Whether you love to belt out tunes at karaoke or just sing in the shower, it turns out that singing can be good for both physical and mental health. And you don't even have to be good at it!
无论您是喜欢在卡拉 OK 中大声高唱还是只是在淋浴时唱歌，事实证明唱歌对身心健康都有好处。而且您甚至不必擅长它！
The physical and mental advantages of singing are caused by a combination of factors, according to Baishali Mukherjee from the World Federation of Music Therapy. He told BBC Future, "The physical exertion involved in singing – filling of our lungs, the firm control of our vocal cords, the movements of our mouth and body – is among the reasons why it can boost our mood." Hitting all the notes involves breathing control and the use of the diaphragm. This can lead to an increase of oxygen intake and lung capacity.
世界音乐治疗联合会的 Baishali Mukherjee 表示，唱歌对身心的好处是由多种因素共同造成的。他告诉 BBC Future，“唱歌所涉及的体力消耗——充盈我们的肺部、坚定地控制我们的声带、我们嘴巴和身体的运动——是它可以提升我们情绪的原因之一。”击中所有音符涉及呼吸控制和隔膜的使用。这会导致氧气摄入量和肺活量的增加。
Also, apparently, singing in a group brings just as many benefits as singing solo. It has been estimated that over 2.2 million people in Britain now regularly sing in a choir. A choir can be amateur or professional and is made up of people who sing together, often in harmony with different people singing different parts, such as soprano or tenor, according to their vocal range.
此外，显然，集体唱歌带来的好处与独唱一样多。据估计，英国现在有超过 220 万人定期在合唱团唱歌。合唱团可以是业余的，也可以是专业的，由一起唱歌的人组成，通常由不同的人根据他们的音域演唱不同的部分，如女高音或男高音。
A 2022 University of Vienna study found that choral singing enhances feelings of trust and bonding among a group, which can help with depression and loneliness. And, aside from mood-boosting, other proven mental health benefits of singing include a lowering of stress and anxiety levels due to the release of endorphins – the so-called 'happy hormones'.
维也纳大学 2022 年的一项研究发现，合唱可以增强团队之间的信任感和凝聚力，这有助于缓解抑郁和孤独感。而且，除了提升情绪外，唱歌的其他经证实的心理健康益处包括由于释放内啡肽（所谓的“快乐荷尔蒙”）而降低压力和焦虑水平。
So, whether you are a confident vocalist or not, give singing a go! You don't need an instrument because that's you. And yes, you might forget the lyrics or sound a little out of tune, but remember, there are a wealth of positives.
所以，不管你是不是一个自信的歌手，都试试唱歌吧！你不需要乐器，因为那是你。是的，您可能会忘记歌词或听起来有点跑调，但请记住，有很多积极因素
