Years before starting seeing my T, I knew that under no circumstances am I allowed to listen to Dead Kennedys whilst driving And if my favourite singer is played in a shop I can end up a giggling excitable child pushing the trolly up the aisles! Im beginning to realise just how much I use music to get through the day in some sort of coherent manner - (and how much it can throw me out, too!) Does anyone else have this?
music doesnt usually do it for me. Im a physical type person so what works for me are things like canoeing, taking a walk, camping, spending time with my wife and children, a shower, painting, drawing, sculpting, yoga, marshal arts, .... In short anything that grounds and puts me back in touch with the present moment and my body.
