When I write and speak about stress management, I prefer to call it stress mastery. I prefer to call this stress mastery because why merely manage something when you can take the next step and master it?

Music has charms.....

It's been said that music has charms to sooth the savage beast.

While that may be true, I know for a fact that music has charms to soothe your savage stress.

I think there are very few times in my life when there is not some type of music playing. This is a life long habit. I remember my dad bugging me as a teenager asking me if my car would run if the radio was not on.

I did not know and did not care to find out.

Your stress mastery studio

Here are some great things about music and stress mastery:

1. You can listen anywhere - in the shower, at work, in the car, when you wake up, etc.

2. Since so many of us are frightened awake each morning by an alarm clock, why not wake to your favorite music?

3. You can choose music to match your mood. Some hard rock if you are frustrated and angry, perhaps followed by some smooth jazz to wind down.

4. It's no or low cost - when you are online, you can listen to almost any kind of music absolutely free at places such as itunes.com.

My challenge to you is to experiment and play with (pun intended) how you can use music to help you in mastering stress.

Happy listening.
