Self Music Therapy Collection

Why It Works

Everything we listen to affects us. The noises, horns, announcements, all get in there. What we put into our mind directly influences how we feel and behave.

If you have ever felt nervous or jumpy after the hustle and bustle of a commute or listening to hostile, titillating and souped-up assault of the mind; or maybe you’ve felt particularly energetic and positive after a relaxing hour of rest with beautiful music. Then you have real life experience of how your hearing can directly influence your inner being.

Music therapy is a clinical field that suggest the human mind has all the innate seeds to heal itself. Music therapists encourage their patients to utilize classical music, lifestyle changes, and being honest; to face their feelings for healthy and positive lives. As more and more people experience the benefits of therapeutic music remedies, this clinical field continues to grow.

Why It Begins

Modern people have been suffering from unimaginable stress. Every day the demands on our time grow and our patience shrinks. We are pulled in a hundred directions by a thousand responsibilities. We are constantly trying to do more, be more, plan better. The desire in us for a short ten-minute vacation is always there, at the back of our minds and in our hearts; but all is balanced on a toppling tower of needs and wants that always threatens falling.

‘Self Music Therapy Collection’ was developed in response to the rising problem of time shortage for reducing your undue stress that can possibly cause slight to serious mental diseases. Seeing the professional therapists in every single time when we feel overwhelming is not very realistic in our busy life. Due to the above reasons, using and taking benefits from ‘Self Music Therapy Collection’ is as easy and convenient as having anti-depressants or painkiller but doesn’t have any side effects. Just put your headphone in anywhere you want, and enjoy it.

You know it’s important to get away, to take some personal time. You also know that there is no time for slowing because if you can’t catch the subway, the taxi, the green lights you may lose your sale, your job, your marriage, your whatever. It feels so desperately important and also incredibly hopeless. Time is at a premium, and tranquility is a necessity. With this reality in mind, we designed this Self Music Therapy Collection as digital music files(In high quality WAV format – Same quality as physical music CDs) for your Smart-phone, Tablet PC and also your Desktop PC; take it with you on the subway, in a cab – from one place to another.

If you should feel so inclined, or if your heart is in need of some critical care then feel free to set aside as much time as you want to listen to beautiful therapeutic music and have the hustle and bustle of big city life, the stress from too much work, and the world itself wash right off of your shoulders. You’re not Atlas after all.

Can you find 5 to 10 minutes of found time? Can you spare a bit of your subway commute of thinking what you’re going to do at work and spend that time being fed a little bit of inspiration? Can you meditate on therapeutic & relaxing melodies in between calls or shifts or meetings? If you can, we are absolutely sure that chances are still yours.

Why It Should Be

Natural Defense for Mental Diseases by Undue Stress: Depression, anxiety, anger and headache are the most common complaints people complain of in the face of high stress and you face these everyday. At first, they start small and subtly but continue to grow bigger and bigger until they’re monstrous enough to eat you alive unless you try to manage them properly.

Pills have actually been used as a fast and convenient way to handle stress in modern times with extremely unforgiving time schedules regardless of their side effects. We feel however, that medication should be a last resort and offer this as either a first salvo or a companion to medical solutions.

‘Self Music Therapy Collection’ provides a carefully collected blend of more than 300 therapeutic classical music tracks that actively reconcile social stress, physical pain and suppressed negative feelings. Many of these classical music tracks are widely used to help mediate stress disorders as handy tools of therapists.

We recommend ‘Self Music Therapy Collection’ to any athlete, student, musician, actor, public speaker, business person, employer and employee who suffers from undue stress caused by a very competitive and stressful environment. You can try ‘Self Music Therapy Collection’ risk free for 60 days. ‘Self Music Therapy Collection’ is designed for use on a daily basis to reduce your stress and improve your mental and physical health during your ridiculously busy life. Many of our customers use our products to smash an exit out of the endless tunnel, the abyss of stress from oppressive careers, twisted or contorted relationships, and heart wrenching financial pressure.

