I started writing about music (regularly) with this: To Whom am I Listening To-sday It was Mer de Noms 23rd bday, and I thought it deserved a post in and of itself.

Did you know shaking your body quickly and intensely - like a dog shakes - is a quick way to reset your system and lessen anxiety? I learned it from one of my doctors, and it actually works really well.
