The monotony of everyday life can often lead to a drop in momentum and present with itself a set of challenges that follow this slack. No amount of coffee or to-do lists can help overcome this dulldom. So how does one seek everyday magic? While there’s no one single method to beat the slack and rally through the downshift, our take on inspired action this week is through music.
