Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 Anyone else out there have some song playing in their head 24/7? Pretty much every waking moment for as long as I can remember, I've had various songs running through my head. It doesn't really interfere with anything -- I get work down, I have conversations, I read -- but if I stop for a moment, there's some song playing. Where it gets frustrating is when I try to quiet my mind in meditation. If I focus on the song, it keeps playing. If I let it play out, it does, then starts up again. If I try to block it ... well you know how well that works. It's not like a thought or feeling that can be " floated down the stream. " Because it's a song it's very " sticky. " I've met several other people who have the same thing (someone said it's playfully called an " ear worm " when a song sticks in your head) Any suggestions on how to diffuse from it while meditating would be greatly appreciated!
