The One with the Jazz🎷
Reaching a place of zen for me means clearing my thoughts of anxiety and being in the present. Sometimes, that means getting out of my head to appreciate the world around me while I go for a walk. Other times, it means creating a rhythm and flow as I clean up around my apartment, continue working on stories I’m writing, or meditate. Music can be fun to lose myself in as I feel the rhythm and beats and let myself be emotionally transported to the world that the artist creates. When it comes to reaching a place of zen, though, I prefer jazz. That most jazz songs are instrumental is soothing. But even when they have lyrics, the style of jazz vocals always brings me a sense of calm and relaxation.

My 2021 Fresh Start
2020 was… a lot. On a global level, there was the Coronavirus Pandemic. People started getting increasingly sicker in February and countries were entering lockdown by March. It was a scary time filled with much uncertainty and fear. On a national level, the stress of the pandemic was exacerbated by political unrest and economic upheaval. 2020 became marked by the fear that the United States was on the precipice of losing its very heart—democracy.
