The 5 Best Spotify Playlists for Total Relaxation

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Oregon chapter.

School is stressful. Social stuff is stressful. Saving and budgeting and scheduling and homework, they’re all super stressful. Heck, life is just stressful! So take a second, lay down, get comfy, and listen to some destressing tunes. Or, plug in some headphones and work away to these playlists! They’re pretty universal, and they will relax pretty much any situation you’re in.

1. Spotify Acoustic Covers

This is, hands-down, my go-to Spotify playlist anytime! It’s just easy listening, happy, soft tunes. Also try Spotify Afternoon Acoutstic!

2. Spotify Pure Serenity

This playlist is for when you really want to relax and go for an almost meditative state. Think of a song that’s the mix of a soundtrack to a movie montage and spa music. This playlist is full of ’em.

3. Frank Sinatra

Oh, Frank Sinatra. He’ll forever have a little piece of my heart. Soothing, beautifully smooth and swingy, this guy will calm you down anywhere, anytime, anyhow.

4. Spotify Brain Food

A little more of an electronic take on study music, this is a digitally created white noise playlist. I’ve found it’s totally not for everbody, but for some of us, it’s absolutely perfect.

5. Miles Davis

Never, ever underestimate the power of Miles Davis! This man can jazz like no other. If you love jazz, can stand it, or even barely tolerate it, check him out. I promise you won’t regret it. Oh! And be sure to listen to Freddie Freeloader. That’s my favorite!

Get relaxing!
