yes music really helps me to relax. most of the time, i open my player before i go to sleep. i usually listen to slow music when im mad to calm myself and i listen to any kind of music when im traveling or doing something! i also listen to pop, disco and rnb's when im doing household chores! and it really does help me!

There is enough stress in our lives as it is. I am not certain how music can stress you out, unless it is someone else's music that you do not want to hear. you have the choice to turn it off if you feel that it is stressing you. If I am stressed, I won't turn on any music, because it would be annoying to me. When I do listen to music, it is because I want to, I would not say it relaxes me, but some music is good to hear. I prefer Gospel.

Hi there! I love listening to music. Usually I do it in the evenings with mellow songs to help me relax and fall asleep. While in the mornings it gives me a boost of energy to start my day, but not often times that I listen in the morning after waking up. Neighbors might still be asleep and I don't want to wake them up. But when I do mylot, I listen to music cause sometimes I can get ideas from the lyrics to post in here. Ciao!

It definately relaxes me. I like to listen to different types of music depnding on my mood though. Like if I'm in an angry mood, I like to listen to heavy metal to get the anger out of my system or if I'm happy I like to listen to music that reminds me of good memories.

It Depends on what type of music. Most music is geared to either lift your spirits or calm you down. Music usually makes me feel better even if it amps me up. Sometimes that is a good thing.

I love listening to music and somehow it help me to relax. I usually play my favorite songs and sing with it. That's why I am more relaxed by music when I'm alone and can sing aloud my favorite playing songs. Sometimes, music stress me as some people find it with rock, loud music. But most of the time music help me to relax.

Usually when I am stressed and I listen to music it will calm me down since music usually puts me to sleep and I have never known why,even though some songs will get me pumped up especially if I am stressed and pissed so I usually try to avoid those songs unless I am in a good mood,so that way I do not end up doing something stupid that could get me in trouble with the cops.

Music always relaxes me. It gives me a kind of inner peace and tranquility. I guess it does the same to most of the people.
