When I'm really stressed I watch Howl's Moving Castle.
I've seen it so many times it's just reassuring to have it on, but I started to realize it's more than that. I thought it was because the characters were comforting to be around, and that's part of it too.
But I finally realized that the whole soundtrack, from the music, to the sound effects, to the voices, is soothing to my every nerve in a way that nothing else does?
No idea if that works for anybody else, LOL! 😂

@5ciFiGirl@starbase80.wtf thank you. Miyazaki films are so beautiful: the stunning animation, the music, the gentle charcaters. Great suggestion. Thank you for sharing. ❤️

@5ciFiGirl @Phangurl I get that way with things I have a happy emotional attachment to... Although I find that music alone can already be distracting to me, actual tv/movies/shows are way more so. But feeling that you are among friends/companions/etc. can be very reassuring and crank up those good feels.
