Music for Relaxation

Music is an important tool for relaxation. It can change a person's mood and energy in a really dramatic way. Many times when I have felt uptight or stressed I have been able to relax when listening to soothing and uplifting music.

There are many artists who call themselves "New Age" and that music often claims to have the goal to relax the listener. To me the title is less important than the actual music. It is of course a really individual choice which music fits your taste. I have a few CDs that have become favorites and I wanted to share those here.

Ma Jana (have not seen many CDs from this person) and it seems as if they might be a bit hard to get hold of but Amazon still sells them. You can also listen to samples on the Amazon web site:


Reiki - Part One
Reiki - Part Two


These can be used when you treat with Reiki but can also be used when just wanting to listen to really calming and soothing music. I am a Reiki Master and found them when I was looking for music for doing Reiki treatments.
 Two other CDs that have components of nature sounds but also have "real," very inspiring music are. They were released by Rising Star Records (which is no longer in business as far as I know) with various artists:

Forest Cathedrals (also hard to get hold of unfortunately but sold by Amazon)
Seashore Solitude (have not been able to locate it online but it might be available through private sellers)

Listen and enjoy!