Top 5 Depression Quotes

“Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.” 
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

“There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.” 
― Laurell K. Hamilton, Mistral's Kiss

“Whenever you read a cancer booklet or website or whatever, they always list depression among the side effects of cancer. But, in fact, depression is not a side effect of cancer. Depression is a side effect of dying.” 
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“The best thing for being sad," replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something. That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.” 
― T.H. White, The Once and Future King

“That's the thing about depression: A human being can survive almost anything, as long as she sees the end in sight. But depression is so insidious, and it compounds daily, that it's impossible to ever see the end.” 
― Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

Depression : Quotes

“The so-called ‘psychotically depressed’ person who tries to kill herself doesn’t do so out of quote ‘hopelessness’ or any abstract conviction that life’s assets and debits do not square. And surely not because death seems suddenly appealing. The person in whom Its invisible agony reaches a certain unendurable level will kill herself the same way a trapped person will eventually jump from the window of a burning high-rise. Make no mistake about people who leap from burning windows. Their terror of falling from a great height is still just as great as it would be for you or me standing speculatively at the same window just checking out the view; i.e. the fear of falling remains a constant. The variable here is the other terror, the fire’s flames: when the flames get close enough, falling to death becomes the slightly less terrible of two terrors. It’s not desiring the fall; it’s terror of the flames. And yet nobody down on the sidewalk, looking up and yelling ‘Don’t!’ and ‘Hang on!’, can understand the jump. Not really. You’d have to have personally been trapped and felt flames to really understand a terror way beyond falling.” 

David Foster Wallace

Certain Laws Of The Science Of Getting Rich

Self-help and personal improvement books have been gaining momentum for so long. Among all these books, topics on wealth creation and personal finance are the center of all these interest. However, some books just separate themselves from the substance that it presents rather than the form that most self-help books possess. The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles is definitely one of these books that hold much substance.

From the title, this book contends that there is an exact science in wealth creation which can be compared to the hard sciences today like chemistry in physics. Thus, there is an assumption that there are laws that guides the process of how to get rich and be financially free. This puts the pressure on the reader to follow the methods rather than the rhetoric. In addition, the reader is given the certainty that one can get rich with these laws.

Wattles wrote this at a time when the period of enlightenment is slowly turning into a period of modernism. That is why there are many parallel books about getting rich that is anchored on modernism; that is having a sense of certainty in achieving wealth if one focuses on a purpose and do everything to achieve it completely. In those times, people start working hard through failure to get things right. While today’s getting rich books talk about leveraging, The Science of Getting Rich is a treatise of creativity.

Bridging the Art and Science of Making Money

While this claims certainty, it is also much a philosophical book in its time. Wattles talks about the value of having a unified theory, which is a Hindu philosophy slowly entering the Western mind. The theses on wealth creation now lie where richness takes place in this universal system. Wattles therefore will tell you that everyone has the right to be rich in this system and he lays out the groundwork for people to achieve this right.

Wattles define the Science of Getting Rich as the advancement of man and development of life. People should have an affirmative attitude of getting rich as his right. Here, Wattles connect getting monetary wealth with the ability to acquire our basic needs while finding ways to grow individually.

Competitiveness VS Creativity

Perhaps the main principle of the book is the shift from competitiveness to creativity. This thought, again a highly Eastern thinking, states that people do not have to step on each other’s toes to get rich. Instead, it is our call to create. The will to create allows us to have a vision of what we want to do, a path to where want to go, and the motivation to continue to focus on creating wealth. Getting rich is therefore an exercise of clarity of the big picture and should not be regressed to small battles laid out by competition.

Wattles’ book weighs upon the advance of all. In a company, you have to give people more than you can take from him. This allows you and your peers to have the momentum to move forward. Remember, that in order for a business organization to grow, you have to take your people with you. Expansion for your selfish profit will leave you with more fools than smart people. This is an example of living the certain way and abiding under the law of attraction. To attract wealth is to be positive about it.

The Science of Getting Rich is a transcendent book with ideas that still applies today. Financial freedom is only possible if you are not guarded by your competition. Instead, your potential is without limit if you seek creativeness. This book pushes you to look forward instead of looking behind to your disappointing past or sideward to your grueling competitors. This change of perspective is what all people need today in a highly competitive world.

technically, motivation doesn't really exist. It's a combination of a whole bunch of things -- usually including some type of fear or intense desire.

The Best Depression Songs To Give Yourself Hope Again!

Depression can be a terrible thing to have to deal with and sadly in today's modern, stressful and oftentimes lonely world it is an emotional state that more and more people find themselves experiencing on a daily basis. One of the most therapeutic and helpful aids available to help you cope with depression and re-emerge in a more positive frame of mind is music. In the following article we will look at the best depression songs you can listen to, which will lift your spirit and restore hope in your life.

REM - Everybody Hurts

One of REM's most powerful songs that has helped and comforted millions of people with depression is "Everybody Hurts". The song's lyrics emphasize that it is normal to experience hurt and to struggle in life and that you need to not let yourself go, but instead to keep on going.

