When I'm feeling depressed or down on myself, or even if I'm just tense, the swiftest cure is a generous dose of Nat King Cole. He has a rich, smooth baritone voice that is so relaxing and reassuring- like Kingsley Shacklebolt's speaking voice.
I wasn't seeking out acoustic therapy; I was just trying to find a good version of "The Very Thought of You" to share with L. Over the course of my search, I listened to Etta James', Natalie Cole's, and Billie Holliday's versions, but Nat King Cole's was the best. Then I just got sidetracked. As I listened, my forehead smoothed out, my shoulders relaxed, and I breathed evenly. It was lovely.
