Turn it up!

The Power of music speaks volumes and can amplify your happiness! 

Isn’t it amazing how hearing a particular song can bring back a special memory and make you feel happy, calm, or totally pumped?! Human beings are born with the ability to acknowledge the difference between music and noise.(WOW) Our brains are so beautifully engineered, that they have unique pathways for processing different parts of music; including pitch, melody, rhythm, and tempo. Music with a fast tempo tends to increase your heart rate and breathing, (plus, greater likelihood of an unexpected breakdance session) ...while slower music tends to produce the opposite effect, and can help you chill out! 

While the effects of music on people are not fully understood, studies show that when you hear music you like, the brain releases a chemical called dopamine that has positive effects on mood. According to various research, music may very well have the power to improve our health and well-being.
