How To Get HappyWant happiness? Try music. Music activates parts of the brain that can trigger happiness, releasing endorphins similar to the ways that sex and food do. Music can also relax the body, sometimes into sleep, as it stimulates the brain’s release of melatonin.
A study of older adults who listened to their choice of music during outpatient eye surgery showed that they had significantly lower heart rates and blood pressure, and their hearts did not work as hard as those who underwent surgery without music. A second study of patients undergoing colonoscopy showed that listening to their selection of music reduced their anxiety levels and lessened the dosage required for sedation.
Case in point, listen to this song and try not to start immediately salsa dancing. It’s absolutely impossible to listen to this song and not start instantly dancing.
