Entry #8 The Power of music
Look back on a time when a song stood out to you, would you say it made you feel sad, happy, excited, or angry? These are examples of how music can make us feel. Music has the power to transport us to another world, to make us feel things we never thought possible, and to connect us with people we've never even met. Whether it's the beat of a drum, the strum of a guitar, or the melody of a piano, music has a way of touching our souls and bringing us together. There is also science behind the music, there is a reason a song can make you feel a certain way. We can see this with slow songs compared to fast songs, the vibrations are different, therefore, there is a different sensation towards different music. Music can be used to heal the soul and physical health. Music therapy is used to improve blood flow in the brain and lower cortisol levels. It is used to boost moods, sleep better, improve motivation, and so on. Music has a way of touching our souls and bringing us together.
ReplyDeleteI agree that music can define a lot about a person. I also agree that music allows you to enter a different world, like you said. I agree with you because when Christmas is around the corner, it makes me feel happy and reminds me of when we had big parties as a family on Christmas. I feel like I'm there in the memory.
Hi Glorianel! I loved your blog. It was interesting to learn about how music can help with blood flow in your brain and lower ones cortisols levels. And I definitely agree with how music can help define a person. For me personally, the type of music I listen to depends on my mood. It can range from indie to R&B to even rock. And sometimes my music changes when it is a cloudy or rainy day.
ReplyDeleteHello! I enjoyed reading this blog, its spot on how music speaks more than emotionally. It does say what and how we feel and helps us share that with someone else. Music is a great way to express ourselves and helps us feel better too.
ReplyDeleteHello Glorianel, I love your blog and how it turned out. I would definitely agree that music can influence our personalities. I’ve noticed that usually when people dress a certain way, they are more likely to listen to certain genres. Bricely Amador
