Space & Ambient Music By Gulan: Sphere

Another release by Gulan, whose work is inspired by the music of Klaus Schulze, Michael Stearns, Robert Rich, Tangerine Dream. The tracks range from ambient electronica to more of a Berlin-school feel.

I am not usually into meditation music, and frankly bought Sphere because I liked the sound clips that I heard. But, after listening to the CD front to back, I was amazed at the journey that this music takes you through. Unlike other ambient music that sounds like repetitive sheet music, this album comes off like a work of art with great ingenuity.

Beautiful passages with slight variations that sweep your mind into the journey that is Gulan.

The first two tracks start with much motion and activity, the long third track Altai changes the mood with placid tonal passages, then tracks 4-6 bring you back into a flurry of mind trips. The last track, Synthetic-x is a fitting poignant ending. I just hope that there is a sequel to this album I will certainly buy it!

“Sphere”, which comes with great cover art, starts in the same manner as his album “Cassiopeia”: warm, drifting textures of the title track embrace the listener with tranquil, ethereal sonics.

The 11-minute “Airway-2″ is more active, as the textures have a stronger symphonic and deepening sound and are accompanied by nice sequencing.

Next comes “Altai”, the longest track on the album, an almost 18-minute tranquil, slow meandering floater, nicely followed by the expanding, planetarium soundscapes of “Cosmophonia”.

“Airway-4″ and returns to the more active, sequenced style. The only minor point on the album is the freeform “Abstracto”, which sounded a bit rough to my ears.

All in all, “Sphere” is a well produced and composed cosmic journey which lots of ambient/space fans will surely embrace.

Nicely done !

The effects of Subliminal sound vibrations are profound!

I have meditated for 20 plus years, and knowing that it keeps me grounded and serves as my gratitude time to the higher power, God, higher self, whatever you want to call it.

I have studied and practiced different types of mediation over the years. Starting with, one of the techniques of focusing on my body, from head to toe with ever so relaxing music to total silence. I have used the candle focusing technique. Which, I feel works great for the visual focus technique. When you find the right practice or technique that works for you, it becomes easier and easier to meditate.

I think sometimes, my quiet time is just great for reading selected scripture and other spiritual profound words and contemplate those words. With all the negative and tragic events that bombard our minds, eyes and ears every day, it is so vital, in keeping our balance mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. I believe it is and must be a part of everyday living, like exercising and eating healthy. It should become an automatic behavior like breathing.

I feel that, it is that important for all or us to do this to keep our reality and peace of mind and body. We only live once on this earth. To my knowledge and don’t you want to be happy, healthy and joyful? Life is too short, to spoil and corrupt it with perpetual negative and unhealthy habits.

I am acknowledging how meditation is absolutely, necessary for our well being, and I have found an added bonus that assists us further in this process, with my research. There has been a huge amount of research done on how subliminal music and sounds affects our conscious and subconscious mind. I think we all need stress reduction in our lives, whether you live in the urban, suburban or rural place.

The news and internet blasts more than enough negative and bad images and messages to us every day. We all need more tools and ways to circumvent these detrimental influences in our everyday lives. My research has uncovered another approach that I find is extraordinary in facilitating in our stress release. This technique reaches the waves and currents in the brain. It assists the engineering of how we feel about certain activities and thoughts and satisfies the calming and tranquility that we all want to feel.

The music on these CD’s are created for many applications of what you want to accomplish relaxation and energy. I love the tranquil music CD. I felt calm and peaceful after listening. I listen to it as much as I need to. The only way you can experience this feeling is to try it for yourself.

Music Therapy: 8 Ways to Enjoy Your Healing

If you’re suffering anxiety and stress, know that you are not alone. With the financial crisis going on a global scale, plus, the onset of the flu pandemic, we can only worry more. There are so many pain relievers out there that will take out the pain from migraine. What an instant relief, and before we know it – we become addicted to these little miracle pills.

Surely, there are many alternative ways in feeling much better and becoming healthier: from healthy diets, exercises, meditation techniques, aromatherapy, to the very music you listen to. Healing from music may be frowned at by some people who have an innate dislike for classical masterpieces like those of Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, and many others.

There are innovative ways in getting relief from music therapy. In fact, modern sound therapy is not only relaxing, but it is infused with alpha wave frequencies that are simply soothing. You may not hear it, but your brains can feel it. As defined by the American Music Therapy Association, Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals of all ages. Music therapy improves the quality of life for persons who are well and meets the needs of children and adults with disabilities or illnesses.
Music doesn’t only heighten your senses, but it can help your mind focus and stay sharp. Rhythm has a calming effect that can promote relaxation and healing, down to the cellular level. When you’re worry-free, your body feels like floating in cloud nine. Such wonderful positive feeling is a gift that you can enjoy.

Here are Tips on How to Get the Most Out of Your Music Therapy:

1. Choose the right music that makes you feel calm and make sure you will love listening to it.
2. Play music that will gradually lift up your spirits, especially when you’re feeling depressed.
3. You can choose inspirational or motivational music with a speaker who is guiding you on how to reach a deep state of relaxation.
4. Make sure you’re well-prepared to listen. This means you are in a comfortable place and clothing, minus the outside distraction.
5. Listen – without Interruption!
6. Don’t just listen to the music, but feel it. Let the sound fill the very core of your being. Imagine energy filling you with each beat, reaching your very cells, healing every damage.
7. Pause and bask in moments of silence after having listened to a great piece.
8. Keep an inspirational journal where you can write your thoughts and feelings after a profound, relaxing session with sound.

Always remember that when you feel good, your body will feel the same. Let the power of music heal you from within.
Love Music… Love Health..

Yoga and Meditation

Different Styles of Meditation
Nothing is impervious to change and so is not meditation. While the fundamental focus of Meditation has not shifted from what it had started with, there have been several other changes that have led to different styles being followed at different places of the earth over different periods. It helps to know what styles are in practice today so that you can make an informed choice when you plan to undertake meditation yourself.

Watching Your Breathing
One of the very basic forms of meditation is to just control the way you breathe. All you are supposed to do is to sit in an upright position, close your eyes and just concentrate on the way you breathe. While this sounds pretty simple and is actually not that hard to practice, it can make a world of difference. During our day-to-day life we hardly have the time to settle down for a few minutes. That means irregular breathing. Allowing our body some time to actually stay calm and carry on the processes quietly can make a significant difference to how our body performs. With more fresh air in our lungs the heart performs at its best and our body feels rejuvenated.

Watching Your Thoughts
This is one of the tougher practices of meditation. Though physically not that demanding, it is an emotional challenge. The idea is to clear your mind of any thoughts and just let it be. You can sit in the normal upright posture and with your legs crossed. But the trick is to let go of your mind, because, at least initially, the more you will try this, the harder will it get.

Walking Meditation
One of the more innovative versions of meditation, this not only helps you at the level of the mind but you also get some exercise as you pace up and down. You can practice this in a room or outdoors, as long as there are no distractions. Don’t try it in a room where the television is on or in a park with children playing. Again the process is to maintain a relatively brisk pace as you focus on your breathing and walking. Concentrate only on these two things and let go of your other concerns. Staying focused here is the real challenge.

Meditating While Chanting
This is a good style of meditation for the beginners. It has often been a problem for the ones who are starting off on meditation to actually stay focused and not let thoughts wander into their heads. Chanting a mantra can be of much help for them. This helps to keep away other thoughts and lets you focus more. The chant should be chosen carefully so that it is easy for you to remember and say. You need not say it aloud and can just repeat it in your head. As long as you are able to stay focused you know it is working right for you.
