Would you like to boost your IQ?

Probably a silly question. So moving on quickly, in this podcast episode I will introduce another technique that will help improve your IQ. This is, of course, backed up by science.

In a previous episode of the Real Fast Spanish tips podcast, I talked about improving your brain with exercise. Well in this tip there will a different approach. This approach is also likely to be of use because it involves improving your IQ.

In this episode, I’m going to introduce something known as the Mozart Effect. If you have never heard of the Mozart Effect before, it may be strangely intriguing to you that you can improve your brain simply by listening to music.

For me, this doesn’t come as a huge surprise because music has a profound effect on us. When we listen to sad music it tends to make us sad. When we listening to happy music it tends to make us happy. Music with a heavy bassline and beat tends to make us want to dance.

So in this episode, I will introduce the topic, I will refer to two resources (listed below) and then I will play about 30 minutes of Mozart.
