Music can really help. Listening to your favourite music is one of the biggest pieces of advice that I can give. Everyone should be able to have some on a phone or iPod etc…

Live music in my view is one of the best because the crowd can cheer you on and you can sing along ( not in public ) and as out of tune as you like. No one cares as long as you are ok and you are having fun.
