Did you know that when a man hears a woman’s voice, it get processed in the same part of the brain where he hears music?

A mindful practice of music would be to let your self hear every note, every word, every tap of the cymbal, every finger touching every string or every key. Let each high note lift your heart. Allow every bass line to connect you to the rhythms of the earth. Let tears fill your eyes when two voices in harmony loop together like ribbons. Boom, boom, boom, boom. So familiar, not to your ears but your primal core… And sometimes let yourself hear the space in between, so that you find your foot, on the up, on the 2. The 2 is like inhaling, so often overlooked.

Music is love, but passionate love. Ecstasy. To allow your self to feel music is to be deeply moved. Next time you are “feeling” music remember what it feels like in your body. Notice how you react to it. Then imagine the music is no longer playing, yet you still feel this feeling in your heart, your skin, even your hair. This is what it feels like to know what it is that you want.
