This is the time of the year when it feels like the walls are caving in! There are year-end deadlines holiday parties and holiday shopping drawing near—Phew! How do you relax these days? How do you casually blow off some steam?
Would you believe me if I told you that music can be a wonderful cure-all (figuratively speaking, of course). Music can create a stimulating environment and can be the perfect sound track to helping you get through life. If we were you, we’d take every opportunity to listen to our favorite songs and jam like there’s no tomorrow.
Music is like a key to your soul. When you need motivation, music can help you get things done. When you clean for the holidays, listen to some music and enjoy yourself. Watch, the house will be sparkling before you even know it. You could even listen to music while you work out, it gets you in the zone.
Music is a great relaxant in two ways: One, you can listen to cool and calm music to soothe the inner beast that you wanted to unleash on your coworker today; or two, you can listen to music that gets you up and moving! Air guitar and dance your rage, anger, or stress away all throughout your place of solace. Not only will it calm you down, but it will release endorphins and you’ll get a work out. So let loose!
Say for example, perhaps your mind is just too exhausted for sleep, and you need to find some way to unwind before bed. Run yourself a nice hot bath with some lavender bath salts and play your favorite music. This would be a nice time for jazz or slow jams for the perfect evening of relaxation.
Or, say you wanted to keep your mind alive at work! We have all been there—the work day can be dreadfully slow. If your supervisor allows it, play some appropriate music and keep your mind stimulated. It’s better than going for an energy drink or another cup of coffee. Just be careful not to distract yourself from getting stuff done. Think of music as a mental message that can improve cognitive processes.
In other words, don’t let the world get to you. There are ways to safely escape your troubles without causing others and yourself harm. Music gives you the option to sink into relaxing meditation or focused motivations. It keeps you refreshed. Next time you’re stuck in traffic, don’t fret turn on the jams. Sing your heart out and you’ll find life easier. Tootles ^^
