Positive Song Playlist - Alphabetical and by Category
The power of music to transform is undeniable. I have spent hours listening to songs and reading the lyrics and have carefully compiled a list of 300+ positive, empowering and inspiring songs to listen to each day. They are predominantly pop with some country, rap, or rock songs. I have endeavored to keep out religious or love themes in the songs.
Our brains are transformed when listening to positive music and we can heal from trauma or illness through music. Listen to about 15 minutes a day and see how your mood, outlook and perspective change for the better.
I am often adding new songs to the list so check back for new additions.
If you have a song you believe should be on this list, please email the title and artist to me at info@sandrajeffs.com
