Your Happiness Playlist - Karson McGinley

If you are blessed with ears that hear, there is high chance you have experienced the power of music to affect your mood innumerable times in your life. From the song you sang as a toddler learning the alphabet, to the song you danced to at your senior prom, music has an impeccable way of jogging the memory and tugging at your heartstrings.

While almost everyone has a song or two that makes them feel happy, did you know that science has shown that listening to positive music with the intention of feeling happier actually improves happiness levels? 

There are different kinds of happiness of course, so below you will find three distinct playlists of happiness inducers, aimed at meeting you where you are and raising your vibration from there.
