Listen to one piece of music with full attention

Play a song and do nothing else but listen.

Why it helps

Most of the time music is background. Giving it all your focus can be calming and absorbing.

How to do it

1. Pick a piece without lyrics, or one you love.
2. Sit or lie down, eyes closed.
3. Follow one instrument or sound from start to end.
