In those times, try music. Music has a unique, almost unearthly way of calming our spirits, lifting our hearts, and giving us joy that we could not find any other way. Choose one of your favorite songs and let it do the talking. Meditate to it’s melodies and harmonies as they work together to make something beautiful. Let the sounds vibrate your ear drums and ricochet down your entire body. Let it lift you away from your current place on earth and cover you with calm. It really works. Try it.

Where words fail, music speaks. —Hans Christian Andersen
