Playlist: Tiny Songs For Your Sleepy Brain

Good morning! Actually, I take that back. What’s good about the morning? I find that nothing feels worse than peeling myself out of my delicious, warm, soft bed. And even when I’m physically out of bed, my brain stays set to sleep mode until I’ve had several cups of coffee. Until then, my eyes don’t open all the way, my thoughts are under water and the outside world feels generally confusing and intrusive.

Maybe you have the same experience. Here are some tiny, quiet and lovely songs to listen to as you sip your first cup of coffee and wait for your brain to catch up.

Note: maybe you love mornings, and if that’s the case, I’m really happy for you. But please know that we can never go on vacation together.
