July 2024 Week 2

Who else is fascinated by the sciency aspect of things?

I find it super cool to learn about how things and people function and go through unique processes.

That's what we'll be looking at today with music and how it activates areas of the brain!

Like Decha was discussing in our video, music is scientifically proven to activate the parts of our brains with roles in memory formation and emotional processing.

She specifically points out that the hippocampus and amgdyla are stimulated and play an important part in how music affects us!

Isn't that so cool?!

Watch this cute illustrated video for more detail on this process!

Thanks for attending my mini science lesson;)

I've got some fun goodies for next week, until then!

P.S. This article from Durham University is a nice quick read on why music recalls memories!
