(NPR) When we listen to music all we think about is how great the music is, but we never think about all the health benefits that it can bring us. Listening to music is proven to lower stress and anxiety levels. Science has also been able to conduct studies that connect listening to music and making our immune system stronger when fighting germs and bacteria. Once the music starts playing, chemicals such as dopamine are released throughout our body. The release of dopamine is proven to increase attention in the frontal lobes, but in the limbic system it’s pleasurable. (CNN) Scientist believes that this is the cause of why we start tapping our feet along to the music. The release of these chemicals is also why music feels just as good as having sex, or having a good time.”
