It's a Sunday afternoon, the skies are grey and there's a slight chill coming in the cracks of the windows. I'm laying in bed surrounded by pillows and fluffy blankets, and I can hear the steady hum of the rain hitting the window pane. I always imagined heaven to be Jim Halpert wearing boxer briefs holding a puppy, but this experience is a close runner up.
Here is my go-to rainy day playlist. For best results, listen to each song in order alongside the sound of rain pouring outside. Cozy up into bed with a cup of tea, and let this help you transcend the mortal realm.
