Increasing mental capacity

In this episode, we explore how music profoundly supports language learning by shaping memory, focus, and emotional engagement. Happy music increases dopamine, boosting motivation and vocabulary recall. Sad music deepens introspection, making grammar and writing easier to master. Neutral background music enhances attention for reading and listening. Steady rhythms improve fluency and pronunciation, while tempos around 60–80 BPM align with optimal brainwave states for learning. Finally, metronomes and chimes help structure study sessions and sustain focus. Music becomes not just background noise but a powerful partner in your journey to fluency.

こんにちは。Japanese Happy Life Podcast のゆりです。このPodcast は、日本語を勉強しているみなさんのためのPodcast です。
この音楽はきいたとこがありますか？これは日本の正月によく聞く音楽です。尺八（しゃくはち）と、琴（こと）という楽器を使って曲を弾いています。
今日は、日本の「正月」について話します。
”正月”とは、一年の中でも一番めでたい日で、一番特別な日です。１月１日から１月７日までを”正月”と呼びます。一年で一番日本らしいものが見ることができる日です。
たくさんの会社が１月１日から１月３日まで休みになります。
家族でゆっくり過ごす過程が多いです。正月は、汁物に”おもち”や”野菜”を入れた「雑煮」を食べます。入れる野菜やおもちにも意味があります。とてもおいしいです。みなさん、食べてみてください。
それから、正月になって初めて会う人には、特別な挨拶があります。
★「あけまして、おめでとうございます」★と言います。新しい年が始まりました。とてもめでたいです。「あけまして、おめでとうございます」を言います。
三井名さんも、2024年初めて会う人にはこの言葉を使ってください♪
では、今日はこれで終わります。最後まで聞いてくれてありがとうございます！！