Going Under - Evanescence

Released in 2003 this song has been extremely helpful to listeners by helping them to understand that their feelings and emotions are understood at the deepest level. It captures the feeling perfectly when you just can't cope any more. The key is to listen closely to the song to help you release the emotions that have been eating away at you. In that way it can be extremely cathartic.

Not Afraid - Eminem

Since its release on YouTube this track has become one of the most viewed videos on the Internet of all time. Eminem provides a strong message of hope which has resonated with the wider world and inspired millions to move beyond their depression and make their way in the world again. This song was borne out of Eminem's own struggles with depression which reached an all-time low with drug addiction and the murder of one of his closest friends. This is an inspirational song that shows there is light at the end of the tunnel and that you can get through even the worst of situations.

The Show Must Go On - Queen

One of the most powerful songs ever recorded by perhaps the greatest rock band of all time, Queen. Freddie Mercury basically says that no matter what suffering, heartache or misfortune you have gone through, you simply have to keep on going. Struggling himself with serious illness at this time and a series of failed relationships Mercury encourages us to defy it all and insists that the "show must go on."

Depression is a serious illness and its toll on individuals should never be underestimated. However, it is something that you can get through and overcome with help and support. Listening to some of the best depression songs ever written can provide you with the comfort, solace and inspiration to move beyond this dark period of your life and make tomorrow a brighter day.

One of the best ways to get the most out of listening to depression songs is to do so while exercising. Exercising releases powerful feel-good endorphins and can, when combined with the therapeutic depression songs, help you overcome struggles and feel happy with your life and yourself once again.

Music Is a Great Tool for Dealing With Depression

Music is a very, very great tool - a lot more powerful that most people give it credit for. Music can make us laugh, let us cry or remind us of a particular event or person in our lives. Because of that, there's been a trend lately to try to cure or heal depression with music. Here are a several tips that can help someone dealing with depression get over it with the help of music.

Your first thought might be to go with happy, cheerful music. Because that music would alter your mood and all is solved, right? Well, I know that when I'm annoyed, and even dealing with depression, if I had to deal with a lively, happy song, I would like to punch someone. You like to gradually work your way out. At first, it's okay to confirm your feelings. Find a song that talks about what's on your mind. Usually, this is a "nothing's going right, there's no way out" song. Depending on how long you like to spend, it can even be a few songs. You don't like to stay there though. After that, search a "nothing's going right now, however perhaps there's a hope" song.

Then graduate to a "nothing's going right, however my head it up and it doesn't bother me because I do have hope" variety. You can more often than not search a good gospel song by Kirk Franklin, Hezekiah Walker or Marvin Sapp. However, the type of song is completely up to you, whatever fits your personal tastes. If you chose, you can even go a little further to an upbeat, peppy "Hey, everything's okay!" song. For me personally though, that's a bit much. I like to stop on the "Okay, I do have hope now" portion.

Make sure to lose those headphones! If you're dealing with depression, you already feel inaccessible in your own small world, so don't further that. Turn on your stereo and let just unwind in the music. Soak it in. Make sure you're wearing comfortable clothing, close your eyes, sit back and merely take the music in. Don't be bothered by anything else - focus totally on the words of the song and the beat. Go ahead and cry if you want to - depression needs an outlet. If you want to scream, go ahead.

Absolutely crying my heart out has been some of the best help for me. It feels like so much has been lifted from me when that's done. Connect to the words of the song - make it personal. Originally, relate to the deep depression of the song you started with. That way, you'll be able to relate to the second and third (even fourth) waves of music. When you're done, don't just jump back into the world. Stay there, rest and think about what you've just heard. You heard someone say there's hope and you put yourself in that condition, visualizing your own hope.

There's a very powerful relationship among your brain and your physical body, so if you like to spent an hour with this method, you're going to feel at least a little better if you genuinely go with it. Obviously, if you like to stay stuck in depression, you will. However, if you're looking for a way out, some music therapy will help. Try a little music therapy for your own depression, or pass it along to a big name else who is struggling. Either way, it's a technique that will help.

Are You Depressed? How a Song Saved My Life

Some of you may wonder why I'm so passionate about helping young people live their purpose. It all started back in 1995. After years of attending a lame catholic grade school and middle school, I made the jump to public high school.

High school was going to be awesome: no more cheesy uniforms, playing football, lots of girls, easy classes, hanging out with cool public school kids. I had it made, except that:

·         My clothes were lame.

·         I was pummeled on the football field - everyone went through puberty before me.

·         Girls were not to impressed with the puny kid with nerd-goggles.

·         Easy classes are boring classes.

