“Dementia Miracle” Found in HEADPHONES?!
Dear Turapür Today Reader,
What’s the only thing harder than coming to grips with a dementia diagnosis?
Maintaining your quality of life!
That’s because once dementia does take hold… your memories, identity, and independence all seem to deteriorate at a rapid pace.
And while there still isn’t a cure for this life-shattering disease, there’s new research to suggest that dementia doesn’t have to take away you or a loved one’s overall quality of life.
And believe it or not, a simple set of headphones could dramatically change how you look at dementia care.
Let me explain…
According to a new research study out of Belgium, dementia patient’s overall quality of life can actually improve through using a personal ‘soundscape’ of familiar noises.
It turns out that listening to simple, soothing sounds such as birds singing or the patter of rain, can reduce the symptoms of the debilitating illness.
‘Familiar’ noises and sights have long been associated with helping folks deal better with cognitive decline.
But what exactly is the connection between these noises and being able to live a better quality of life with dementia?

According to the study, listening to a personalized soundscape can help those with dementia by providing ‘clues’ regarding the time of day and place that otherwise may not be recognized.
The study also found that these personalized soundscapes improved sleep quality, and reduced agitation, anxiety, and distress – all of which benefit the quality of life of dementia patients.
Researchers continue to study the effects of soothing, ‘personal’ sounds as a way to help treat (and even prevent) dementia.
In the meantime, listening to your own set of familiar sounds is actually easier than you think.
Did you know that a quick search on YouTube will yield all kinds of calming noises like rainfall, waves, birds singing, or even water flowing through a stream. You can listen to them on your computer or your smartphone.
