BENEFITS OF DRUMMING

  Hai friends,
                  here I am sharing with you the benefits of drumming. Most of the students coming to me for studying the drum playing because of their craze and interest to become a drummer. Here I am describing some scientific facts about the benefits of drumming. Our brain having two sections called left brain and right brain.
 As you can see the above picture Rhythm, Music, Imagination, Action and Creativity controlled and executed by Right brain, and Logic, Analysis, Language, Numbers and Sequences etc. by Left brain. Left side of our body controlled by Right brain and right side of our body controlled by our Left brain. Efficiency of the both brain determine our out put. Due to many factors most of the human having imbalance brain efficiency. Some having more active left brain, so they will more analytical, logical and having good memory people, and right brain activated people having more creativity, artistic, energetic and having short term memory. Think about the job of a doctor, when he do a consultation he is using his left brain for recollecting what he learned and analyzing the disease, but when an architect doing his job he is creating new designs so he want right brain to do his job. 
                             Due to continues use of any brain will cause the other brain to less work.If you have a memory loss it will tell that left brain is in low active.There are two types of memory, short term and long term.Long term means the memory to store all the things we learned, short term means suppose if you want to go for a shopping you must to remember what you want to buy, after the purchase you don't need to remember that. Right brain activated people having short term and left brain activated people having long term memory. But when we study about the successful persons in the world, they having both brains equally activated. If you have both brains in same functioning you can easily remember what you learn and think and analyze with your logic and you can execute in a creative way at the proper time and you will be successful. Our habits, nature and lifestyle will affects the efficiency of our brain. For balancing both the brain means we are totally efficient. There are some trainings for this and it is called brain gymnastics. 
             There are many ways for this. And drumming is a very perfect way for brain gymnastics, because in drumming we are using both hands and legs like an athlete. When these four limbs are in work, the synchronize and rhythmic beating will activate both the brain in equal amount of energy. Because all the nerves starting from the brain directly goes to each palm and sole of feet and returns to organs and then go to the brain. Actually this is the same principle for acupressure or acupuncture therapy. When you regularly playing drumming like an exercise it will make our brain more powerful and efficient. 



                        From systematic drumming we will get Skill, Dexterity, More memory, Active, Energetic, Logical, Analytical. Sharp, Clear and Healthy mind. The benefits are two, one our brain will be more powerful, secondly we will get more relaxation after a drumming. Our stress, strain, tensions will dissolve in to thin air. Your both hands and legs including your body in working and a good physical exercise also. So its a great tool helping your mind and body.
