Therapeutic Music

[spathiphyllum]

Do you ever use music for therapeutic reasons? If so, feel free to offer examples.

Melancholy? Uplifting? Depressing? Heavy? I believe music can help change your personal vibration.

Yes, I listen to DSoTM....LOUD....with the lights switched off now and again. It resets my brain.

Pink floyd is powerful, let alone dark side of the moon. Nice one ZM.

[spathiphyllum]

the first 1/4 of endless river is a beaut.

[Zacs-Master]

Indeed. WYWH is quite theraputic but it doesn't resonate with the fibre of my being like DSoTM.

And then one day you'll find
Ten years have gone behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

Zacs. I do hope you have either very good soundproofing or very deaf neighbours.

Nothing worse than someone else's music blaring through the walls.

("Yes, I listen to DSoTM....LOUD....)

Bangers.. I love their whole discography.

[spathiphyllum]

DSoTM can only be listened to loudly. Else how will you hear it?

[woofgang]

no, if I listen to music when I an miserable I associate it with the misery and never want to hear it again.

[bainbrig]

Through headphones?

[spathiphyllum]

That's interesting Woof

[Zacs-Master]

I live in a detached house bainbrig.

[spathiphyllum]

OOO posh boy ;) ;) ;) ( i kid)

[Zacs-Master]

Ain't it strange how some will just assume something to have a completely tangential 'dig' at a poster?

[Mamyalynne]

I use music as therapy but not to wallow, most definitely to rage or have a good old clear out of frustration.

Volume can figure in that but I often relent after a few bars and turn it turn a notch.

[bainbrig]

Zacs. I hope your allusion (“Ain't it strange how some will just assume something to have a completely tangential 'dig' at a poster?”) isn’t aimed at me? Me having a go at loud music isn’t tangential or oblique - it is heartfelt!

And I look forward in general to your comments, which are usually liberal and thoughtful.

[Zacs-Master]

It might be heartfelt, bainbrig, but it's missplaced for the reason i gave at 12:55.

Thanks for the comments tho.

[bainbrig]

Zacs... which I now know. Pre 1255 I didn’t.

[Zacs-Master]

Erm....it was there for you to read.

[ChillDoubt]

I consider riding my bike as therapy and I have a specific playlist to keep me motivated.
I don’t use earphones(only an idiot would do so whilst riding in traffic) but an old phone mounted on my handlebars.
It certainly does the trick.

wasn't there a Man Utd fan who used to listen to Leonard Cohen music to cheer himself up?
