A 2012 study by the Phillips Research Lab (NL) demonstrated that music listening in car influences the experienced mood while driving, which in turn can impact driving behaviour. Designed to be at the foreground of concentration, this playlist serves as the focal object for contemplation itself.

Listening to something as you sleep can help you doze off because it distracts you from the endless whirr of your thoughts. If you spend too many hours staring at your bedroom ceiling, turn your screen display low (or off), snuggle into bed and prepare for sleepytime!

For the longest, people have enjoyed combining food with music. Musicians performed during dinner parties in Roman times, and minstrels entertained dining guests at medieval banquets. Today musical accompaniment during meals is much more common, and the music played more varied, than ever before. 

If you are tempted to believe that all music is the same, and what you play doesn’t really affect your senses – think again.

Music is a powerful tool. It can boost your mood, change your mind, spark an emotion, and calm the soul … sometimes all at once.

Although meditation is traditionally done without music, the right songs can initially help clear your mind.

So if the crashing waves and soothing voices of British men and women on the many mindfulness apps don’t get you centered, try our Meditative Playlist curated by Sam Howell of World Wilde Waves.
