If you can't find the focus to complete the task at hand, you may want to use audio to help you concentrate.

If you need to work or study, some sounds can be beneficial. Certain types of music can help you block out noise. Music makes you more creative and productive, depending on what you are listening to. It is possible to relieve stress by listening to music.

We are taking a look at three types of audio, all readily available on YouTube, that you can use as background noise when you are trying to concentrate.

Classical music 

Classical music can be relaxing or stimulating. Dopamine can be released by listening to classical music. Dopamine prevents the release of stress hormones. It's easier to study and work with a better mood.

The idea that classical music might improve intelligence has stayed with us over time, even though it only measured one type of spatial intelligence and not general intelligence. Use it if it works for you.
