Mini-Session 7: Music and Moods

Filed Under Guest Writer, Successful Blog | 46 Comments

Guest Speaker: Ellen Weber, PhD

Ever rolled out of bed like a Mack truck hit you – only to find a particular tune on the car radio suddenly unzipped new colors into your day? Both sleep and music can make or break a workday in ways that might surprise you. More surprising yet is the fact that you can juggle these two to serve you better.

So while music and sleep may shift your moods from calm to calamity you can shift them back, by music you play and by sleep patterns that avoid alarms while in the REM or deeper rapid eye movement stages. What music do you listen to and how do you awaken on an ordinary work day?

Thank you, Ellen!
