Listen "How Sounds Shape Your Hormones"
Episode Synopsis
In this Earvangelism episode, we dive into one of the most fascinating intersections in auditory science: how the sounds we hear — especially spoken words — trigger powerful hormonal responses in the brain and body.We break down how hearing is not just a mechanical process but a deeply emotional and neurochemical experience, influencing everything from bonding and calm to motivation, stress and behaviour. From dopamine to oxytocin, cortisol to endorphins, this episode gives a mini highlight of each of these and how the meaning you make of what you hear affects them.Finally, we wrap up with a powerful message:Every sound you produce is shaping someone’s neurochemistry. So what experience do you want your words to create?
