There are several reasons why playing the piano improves our lives, and we could go on and on about them, but we'll admit that we're prejudiced. Playing the piano has been shown to provide benefits that are supported by science. These are a handful:

Relief from Stress
It has been found that playing the piano has a positive effect on mental health. Those who are not musically inclined are more likely to experience anxiety and sadness than those who play the piano. Spending a few minutes each day playing can help lower blood pressure, increase positivity, and boost self-esteem.

Concentration Split
Playing the piano requires split attention, sometimes termed divided attention, which is a skill that improves focus. Playing the piano requires using both hands, reading sheet music, pressing the pedals, and paying attention to the notes being played. It's a lot to handle all at once! When you master split focus at the piano, you'll discover that it also significantly enhances your ability to multitask outside of the piano.

It's simple to play!
It is not difficult to play the piano, in contrast to other instruments. Learning to play the piano doesn't cause any bodily pain. Learning to play a brass or woodwind instrument requires learning how to use your lips and facial muscles to make music, just as learning to play the guitar requires developing calluses on your fingers. Both are frequently uncomfortable and have the power to discourage students who would otherwise be eager to study. All you need to do to play the piano is sit down and hit a key.

Neuroplasticity
A brain's neuroplasticity refers to its capacity to create and rearrange synaptic connections, particularly in reaction to new information, past experiences, or damages. Said another way, neuroplasticity is the brain's capacity to alter form and function, particularly in response to physical stimulation.
The brain is positively altered when one plays the piano! Research indicates that music activates the brain differently than any other activity. You are forming new neural connections in your brain as you play the piano, preparing it for other types of communication. Thus, even though you may believe that you are only practicing a particularly challenging piano piece, you are also honing your communication, language, memory, spatial, math, and even voice expressiveness skills.

Your physical health will benefit from it.
Playing the piano regularly has several health benefits, both mental and bodily. As a result, one's dexterity, hand-eye coordination, and fine motor skills are all enhanced. Additional benefits of music include a lowered heart rate and breathing rate, an increase in the immunological response, a decrease in blood pressure, and a prevention of cardiac problems. As an added bonus, playing the piano will give you stronger arms and hands than the typical individual.

Enhancement of Aural Awareness
Is your ear for music innate, or do you suffer from tone deafness? No matter your aural range, playing the piano can enhance your overall hearing. Tones, intervals, chords, and pitch can all be better understood and played with practice on the piano. Also, your starting age is irrelevant! Taking up the piano or playing an existing instrument is a great way to enhance your hearing abilities at any age.
Is the ability to hear crucial in any field other than music? Of course! If you have problems hearing in noisy environments, learning to recognise and grasp the patterns of other languages' sounds becomes much easier with good auditory awareness. It can also help combat dyslexia in its early stages.

Human Growth Hormones (HgH)
(From WebMd) The pituitary gland is responsible for producing human growth hormone. In kids and teens, it sets off a developmental spurt. Muscle and bone development, fluid balance, glucose and lipid metabolism, and even cardiac function may all be regulated by it.
Research has shown that children whose bodies participate in piano lessons tend to have higher levels of HgH. Gaining access to growth hormones through piano lessons has the dual benefit of increasing stamina and decreasing the likelihood of age-related aches and pains.

Constructive feedback
Educators of the piano provide their students with both encouraging words and helpful commentary. Although it is never pleasant to hear constructive criticism, teaching students to accept criticism constructively in modest increments over time helps them to do just that. Every part of life, from relationships to job to school, benefits from this capacity to respond to and grow from criticism.

Experience Life to the Fullest
This perk is more debatable than the others, but bear with us. Both the listener and the player of the piano can experience intense feelings when listening to or performing piano music. The piano's ability to evoke profound feelings of joy, sadness, and awe is not surprising given its intended purpose of reflecting human emotion and sensation.

The best part about playing piano music is that it's easy to share with those you care about. Regardless of one's age, race, nationality, etc., music can communicate with everybody. In addition to bringing people together in bigger groups, it also works wonderfully for smaller gatherings of family and friends.
