Imagine you're feeling sad, and then your favorite song starts playing, suddenly you feel happy again! That’s because music can help your brain feel good. Music has rhythm and melody, which are like the heartbeat of a song. When people hear music they know or love, it reminds them of happy times or special memories. That makes their brains light up with joy.
Examples
- A kid hears a song their mom sings every night, it makes them feel safe.
- A person hears an old song from their youth and starts dancing like they used to.
