Summary

Singen wirkt sich positiv auf das menschliche Wohlbefinden aus. Durch Musik werden verschiedene neurohumorale Systeme reguliert, unter anderem in Bezug auf Stress, Belohnung, Motivation, soziale Bindung und das Immunsystem. Studien zeigen, dass das Singen sich positiv auf den Verlauf verschiedener Krankheiten auswirkt. So kann es unter anderem Angststörungen oder Depressionen lindern, aber auch Symptome bei neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen und Lungenerkrankungen.

Keywords
