Thanks for the post! Learning to meditate is definitely on my to-do list for this year. I find that listening to the rain outside my window is really relaxing so perhaps Chopin’s Raindrop Prelude or to suit my Celtic soul, Loreena McKennitt’s Bonny Portmore.

Thanks for commenting Tristan. Meditation can have some negative connotations but once people give it a try they are often surprised how much it can help.

Thanks Larry! I’ll put Ravi Shankar on my meditation playlist.

anything by JS Bach. I can only meditate in motion, so I have to keep these sounds in my head when I skate or snowshoe or Nordic Walk. I like all my senses alert when I’m playing outdoors so I dont have any music devices in my ears at the time. Bach is architectural music, without lyrics to provoke an emotional reaction, it just builds on itself in a most tranquil way.

I think Carolyn must be reading my mind. I’ve been searching for music to meditate by, and I really appreciate this list.
I’ve had some success with Indian Classical music. ( ie Ravi Shankar) Worth giving it a listen too.
Thanks for you great magazine and relevant articles!!

I try to meditate every day – My friends laughed at me when i first admitted (like a dirty secret) that i meditate, Its a great way to clear the mental debris – I started off by reading “The Dummies hide to meditation which I thoroughly recommend.
Personally i never meditate to music but i can see how it may help,
