What do we listen to when we need to take care of ourselves?

"Self-care" became a common discussion topic at the start of the pandemic to the extent that it's now not unheard of for relative strangers to share their life-hacks with each other. So, as we come to the end of 2022, with all of the stress and craziness that come from turning the page of a calendar, we offer you a life-tested playlist for well-being: deep cuts our guests recommend for those moments when you want to pull back, recharge, take stock, reset, and find that special sweet spot between listening-and-hearing where you connect with your wellness and can be restored.

Many thanks to all our panelists today. And from all of us at the Hear Me Now Podcast, we hope the year ahead is sweet.

You'll find the (nearly) complete Well-being Playlist on Apple Music and on Spotify. And you can download a printable list, too. A few cuts heard on the podcast episode are not available on streaming services but are available for you to hear elsewhere: "Don't Think Twice" ft. Billy Strings, "Barbara Allen" ft. Emmy Rossum, "Barbara Allen" ft. Emmylou Harris, and an unplugged version of Spencer LaJoye's "Plowshare Prayer," as heard on the podcast.
