About this listen
In this episode, we dive into the BRECVEM model — a framework by psychologist Patrik Juslin that explains the seven ways music stirs our emotions, from goosebumps and tears to nostalgia and pure joy. I’ll walk you through each mechanism, from brain stem reflexes and rhythmic entrainment to memory and musical expectancy, showing how songs can hijack our minds in surprising ways. Whether you’re a musician, a music lover, or just curious about why that one track always hits you in the feels, this episode breaks down the science behind the magic.
