Sometimes you cannot empathize with a person or situation.
Or you might be struggling through a tough time and need a
compassionate voice. When this happens, Mohammed Aldandan
advises turning to music. So many artists reflect person
experiences in their work that listeners can understand
how that person is feeling and the gravity of the
situation. Or it can simply be a way to get through
your own difficulties.

Music truly is a universal language with remarkable
bonding properties. It marls some of the most important
events in our lives such as weddings, graduations, and
even funerals. Human beings are literally wired to be
affected by music. A recent discovery reveals that we
have a dedicated section of our brain to process music.
Listening and singing along to a track impacts
neurochemicals that play roles in our connections
to each other. While music serves an important
social and entertainment function in our lives,
it also has a biological role.

Not only does music create social closeness, but
it has also been linked to the release of endorphins
and dopamine which regulates mood. Music can create
a sense of individual or group identity. It does this
by creating a sense of belonging, generating associations
to a range of emotions, or help to cope with threats or
problems. Simply put, music connects people and solidifies
social relationships. Our ability to sync with music
increases as we ago, creating the emotional connections
we feel to certain melodies, rhythms, and lyrics.

Whether it be a bad breakup, the loss of a loved one, or anger over current socioeconomic
issues, there is a piece of music out that connects people to reality. Artists and musicians are
essentially messengers that connect people and help them through various life events. If you
need to celebrate, release pent up anger, or just have a good cry, Mohammed Aldandan
considers the right music to just the catalyst you need.
