Scientists Have Found The Most Relaxing Song Of All Time
What is the most relaxing song ever? Well, thanks to a British band and a group of scientists, the most relaxing tune in history has been discovered.
"Weightless" by Macaroni Union is about to be your go-to meditation jam. The band teamed up with sound therapists to create the most relaxing song of all time. So, how does someone make the most relaxing song of all time? According to Lyz Cooper, founder of the British Academy of Sound Therapy, there are a few elements that create the most relaxing experience.
A continuous rhythm of 60 BPM causes the brainwaves and heart rate to synchronise with the rhythm: a process known as ‘entrainment’. Low underlying bass tones relax the listener and a low whooshing sound with a trance-like quality takes the listener into an even deeper state of calm.
So, if you are looking to make the ultimate relaxation playlist, you're definitely going to want "Weightless" on it. There's even a ten hour version on YouTube that you can enjoy.
