Jeannette advises you… The Olympia against Alzheimer
Recently I heard about a special concert, a concert to fight against Alzheimer’s disease. I immediately found this initiative remarkable and I want to talk to you about it.On Monday, February 15, a concert will be held at the Olympia bringing together two generations of singers; it is the 11th event concert organized by the association for Alzheimer’s research.The impact of music on people with Alzheimer’s
Music has a unique power over the human mind, especially among people with Alzheimer’s disease. Numerous studies show that music can stimulate memory and improve the quality of life of patients. Here are some observed benefits:- Memory stimulation: Music can revive buried memories, allowing patients to reconnect with their past.
- Reduction of anxiety: Listening to soothing music can help reduce agitation and anxiety in people with Alzheimer’s.
- Improvement of mood: Joyful music can evoke positive emotions and enhance the mood of patients.
- Facilitation of communication: Music can serve as a means of communication for those who have difficulty expressing themselves verbally.
