Calm Practice

Music

Music can change your mood!

Here are some suggestions of different music genres to listen to depending on your current mood.

• Gently uplifting music when you are feeling sad, flat, stuck or unmotivated.
• Super upbeat dance music when you are feeling like you need to move some energy, dance and shake and lift yourself up.
• Calming music when you are anxious, angry or panicky.
• Chilled-out background music when you want to feel relaxed and focused.
• Sad music when you need to let go, cry and feel your feelings.
• Powerful music when you need a boost of confidence.
• Binaural beats when you are feeling anxious or you need a calmer, more focused state of mind.
