I listen to a variety of music when working, and with the iPhone, it’s easy enough to select the music you want to hear. I found that listening to music helps keeps me more aware of the passage of time. and drowns out the noise from inconsiderate co-workers. And sometimes when I have those intrusive thoughts rattling around in my head, crank up the volume drowns them out.
But this is the really weird one, I especially like listening to First Nations pow-wow drum circle music. Talk about maintaining cognitive tempo! In a lot of cases, they sing in their original language, so being distracted by lyrics isn’t a problem, unless you speak Cree.
Hope this helps.
