Music, Mindfulness, and Meditation: Top 10 playlist for Yoga
Music is a terrific stimulant for the brain. Music makes everything better, don’t you think so? The right kind of music really sets your mood and keeps you calm. Every music or playlist can be defined by a person’s mood, behaviour, energy levels and vibes. When a person is feeling energetic, the songs will automatically be happy, groovy and peppy, but, if the person is working or writing, they might prefer songs with no lyrics and listen to soulful instrumental – jazz or low-fi music. Did you know that there are many proven psychological benefits of listening to music while doing yoga which can be very powerful & help many of us cope up with the daily stress, emotional health and mental well-being?
