Music and mood

Rock music is what usually does it for me. It seems to elevate my mood. Sometimes I even listen to some of the more upbeat, fast paced country music if I feel like a change.

I could be sitting here, thinking about wanting to get something from the fridge, and I'll put on some of the right music (for me) and I forget all about wanting that food. It changes my frame of mind.

I find this too. If it's a good upbeat song it will really cheer me up

Nice! Use the power of music to stop the self destruction. I too do the same thing sometimes. Do you think you could have the same effect listening to some jazz?

Music definitely helps to change my mood and keeps my mind off of things, food included, which can be a very good thing. Music can do a lot of good. (:

It's actually been proven that there's a certain beat frequency that boosts mood. I can't remember the exact ratio, but I do remember most pop songs and techno had a positive effect on mood. Faster tempos are good for you.

It's classical music that does it for me, I'm such a geek but really any music will lift my mood!

I wish music made me not want to eat. I guess I should try turning up the music when I'm hungry. I bet it might work because it might get me to want to boogie! I will have to try it the next time I am tired or bored (that is when I think I'm hungry).
