image from everyday is special |
when you’re happy and you know it, scream!
my two-year-old daughter seem to have found a correlation
between screaming and good mental health, and thereby has been practicing her
right to positive psyche since i don’t know when. my son, on the other hand, is
on his way to becoming a musician (or sometimes an archaeologist or sometimes
the world’s tallest man), so the sound of a screaming guitar escaping from an
amplifier is very much part of our everyday.
and well, there’s me with my usual domestic convulsions
resulting to occasional semi screams and that makes me an active contributor to
the noise in our abode.
truth is silence disturbs me. clutter in our house has never
appeared any clearer in my visions than the times i attempted to meditate. when i close my eyes to float over rolling
hills and green meadows, unwashed dishes, unmade beds and pieces of toys
suddenly begin to appear in the greenery that i try so hard to paint with
whatever little imagination i have. it washes away every chance nature has to present
its magic to a person who’s nordic walking with ocd and restlessness for poles.
meditation? it’s on my bucket list. in fact, it’s the only
thing in my huge, forsaken bucket right now.
a couple of days ago, i discovered through it's a misteism kinds of
beneficial noise—or noise that aids your concentration while you’re reading,
studying and working. it’s also for when you need to experience peacefulness
and it’s perfect for...meditating. ta-dah!
i’m listening to white noise right now and since i’ve only
listened to pink, white and brown noise a few times, i yet have to find out
which one will benefit me the most. i believe people react differently to sound
frequencies so you might want to try and see what works best for you, too.
you can go to simplynoise and tell me if it’s white, pink or
brown for you. if you just prefer good music, i have a list of five songs that should marry your coffee break.
