Researchers Say You Should Listen to This Song If You Need to Relax

We all love a good tune and they're used for different things in our lives. 

Music can be a powerful way to fight stress and anxiety. Some of us have go-to playlists to boost our mood on a bad day and it's looking like we'll have to make an addition to it because researchers have found the perfect song to listen to if you need to relax.

“Weightless” by Marconi Union has been shown to reduce anxiety in listeners by up to 65%, according to Inc. The song, which was composed with the help of sound therapists, helps insomnia and reduces stress levels.

Every note in the eight-minute song is designed to lower your heart rate and blood pressure — ultimately reducing your body’s level of the stress hormone cortisol, according to The Guardian.

It's so relaxing that researchers advise against listening to it when you're driving!

Although there’s no quick fix for depression or anxiety disorder, listening to music is a powerful coping method that’s easy to incorporate into your daily routine.

Inc also provided a playlist with additional songs that will lower your heart rate and ease your anxiety levels. Some of them may already be in your library — the list includes “Someone Like You” by Adele, “Pure Shores” by All Saints, and “Strawberry Swing” by Coldplay.”
