Listening to music while walking is also great because it helps distract your mind from physical activity, which can be tiring and difficult at times.
You might even consider jogging or hiking if you want to challenge yourself further or try some outdoor activities like kayaking, or cycling!

Listening to music while reading a book is another thing that people enjoy:

A great way to relax is taking a bath! You get the benefit of both worlds: you can enjoy your favorite music while also relaxing in warm water.
It’s good for the body, mind, and soul. Plus it’ll help ease any stress or anxiety so you feel refreshed afterward…
A portable, water-resistant Bluetooth speaker would be the best thing to bring into a bathtub. This way you’ll have music with you wherever you go, no matter how wet it gets!

Cooking is a great way to relax and feel good about yourself because you’re creating something new! There’s also the added benefit of eating what you cook which makes it even better 😀
However, with music playing in the background it might help lift your spirits so that you have more energy to do all those dishes or knead dough! You’ll get lost in the moment and time will pass without notice until someone asks if dinner’s ready.

Music can help you relax and sit still for a bit. For some of us, it’s hard to do this because we have so much energy or want to always be doing something!
But if you give yourself time to just chill then your mind will feel more refreshed afterward. It’ll allow all those ideas that are swirling around in there to come together into one big thought bubble.
Sometimes crashing on the couch with a good song is the best way to relax after a stressful day.

Drinking alcohol is another fun activity for many people! And there are plenty of times when listening to music goes with drinking too – whether it’s at home alone while cooking dinner, out with friends at a bar/club, or just hanging around in someone’s backyard…
So why not listen to tunes while enjoying a beverage? You could pick songs that fit specific emotions based on what kind of drink you’re having (i.e.: upbeat and lively if you have tequila shots).
Note: Starting to drink alcohol at a young age can hinder the development of the brain's structure and functioning.

Shopping is one of those activities that rarely gets me excited. My wallet hates me every time I head out the door so all my money disappears like magic :))
Others enjoy shopping though and it can be a very fun experience!
It definitely beats getting dragged around by kids all day long. And if you listen to music then it might help pass the time more quickly (or distract your attention from how much money’s flowing right out of your wallet).

Many board games don’t require much in the way of interaction except to roll a dice or move your token. So you can just sit back and relax while listening to music!
Whether it’s classics like Monopoly, Yahtzee, Sorry!, Scrabble, Clue, or even playing trivia games with friends, all these can be combined with great tunes which will make them that much better.
The whole family can get involved too – it’s great for bonding and will help kids learn to listen (and follow) along with music more.

Meditation has been known for centuries as a good method of relaxation and reflection. And many people meditate with music as it can help keep their minds focused and on track. White noise is also often used for this purpose since the sound is consistent and blocks out distractions.
If you’re curious about this then why not give it a try? It’s pretty simple to do: just sit or lie down, turn on some tunes, close your eyes, and focus only on the sounds around you. You might be surprised by what’s going through your head…

Writing is something many people struggle with. I’m sure all of us have had moments where we want to bang our heads against a wall out of frustration because words aren’t coming together properly.
If writing is one of those activities that you struggle with, maybe listening to music will help you along. The right tunes could be the spark you need to get your thoughts onto paper…
Similar to studying and reading, relaxing/classical music is often recommended for writers; or music that has a steady beat to keep you focused.

Surfing the web is always a great way to kill some time! Whereas you’re buying stuff, reading an interesting article, learning a new skill, or just watching cute cat videos – the list of possibilities is endless!

Art is something we all have inside us… But it can be hard to release especially if you’re not creative and don’t know where to start. You could just look at other people’s work for inspiration or get into a community that helps improve your skills (art communities, art classes, YouTube tutorials).
It doesn’t matter what kind of art you do either – drawing/painting, writing poems/stories, sculpting claymation figures/action figures; even cooking food in weird shapes! Just make sure you enjoy yourself while doing whatever activity makes it possible.
