Turning the "Noise" Down: Regulating Through Music Series

Do you find yourself overstimulated, feeling anxious, irritable, or have a hard time focusing in different day to day scenerios!? If so, you are not alone and this is the episode is for you. 

In this episode, you will discover how different types of music can help regulate different moods and your nervous system in different situations. The right music can help your brain feel safer and calmer. I share how I use music to move through different tricky tasks and transitions, as well as give tips on how you can embed music in so many different ways too! Creating different safe playlists to go along with your daily routine of to dos is a great idea too! 

• Calming playlist for overwhelm
• Using music during transitions
• Music for morning or bedtime routines
• Using music for activation and momentum when a task feels tedious

You will discover that lyrics and tempo affect emotions and use music to regulate your mood. This is a great jumpstart to heighten your self-awareness around how music affects you. We even use the analogy of music being like a dimmer switch for our busy brains, instead of the on and off switch we tend to have.
