Then we’re sharing our own “cortisol cleanse” playlists with you (NO JUDGMENT!) and telling you why we go to artists like Prince, the Carpenters, Wham!, and Phil Collins as easily (and as often) as we do our medicine cabinets.Subscribe to our favorite magazine and get 83% off just by being a PCPS listener.
