Self, Kalma: Calming songs that you can listen to
When things get tough don’t forget to breathe, relax and be calm. Life has so many problems. As I don’t want to normalize having problems, well it’s hard. Maybe our goal really is to solve problems after solving another one. Sometimes what we need is rest, we need some peaceful time. Ivan listens to music when he feels stressed or tired. He thinks that music helps him to be calm. Oh sorry, this is not about me. But, I’m sharing with you some songs I love to listen to when I feel tired.
Self, Kalma: Calming songs that you can listen to
1. 4 o’clock – BTS (Taehyung, RM)
I recommend listening to this song in the morning. Like while having a cup of coffee. Taehyung’s voice here was very calming. Sometimes listening to this song made me reflect on my decisions and also somehow it keeps me motivated.
Why are you crying
You and I are the only ones here
Me and you
2. That’s Okay – D.O.
There will be times when you will be tired. You occasionally wonder what you’re doing with your life. If you feel the same then get your phone to listen to this song right now. D.O.’s angelic voice will surely calm you.
I feel like I’m losing myself in the
Many emotions that have gone by
From some point, I became used to
The rules I follow to hide my heart
3. Breathe – Lee Hi
Life is harsh. Sometimes we may feel suffocated. I know you are reading this because you want to be calm. Maybe you are on the edge. Relax, be calm, and forget what you are thinking. Like this song, I would love to say that it’s fine to cry, make mistakes, and you did well. I hope when you listen to this song you will find comfort.
It’s alright if you run out of breath
No one will blame you
It’s okay to make mistakes sometimes
Because anyone can do so
4. Through the Night – IU
It’s already given that IU‘s voice is calming. I recommend listening to this song before you sleep. Even though this song is about love, you can still find comfort within. This song will bring sweet dreams.
Tonight, I’ll send you the firefly from that day
To your window
I hope you have sweet dreams
It’s fine to take a break once in a while. You are only a human. I hope this list of songs gave your comfort. I’m rooting for you!