·         The cool public school kids? Not so cool when they leave you out.

Yes, I was a loser. How did I not know this? Then one morning my alarm goes off and I'm cranky and say, "Uhh, why do I have to get up this morning?"

Wham!

Why do I have to get up? To go to school. And then? To get good grades. And then? Go to college. And then? Get more good grades. And then? Get a job. And then? Have a family. And then? Retire. And then? Die. Wait a minute! I'm going through all this work just to die!? No way. Why would anyone go through all this pain to die? If this's all there is, the smart thing would be to blow your brains out, right?

Whoa.

That idea scared me, but I couldn't shake it: If this is all there is, the smart thing is to end it now. I'm a smart guy, but kill myself, really, that's the smartest thing I can do?

Next day my alarm goes off and I wake up to this:

Rain, rain, on my face. Hasn't stopped raining for days. My world is a flood. Slowly I become one with the mud. But if I can't swim after 40 days and my mind is crushed by the crashing waves, lift me up so high that I cannot fall, lift me oh oh, lift me up.

That was different.

A cry from the heart for someone to lift me up. I gave it a try. I pleaded from my heart for God to show me there was something more to life. You know what? It made a difference. No, my life did not magically get better. I didn't have a growth spurt right away or become Mr. Popular. But I did discover that God is a Father who loves me, who sent His Son Jesus Christ to save me, and who created me with a specific purpose in mind. I discovered my life had a meaning, and now I get to help young people every day discover who God is for them, His purpose for their life, and how they can make a difference in the world. God bless. Live from your heart.

Natural Methods to Fight Depression Symptoms - 5 Natural Treatments

Depression impacts many people at one time or another in life. Symptoms can include loss of hope, persistent feelings of sadness, loss of energy, loss of enjoyment of previously enjoyed activities, and changes in sleep and eating habits. If the case of depression is severe, it may be necessary to consider a pharmaceutical approach, but for milder cases, natural methods are often successful in managing symptoms. Here are 5 natural treatments for combating depression:

1.  Eat healthy foods. Choose foods that are as raw and unprocessed as possible, including fresh fruits, vegetables, proteins, and whole grains. If your appetite is suffering as a result of your emotional state, try carrying around healthy snack foods that you can eat small amounts of throughout the day. Jerky and nuts are good choices. If you tend to eat too much in reaction to emotional upset, try setting a time to stop eating in the evening, and be especially careful not to eat while distracted, like when watching television.
2. Take appropriate vitamins and supplements. Your natural health practitioner can advise you as to the ideal supplement cocktail, but many people can benefit from fish oil and a food based multivitamin for a start. Supplements such as L-theanine (for anxiety) and 5 HTP (hydroxytryptophan, a natural antidepressant) can also be beneficial.
3. Exercise regularly according to your doctor's recommendations. Cardiovascular exercise is ideal because the elevation in heart rate over a period of time releases endorphins, and these feel good compounds help boost your mood. In addition, exercise improves overall health and body image.
4. Talk through the problem. A counselor can be a wonderful asset as you sort through your emotions and the situations in your life that lead to depressed feelings. Your friends and family members can also provide a lot of emotional support and positive affirmation to help you anchor in a better place.
5.  Do small things for yourself each day. Make a list of small activities and indulgences that you enjoy, pick one to do off your list daily. These activities will nurture you, and it also sends a message to your brain that you are deserving of good things.
6. Are you interested in addressing your life challenges from a holistic standpoint, assessing the physical, emotional, and relationship components?

Take Action Developing Your Personal Power In As Little As 30 Days With These 15 Proven Steps

What makes some people so energetic and admired that they become a magnet in attracting others to them. You know, the kind of person you enjoy being in their company. It has little to do with good looks, being abundantly wealthy, owning an expensive car, or wearing the latest fashion statement. Of course, these can’t hurt if you are lucky enough to have them.

It has everything to do with how you think, react, interact, and manage your time effectively. Being a success in life, love, business, and all personal activities takes work and a conscious “awareness” of the qualities and traits that can make you a confident, take charge person that attracts both men and women.

Think about each and every one of the traits listed below. On a daily basis “take action” on one or two of these qualities or traits. Small steps on a daily basis can lead to massive changes over time. Taken as a whole, they can be overwhelming. Progress is not made overnight, but by taking small chunks and tackling them one at a time. Take small steps today and your momentum will pick up next week, next month, next year…compounding like interest in a bank.

