Have you ever felt blah and then your favorite song comes on and suddenly you feel like dancing? A smile immediately comes on your face and now you just feel happy! I was in my car driving to work and a new favorite song came on. Immediately my demeanor changed and I was just singing along with the radio and bopping to the beat. People in the car next to me at the red light must have thought I was crazy to be this chipper so early in the morning. Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t consider myself to be much of a morning person until after I’ve had my breakfast. I just couldn’t help myself and I just allowed the music to take hold of me.
Sometimes you need not care who’s looking.
Today I am reminded that music can be a powerful tool. It can set the tone for your day and change your mood. It can spark creativity and provide focus. It can motivate you to move. It can inspire. Music can help you gain clarity. Music sets a wonderful tune to your attitude and the atmosphere around you.
I love all different kinds of music. When I need to feel calm or to relax my mind, I often find classical music helps me. I gain a clear head and then I can write. What kind of music helps you? Find your favorite tune to suit your mood. Do you want to be energized? Seek some up-tempo beats. If you don’t feel like cleaning, perhaps putting on your favorite dance music can turn that unappealing chore into a party.
Music can be a source of balance. So if you are having a crazy kind of day, just put on your favorite song and find your joy, peace and/or calm and be well.
