In these modern times of stressful living, many people seek ways of relieving stress and meditation has grown in popularity over the years. The rise of New Age enthusiasts and holistic healing practitioners have promoted different forms of meditative techniques. A lot of people prefer meditation music to play in the background as it helps them to focus and escape from everyday trials and tribulations.
CDs and downloads of this type of ambient music are plentiful. They are advertised as sounds for general relaxation and for specific forms of alternate therapy. There is meditation music, designed to help people to fall to sleep or to unwind after anxiety or a stressful work day. Other CDs are promoted for listening to whilst practicing yoga, pilates, reiki or tai chi. Certain therapies are suitable to certain rhythms and each discipline has its own repertoire of tunes. Insomnia is a great problem for many people and chill out CDs can be very helpful. The soothing melodies lull people into a state of relaxation and drowsiness. This builds up a habit of sleep and people often find that they can then fall asleep without any help. Meditation music is also employed by hypnotherapists, to relax the patient and by aromatherapists. An Internet radio station, which can be accessed around the clock, broadcasts a wide variety of meditation music. This network is paid for by commercials but membership of the network is offered and members can listen to uninterrupted broadcasts without any advertisements. Recordings of established pieces of classical music are also promoted as meditation music, in addition to original work by contemporary composers. A lot of chill music tends to use similar instruments and flute, harp and piano are very popular. Some recordings ask the listener to imagine themselves in a special place, such as a wood, meadow, garden or perfect beach. Gentle woodland sounds, the sound of the ocean tide coming in or the tinkling of a stream are sometimes added to tunes. Indian sitar music is popular too. One of the most successful exponents of the genre is Sri Chinmoy. In addition to producing meditation music CDs, he performs in concerts and gives talks on world peace and how to achieve harmony. He is a philosopher and a poet, bringing his view of life to his music. An accomplished musician, he plays bamboo flute, the harmonium and a classical Indian instrument called the esraj.
