Symbols are powerful instruments used by the brain to store larger clusters of data. Hypnotherapists frequently use symbols to embed commands and anchor to positive emotions. Symbols can be visual or auditory, or even based in touch.

Music is an auditory form of a symbol. Music can evoke a power all its own, bringing us back to a moment in time, or carrying us forward.

Today, I’d like you to create a musical symbol by choosing a song that is your power song, a song that makes you feel like you can take on any challenge successfully, that fills you with hope and happiness.

Listen to it in the car before you walk into an interview. Hum a little to yourself before a big meeting. Tap out the beat during a stressful time. Use it to connect you to that positive feeling and carry you forward.

Please reply in the comments with a link to your power song.

Here are some to get you started:
Unwritten, Natasha Bedingfield
32 Flavors, Alana Davis
Footprints, Tiesto
Choices, E-40
Freaks Like Me, Todrick Hall
It’s Amazing, Jem
