Power Song

Power Song

Pick a song that makes you feel powerful, happy, empowered, inspired, and overall good.

After you have your song chosen, listen to it mindfully every day for two weeks. Mindfully, meaning not while you are doing the dishes, not while you are driving, not while you are doing anything else except listening to this song and focusing on how it makes you feel.

There are two main reasons for this intervention: One, it makes you practice mindfulness (being present in the moment). When we are being mindful, we are not depressed about yesterday or anxious about tomorrow. Two, it creates a positive emotional experience to this song so that in the future when you are having a tough day, you can play this song and your brain will remember this positive experience you have created.

After you have mastered this with one song, continue to add songs, eventually creating an entire power play list.
