Hi, this is Sandro and I have a problem<\/em>. Now you should say, “Hello Sandro,” like during PA meetings, Problems Anonymous. A problem that, I admit, often limits me in my training: if I am worried, pensive, tense, pissed off,<\/del> I can’t train well. I’m in that very annoying condition where my legs are spinning but my head wants to stop every single, darned, heaviest minute that goes by.<\/p>\n

I think about work problems, I get anxious, every annoyance can become an almost unbearable obstacle between me and completing the training I set out to do.<\/p>\n

“Go get treatment from a good one,” you’ll say. Also, yes, it could be a good option. But I have found a method that often helps me: listening to a certain kind of music that has the ability to make my brain empty as I listen to it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It’s that music that, in some cases, makes you sing to yourself while you’re waiting in line in the car or, in other cases, perform headbanging that would put the protagonists of Wayne’s World to shame while listening to Bohemian Rapsody (if you don’t know what I’m talking about, no harm done: you can go to 1:48 here<\/a>). Because of the magical properties of music, with a playlist designed specifically to empty my brain, I am able to exercise and banish negative thoughts and worries. Then endorphins do the rest. ;)<\/p>\n

Clearly this is my playlist (part of it because the original is much longer) and I don’t guarantee that it will have the same effect on anyone but it won’t hurt to try, right?!<\/p>\n

Of course, if it works, you offer me a juice box. You are welcome. ;)<\/p>\n
