I don't listen to music while I read, but maybe finding instrumental music that's similar to the mood of the book could help? Ex. Listening to dark/haunting instrumental while reading a gothic or horror book

I listen to ambient music when I read, I find it helps me tune out distractions in my own head and helps me focus. linked my reading music from today

i like to listen to specific things when reading specific things. donkey kong 64 aquatic ambience hits with in watermelon sugar. the caretaker’s an empty bliss beyond this world hits with house of leaves, etc. -Zack

Instrumental is probably the wrong word, but ambient, noise, classical, electronic music, etc. music without words. I love lyrics and poetry, and listen to music with words a lot, but many times,  especially in headphones, when I listen to music I can hear my own thoughts better, and hearing someone else’s in there is too distracting.

I've been feeling depressed/lonely for awhile. And I've heard volunteering is a good way to reconnect with yourself and others, reducing depression and loneliness. So I finally took a step toward volunteering today by filling out an application!
