How to easily turn on your good mood
Do you have a personal soundtrack? I highly recommend getting one.
Whether you capture it on your iPod or 8-tracks, a collection of songs that put a little extra spring in your step is a valuable asset and a gift that keeps on giving. The right music can calm your nerves, bolster your courage, and brighten your mood. The right music mix can be a highly effective health tonic with no side effects (unless you count involuntary toe-tapping ).
Here are 10 grooves that always do the trick for me with a random pick for the embedded video:
- Amazing – Josh Kelley
- New Shoes – Paolo Nutini
- Stitched Up – John Mayer with Herbie Hancock
- Sounds Like This – Eric Hutchinson
- Rock & Roll – Eric Hutchinson
- Ok It’s All Right With Me – um … Eric Hutchinson again
… see below - Agua del Pozo – Alex Cuba
- Don’t Tell Me – Soulive
- Legendary – Hamilton Loomis
- Fibre De Verve – Paris Combo
So … what tunes get your mood into an upswing?

LOL-I’ve got Rock & Roll on my cell as the ringtone. As for my soundtrack? Two words: Jason Mraz! Oh wait! In the car, 4 words: Judy Garland’s Greatest Hits!

Hey, Shangrila!
Love your birdie avatar – too cute!
I haven’t downloaded any of Eric’s songs, but I’m definitely going to – loving his stuff!
And – YES!! – Jason Mraz … loving him, too. The hit “I’mYours” … SO fun to sing & I love the lyrics.
LOL re: Judy Garland. I only know “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” but I’ve been known to belt out a few tunes from “Hello Dolly” when no one’s looking!
