to the gym or hanging out with friends, music just makes us feel good. And depending on the style you choose, it can do everything from revving up your energy for a night on the town to calming your nerves before a big exam.
Music, though, is much more than a beat to tap your toes to or a tune to sing along with. Increasing numbers of studies are confirming that listening to music can have a real, positive influence on your health. Here are seven of the most significant health reasons to listen to some music today (as if you needed even one more!).
1. Relieve stress. In one study, patients who had just been told they needed surgery listened to a calming piece of music. Their levels of the stress hormone cortisol were 50 percent lower than patients who did not listen to any music, according to Roger W. Wicke, Ph.D, instructor in Chinese herbology and director of the Rocky Mountain Herbal Institute.
2. Increase energy. In some cases, such as during sports events or other high-intensity exercise, high levels of cortisol are desirable. Runners were able to produce high levels of cortisol faster when they listened to energizing music with a fast pace.
3. Learn better. Bulgarian psychologist George Lozanov found that students who listened to Baroque instrumental music (such as J.S. Bach) while learning a foreign language had an increased speed of learning and a greater degree of memory retention than those who did not.
4. Become smarter (at least temporarily). Researcher Frances Rauscher coined the term "The Mozart Effect." It refers to his finding that study participants who listened to 10 minutes of Mozart music performed 48 percent better on a paper-folding task that was part of an intelligence test. The effect lasted about 10 minutes.
5. Relax. Alfred Tomatis, a French ear specialist, found that listening to Baroque or classical music (particularly string instruments like the violin, viola and cello) induced brainwave patterns in humans that correlate with relaxation of muscle tension and calm attentiveness.
6. Sleep better. Adults with sleep problems who listened to 45 minutes of soft music at bedtime reported a 35 percent improvement in their sleep, according to a study published in the February 2005 edition of The Journal of Advanced Nursing. Not only did they sleep better and longer, but they also reported less daytime dysfunction.
7. Protect your heart. A new study in the journal Heart found that listening to fast music sped up participants' circulation and breathing rates while slower music induced calm and led to a fall in heart rate. When the music was paused, the participants' signals of arousal (breathing rates, etc.) fell below where they had been at the start of the study, which researchers say is helpful in protecting against heart disease and stroke.

How to relieve stress and anxiety Using music therapy for healing
We all live in stressful times right now, and music can help relieve stress. Music healing therapy also known as Binaural Beats, is music that has calming sounds like water and birds set to certain beats to stimulate the brain to relax.
In today's economy, people are more stressed out then ever before. It's been a long time since I've seen so many people worry about their jobs, their homes, everything. So I'm writing this article to maybe help someone out there, that is having it a little rough right now.
A few months back I too was stressing out about my job and my home, but a friend of mine told me about a site that has music that relieves stress, so I checked it out, and to my surprise it really works. I went on the site and they have a free sample (a ten minute music sample) that you can download to your computer, or MP3 player and try it for yourself, and it worked great, they have different music for what ever problems you may have such as depression, trouble sleeping, addictions, anxiety and much more.
So now that I got your attention I will explain how this music works. The music has what is called Binaural Beats. These beats are incorporated in the music, and they are set to different frequencies to stimulate your brain. Binaural Beats was discovered in 1893 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, and it works by broadcasting two different frequencies in each ear. The frequencies are set in the music, and are different for what ever problem you have, the music may sound the same, but are totally different. The music is soft and calming, with sounds of waterfalls and different types of animal sounds, it's like your out in the woods, it's great, very relaxing.
I love music, I grew up with music all around me, it always makes me feel good. But this music is very different, it makes you relax. When listening to this music you need to find a quiet place with no distractions, like your bedroom, also you need to put your headphones on and close your eyes and just concentrate on the music. I would not recommend listening to this when driving a car it's too relaxing. You can download music that is fifteen minutes long, a half hour long, and longer it's up to you. I feel that music healing therapy is the best way to relieve stress and anxiety. If you have stress in your life I highly recommend it.
