With respect, the questions in your survey don't seem very well formulated to return the clearest information.

• Age?

• Male or Female?

• Does music impact your stress levels? x300

Binary gender option is a bit outdated unless the OP wants to exclude some people.

Equally inappropriately (IMO) quasi-binary/boolean are questions like

> Imagine you were to go shopping, would the music playing throughout the store make you feel calm?

It takes no account of the type of music affecting a negative/positive answer. Pachelbel's 'Canon in D' may have a more calming effect than Extreme Noise Terror's 'Am I a Punk Yet?'.

Are we to guess what kind of music will play? Are we to try to give an answer that covers all styles?

I mean, it's not my problem. Just offering constructive criticism. I would guess that people doing polls would want their questions to be clear and to return the most informative answers.

What stores do you shop in that play anything more exciting than soft rock? The only places I’ve ever heard like punk, metal, or anything that may be stress enduring would be like record stores, skate shops, or places where that type of music is part of the culture/identity.

The questions are too general? Answered as best I could but many of my answers would have been “depends on the music”. Like, Metallica, Kate Bush, and Beethoven are all music but I’d have very different reactions for each of them.
