Yesterday I felt pretty toasted after work. I had band rehearsals in the evening, and that requires approx. 40 minutes of driving to one direction. As I commute by bus, it's by far the most I drive during an average week -- unless it's the summer cottage season, which it isn't at the moment.
I've recently understood that driving is potentially pretty stressful for me. I've used to blast some rock/metal on my way to the rehearsals to get in the mood. However, I've also started to understand that combined with stressful environment, loud music is absolutely the wrong choice. Silence is not an option, I need some aural stimulation for my driving, and I very much prefer albums to radio. So, I decided to put on some relatively quiet music.
That was a great choice! As usual, the rehearsals were fun, and with my choice of driving music I actually felt less tired when I was driving back home. It was a small change in my routine but listening to myself made a huge difference in the end.
