Music Playlist ~ Spring Has Sprung 2020 Mix
Well my friends, if you’re tuning into this new playlist during the spring of 2020 – we sure are living in a bizarre world right now, aren’t we? In the midst of global pandemic, many of us are staying within the shelter of our homes, and very likely feeling a whole slew of emotions: Anxious. Bored. Scared. Frustrated. A bit batty perhaps? I am feeling fairly helpless myself, but am also extremely thankful for our garden, home, animals, partnership, and of course MUSIC during this time.
Did you know that it is scientifically proven that music can elevate your mood, reduce anxiety and stress, improve memory and cognitive function, and even assist with sleep, weight loss, and pain? It’s true! Far before gardening, music has been my primary therapy and lifelong outlet. So in this crazy time, I hope these feel-good tunes help you get through your day on a slighter lighter note. Stay safe, health, and sane out there.

We love these playlists! Hope you continue to post them as you find new music to share. Love love love the blog as well. You are a unique and talented writer with such good information. We’ve got the sourdough going, kombucha brewing, chickens cooping (and soon to be exploring once I can get them some trellis fences) and of course garden growing with favas, veggies and lots of pollinator plants. Butterflies and Milkweed are next! Then a worm bin! And potting greenhouse! All with a lovely soundtrack in the background. Thanks Deanna, you are an inspiration.

You make the best playlists! I just recently discovered them and they have really been helping my mental state, as for myself also, music really helps to heal my soul and mind. The first song was on one your stories yesterday and I actually went searching for it. What an absolutely beautifully amazing rendition of Feeling Good. Gives me chills! I like how you threw some old classics in too. Nice! Thank you!
DeannaCat
Awesome! I am so glad you’ve been enjoying them. Thanks for tuning in and following!
