People in my family always wonder why I don't listen to music since I love it so much. The reason is that I cry most of the time I hear it. it moves me so much that it is an actual cramping feeling I get in my chest. I'm tired of crying no matter what the cause.
I'm very selective. I listen to space music which I find to be soothing and emotion neutral. It has its' own kind of beauty.
Listen to other music to block what you have in your head. It should be intense enough to grab your attention but not trigger your emotions. Like I said space music is about all that does this for me.
Of course this is obvious so you'll have done it already
