Music Is A Kind Of Acoustic Code Of Physiology

Almost everybody likes music, but not many people ask why. Even less people believe that the music is a kind of acoustic code of our physiology.

Actually, it is very easy to answer this question and to know that music is indeed a kind of acoustic code of physiology, if we can spare some time to think it over by means of our very common sense.

 Origin

 As a kind of symbiotic animal, we have to communicate in order to coordinate the activity of our symbiotic group so that we can survive.

Just watch the happy baby "singing" lying in the bed or cradle for a moment. Then, the mother, the closest symbiotic member, can believe instinctively that everything is going well with her baby according to his or her physiological instincts. 

On the other hand, when the baby is crying in the bed, there must be something wrong with his or her physiological functions.

Therefore, obviously music is a tool of communication between members in a symbiotic group.

The three kinds of basic structural bricks of music are apparently the vibration of vocal cord (also the basis of stringed and wind instrument), the beating of heart (percussion instruments and beat), and the period of breathing (section).

The variation of length and tone color of these three bricks in conformity with the variation of our physiological functions, are used instinctively to express our feeling or physiology in order to communicate to our symbiotic members of different degree of cohesion.

That is why everybody can understand music innately without learning or translation.

Singing a good song can express our feeling or physiological state more efficiently, because it is a series of these acoustic code which is highly optimized.

Invalid Music

Since music can make us happy, it, just like happiness, can be classified into valid and invalid ones according to the optimal point of 10,000-years-ago norm. (Ref. #1,2)

As in the cases of delicious junk food, smoking, marijuana, which control our physiology by chemicals, we are facing a problem of fascinating invalid music which waste us much time and money and let our own physiology controlled by the artificially acoustic code of physiology made by others. (Ref. 2-6)

Such as indulging in:

• Folk songs too long time or singing star chasing,
• Too much complicated symphony,
• Decadent music,
•  ...

 Conclusion

Do not let our physiology be controlled by others' music. It will hurt us.

Baby sleeping aids

It is usual for babies to wake up several times during the night to gurgle or toss around this is a normal human sleeping pattern it’s just that a baby involves the parent in this waking process thus disturbing the parents sleep. If the baby has trouble falling to sleep and time for cradling and swaying by the parent is limited then there are some products on the market that can help sooth the baby off to the land of nod.

A pacifier is a simple and long time tried and tested baby sleeping aid it has been recommended by the AAP to aid sleep for babies as sucking is a natural comforting response for all babies. Although parents do worry about negative orthodontic effects of sucking a pacifier the AAP recommends just using it at night to aid sleep for the child’s first year. A swaddling blanket is a good way to make your baby feel comfortable at bedtime, the secure wrapping of a swaddling blanket will help prevent reflexes during sleep giving a more comfortable sleep for the baby.

Another relaxation tool to get baby off to sleep are the soft noise baby sleeping aids such as the white noise machine. The idea behind this is that it produces soft background noise that is similar to what the baby experiences in the mothers womb thus promoting sleep, a cheaper alternative to this could be simply the old fashioned soft music mobile over the baby’s crib.  A baby swing or baby rocker is a really good sleeping aid that simply slowly rocks the baby in a side to side motion that imitates a mothers sway, the baby can be put in this while the parent can get ready for bed and usually the baby will be asleep within minutes.
