If you’ve ever been in a miserable mood and turned on your favorite music only to find the funk lifted after a minute or two, then you know the power music has to improve mood. However, the evidence that music boosts mood isn’t just anecdotal. Several studies have shown the impact music can have on an individual’s overall mood and behavior – both positive and negative.

One of the major ways that music can impact mood is the emotional ties that individuals have to it. For instance, listening to sad music can make you feel upset in the same way that listening to your favorite upbeat music can make you feel joyous. Consider listening to music through Beats Headphones. This is also why individuals who run or workout regularly create playlists to help them push through a strenuous workout. Some research has also found that music can be helpful in stimulating new neural connections and affecting mood in this manner.

Next, discover how music unites us all and creates a sense of community.
