Listening to music which brings you joy increases blood flow to the brain. The science is in--the vascular endothelium expands blood vessels, and the brain gets more blood when we listen to music we love. So put on the headphones or crank up the speakers and feed your brain. And please share with us---what's your favorite joyful music? (mine are Earth, Wind and Fire, Tower of Power, and Bach!) Joan

Listening to your favorite music may be good for your cardiovascular system.
