A Playlist of Calm Songs
I have some ideas to share that will help you create a calm playlist when you need some quiet, relaxing music.
A few years ago, I started creating a calm playlist to listen to while I do my physical therapy stretches and when I’m trying to unwind at night.
Because of my POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), a form of Dysautonomia, my autonomic nervous system doesn’t function correctly, One of the symptoms I deal with is rapid heartbeat, which can make it especially hard to relax. Music isn’t a cure by any means, but its one of the tools in my toolbox (including medicine) that I can turn to.

Listen To The Winning Song From Our Contest! + Behind The Scenes Creating The Song
A little while ago, fellow blogger Melissa Miles and I held a contest for a chance to win a custom song if you subscribed to both our blogs. I am so excited to announce that the song is done and you can listen to it here!
I’ll also share the story that inspired the song and my thoughts on the collaborative process working with a musician as a lyricist for the first time. (Hint: It was awesome!)
Without further ado, here’s the song, This Love For Swing. I wrote the lyrics, and Melissa wrote the music and recorded the instruments and vocals.
