There’s a song that’s been proven to reduce anxiety by 65%. It’s called Weightless by Macaroni Union, and it was specifically designed to slow your heart rate, reduce blood pressure, and lower cortisol levels. It’s so effective that it’s dangerous to drive while listening to it because it can make you drowsy. Source Source 2 Source 3

I knew within seconds that I’d heard this before.

It was one of the first Tumblr posts I favorited.

Sound therapists and Manchester band Marconi Union compiled the song. Scientists played it to 40 women and found it to be more effective at helping them relax than songs by Enya, Mozart and Coldplay. Weightless works by using specific rhythms, tones, frequencies and intervals to relax the listener. A continuous rhythm of 60 BPM causes the brainwaves and heart rate to synchronise with the rhythm: a process known as ‘entrainment’. Low underlying bass tones relax the listener and a low whooshing sound with a trance-like quality takes the listener into an even deeper state of calm. Dr David Lewis, one of the UK’s leading stress specialists said: “‘Weightless’ induced the greatest relaxation – higher than any of the other music tested. Brain imaging studies have shown that music works at a very deep level within the brain, stimulating not only those regions responsible for processing sound but also ones associated with emotions.” The study - commissioned by bubble bath and shower gel firm Radox Spa - found the song was even more relaxing than a massage, walk or cup of tea. So relaxing is the tune, apparently, that people are being Rex advised against listening to it while driving. The top 10 most relaxing tunes were: 1. Marconi Union - Weightless 2. Airstream - Electra 3. DJ Shah - Mellomaniac (Chill Out Mix) 4. Enya - Watermark 5. Coldplay - Strawberry Swing 6. Barcelona - Please Don’t Go 7. All Saints - Pure Shores 8. AdelevSomeone Like You 9. Mozart - Canzonetta Sull’aria 10. Cafe Del Mar - We Can Fly

One of the comments suggests pairing it with Rainymood.

The combined calm might be weaponized with adding this song and some crackling fire.

To anyone who says Captain Marvel is “Too feminist”

That scene where Carol gets Cat Called? That’s happened to me.

That scene were she’s told she can’t persue her career because she’s a woman? That’s happened to me.

You know that scene where’s she’s told to control her emotions? That’s happened to me.

You know that scene where she’s told she has to prove her worth for no reason? That’s happened to me.

These aren’t feminist things. These are just female experiences. Get your heads out of your asses and learn to relate to women for FUCK’S SAKE.

Hace unos dias vi una serie de gifs de Marie Kondo explicando que a la hora de ordenar nuestra ropa debemos elegir la que nos produce felicidad, y para no sentirnos mal por la ropa que queremos botar, agradecer el tiempo que estuvo esa prenda estuvo con nosotros y dejarla ir..

Esto me llamo la atención y luego en Netflix descubri que habia una serie de ella, donde va a casas de personas y las ayuda a organizar. Me gusto su método y quise compartir algunos de sus consejos con ustedes. Quien sabe. Siempre se aprende algo 😉

“YOU ARE FREE!”

Dovid stopped for a moment to gather his thoughts. Was he really going to do this? He looked up at Ronit first, then at his wife. His childhood best friends. It was always the three of them, then Ronit left and it became him and Esti. 

He was angry for so long for the way the woman had left them behind to go to New York. He was mad and disappointed because of her actions before leaving, for making Esti “sick”. He thought she was the cause of everything and he treated her so bad when she appeared back in London to mourn her father. It was time to make it up to her. No, to both them, Ronit and Esti both. It was time to be the three of them again, like it‘d always been. Dovid took a deep breath, he looked briefly at the people around him and, then, up at Esti again. “You are free.” “You are free!” All of them were free to choose, that was His will.

Ronit was free to live the life she wanted and it was wrong of them to judge her was her choices and to make her feel like she wasn’t even worthy of honoring her father. Esti was free to love who she loved. His child was free, he deserved to have a chance to decide what he wanted to do with his life. Even he himself was free to choose: in that moment he could be a Rabbi, Esti’s husband, or he could the best friend both women needed. 

So he chose.
