"Give In" Massage Playlist

In the heat of the summer you may find yourself working against your surroundings.  We spend our time shuffling between one air conditioned space to another.  We spend more time driving in cars rather than walking or riding bikes.  We eat take out instead of cooking because it's just too darn hot.

I thought it would be fitting to make a playlist about just giving in.  The ability to give in to our surroundings is an important one.  After all, you've seen what an amazing release your muscles can have when you just breathe and give in to the pressure during a massage.  

I've included the playlist here in case you maybe wanted to play it in the car, in the Austin summer, windows rolled down, sweating like crazy with a grin on your face.

"It Gets Better" Massage Playlist

Often, we need a massage when things aren't going so well. Knotting in the neck and shoulders is a sign of tension and stress, serious injury can bring on bouts of sadness. Sometimes you just need a massage to feel comforted.  

So this week we have the "It Gets Better" Massage Playlist. It includes songs of good times, bad times, and things-are-improving times, to remind us of the fluctuations in moods, situations, emotions, and life. And don't worry! Even if you're not feeling down you'll still be able to enjoy the soft, drony, and comforting soundscapes in this mix.  

Please support these artists by buying their music or seeing them perform.