15 Steps To Becoming A New Person…

1. Maintain An Even Keel!

Have you ever met a hot head, angry, bitter person that you love to be with. Your temperament and how you handle yourself in all situations can determine your “cool” factor. Maintain steady, sturdy, and stable. Think before you act. Don’t get this confused with personality. Some folks are laid back, some are lively and animated. All are perfectly fine to be who you are, but when the ship hits the fan or when you are being pulled in five different directions, how you react is what’s important.

2. Have A Sense Of Humor!

Be self-deprecating and disarming. You have to be willing to poke fun at yourself from time to time, rather than be staunchly serious. Like anything else in life, humor has to be used in moderation and at the right time to be effective.

3. Smile!

Try this experiment. As you pass 3 people at work, have a somber or uncaring look on your face (This may be normal for you). Next, pass 3 people with a big, genuine smile on your face and offer a short greeting. What kind of reaction do you get? How did it make you feel? How did it make them feel? People love to feel valued and important. You can make someone’s day just by giving a simple smile.

4. Treat People Like You Would Want To Be Treated!

What goes around comes around. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity. This applies in front of them and behind their back. Don’t get caught up in viscous gossip.

5. Remember Peoples Names And Small Details About Them!

More importantly use both of them in conversation. People love to hear their names and asking a question about their life shows you have an interest in them on a personal level.

6. Be Honest!

If you lie, even a small little white lie, eventually you will get caught in it. Everyone appreciates direct honesty, even if it is not popular or what they want to hear.

7. Let Other People Talk!

Conversation needs to be two sided to take place. Let the other person do most of the talking. Remain attentive and interested in what the person has to say.

8. Listen!

Really listen to what the other person is telling you. When he or she is talking, give direct eye contact and don’t think of how you are going to respond. Process what they are saying and then formulate your answer. Too many people do not listen when people talk but instead think about what they will say next and miss most of what that person said.

9. Do Your Homework!

Don’t go into anything unprepared. Plan and organize what you need to do. Checklists work great, this is why pilots use them….to not forget anything. Wasting someone’s time due to poor planning leaves a bad impression. Even a little preparation, if rushed, goes a long way.

10. Be Disciplined!

Physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual discipline is at the core of your being. Work on improving it every single day.

11. Stand Up Straight And Fly Right!

Good posture commands attention. Shoulders back, stomach in, butt in, and direct eye contact give you a commanding presence.

12. Be Compassionate And Caring!

The world is a hard place, but caring and compassionate people always make a difference in an otherwise selfish world. 

13. Find A Mentor!

Emulate someone you admire. Good role models help us build our own unique model of who we are.

14. Associate With Positive People!

If you want to be upbeat, positive, and confident, don’t hang around with petty, nasty, complaining, whiney people. They will bring you down if you let them or you will become one of them. You know the type, complains at work but does nothing to change their unhappy situation. Life is too short to be pessimistic. Choose people who laugh, have goals and objectives, and are interested in living life to the fullest.

15. Give!

Give your time or give your money to worthwhile causes. What you give and how much you give will come back to you in spades in all kinds of ways. Misers are unhappy people.

Everyday strive to be the best that you can possibly be. Will you stumble along the way? Sure, but it is how you get up and continue that counts. It is the small effort that you take daily that can lead to the dynamic, “gee I wish I were like him/her” person you deserve to be.

Your attitude determines your altitude in life. Good luck and start today!

Best Motivational Quotes From Oprah Winfrey to Start Your Day

Do you feel uninspired lately? Do you feel like going to work or to school is a total chore? Are you worried about doing something? Are you feeling unhappy again?

Negative thinking has a way of dragging us into inactivity and depression. When we start thinking and entertaining those sample questions, it will eventually become a habit. Positive thinking is the only way that we can get ourselves out of a sticky situation.

The Dance Of Life

Waking up as a little boy the excitement for the day’s adventure pumped through my veins and lit up my eyes. I’d look out the window at the bright sunshine, the hay fields, and the expansive blue skies and magical clouds. Once out in the freedom of the day, with no responsibilities, I’d hop, skip, jump, and run with joy, wonder, and excitement. Somewhere along the way, I began to remember and learned about cause and effect. Suddenly some limitations came into existence.

Everyday we would do well to forget many of the happenings of our yesterday. No bias, no fear, no limitations, no expectations, just wonder. Wonder and curiosity accompanied by joy and love. This intrigues me greatly. How would tomorrow look? How would my world interact? This ideal leads me to believe that more is available for all of us. As an idealist, many things I say may seem unattainable. This is the peak possibility, of that there is no doubt. While the ideal is beautiful, any measure or occurrence of that ideal is welcome. A grain of salt to flavor each day for a
