Relax & Inspire Playlist

As the days begin to get longer, the promise of springtime inspires a burst of creativity within me. These days, I’ve been painting and writing more, and what helps me in my process is to listen to music while I do so. However, I find that I can’t just put my library on shuffle, since my taste in music is vastly varied, and sometimes listening to heavy beats or louder, faster songs can be distracting. Instead, I need to listen to music that relaxes or invokes emotion in me, which aids in my creative process.

So, I’ve put together a list of 50 songs that I find to be either soothing, inspiring, or uplifting. You’ll find a fairly diverse conglomeration of music on this list, because I find one genre of music can get a little tiresome, so this mix is complete with acoustic and instrumental songs as well as songs with lyrics. There’s R&B, Classical, Alternative, and even a few Top 40s included. Check it out if you find yourself needing to get in the creative zone, and let us know what you think!
