Singing is a good stressrelief and improves your immune system. Breathing is also increased while singing, this increases blood circulation. Furthermore, after singing for an hour, it is like having done physical activity. Several muscles are used while singing: in the upper body, core and back. Also the lungs and breathing muscles are trained by breathing from your diaphragm.

Antistress hormones and endorphines will increase in your body by singing, resulting in a happy feeling, increased antibodies in your bloodcirculation which is all beneficial for a better immune system. This is all shown by, among others, studies from Universities in Frankfurt and Göteborg.
