Everyone needs to find a healthy way to get these feelings out whether it be working out, drawings, writing, the possibilities are endless you just have to find what works for you. Personally I have find music to be a great way to not only express yourself but to manage your stress and feelings also. Music is my therapy whether it's yelling along to a song when I'm angry or singing along to a happy song music stimulates your brain in so many positive ways. Music can alter your thinking, stimulate positive brain activity, and even help you understand and percieve emotions better.

Music can tell us so much about ourselves and I'm just going scratching the surface of the benefits of music in this article, but let's jump in.

Music has always been a great wonder for scientist, wondering why it effects us like it does. No matter what music you listen to if effects all our brains in the same way when we listen to it. This is a reaction of chemicals being released Dopamine. This is the brains happy drug, and there are two key times this is released when listening to music; during the anticipation for a song and the peak emotional time in the song such as maybe during the bridge or chorus. Music is great and safe way to make your brain happy.

There have been so many studies on the effects that music has on our moods, almost all being positive. Music can not only change your mood it can be a great outlet to express your feelings. We listen to sad songs when we're sad, happy songs when we are happy, and angry sounds when we are mad and that is because music can help us feel those feelings and express them. Whether it's crying along to a sad song or screaming to an angry one music is a great tool.

Such as improving your memory, helping develop patience, social, listening and other skills like such. It can help reduce stress and help you express yourself; the benefits are endless.

All around music promotes happiness and so much more. When people say music saves lives I believe them, throughout my life for the good and the bad there has always been a song for it. I think music makes us feel less alone, especially when we find a song we really relate too, it let's us know that we are not the only ones that feel this way. Music bring people together in so many ways; Music is powerful.
