Whether you’re a karaoke pro or can’t carry a tune, breaking into song boosts your mood, releasing serotonin and oxytocin.
The human mind loves music, and it’s hard for the brain to feel anything but enthusiasm when you sing a favorite song out loud. While it’s no substitute for a healthy mental health regime, breaking out in song can temporarily boost your mood. What’s more, joining a choral or singing group can doubly benefit one’s mental health, regardless of singing ability, combating loneliness and sadness.
So start warming up those vocal chords because we’ve got opportunities worth singing about below.
