Want to feel happier and be more productive?

Research shows that when we don’t know what song is coming next, the pleasure centers of our brain light up. And every time there’s a musical surprise – which happens every 3 or 4 minutes - we get a flood of feel-good brain chemicals. They not only perk up our mood, they improve our memory and help us solve complex problems.
