Dr. Masaru Emoto’s CD
July 6, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
There is a wonderful book written by Dr Emoto entitled ‘Water Crystal Healing’. Here is a tip to meditate using the classical music that comes with the book.
Select the music with the desired outcome. The book explains the effect of each piece of music and how it will affect our vibration or energy.
Fill a wine glass with water and place it near but not touching your speakers. When you play the music, look at the corresponding crystal picture and focus on it until the musical piece concludes. Next drink the glass of water. The water should form the same crystal as the music, although we cannot see it.
Try it and feel the difference!
How’s that for using music to meditate.

Today, not everyone has the time to go to traditional meditation classes that take an hour per session, two or three times per week. So even though meditation has the power to center our thoughts and restore the balance to our minds and bodies, help in concentration, provide a more restful sleep and improve problem solving skills, many neglect mediation because they are too busy working, taking care of their families and running a household.
Whether it is by therapy, prayer or meditation, all of us can start to take better care of our mental health. Here are six sites where you can buy and download meditation music to your Ipods or music players so you don’t miss out on your much needed stress reduction. In all these sites full membership is optional, but you have to have an account with some of these sites to buy and download meditation music that is not free, as purchasing suggests. There is even a website at the end of the article for an additional seventh site for good luck.
1.
Mysticamusic is a great site to buy and download meditation music. Mysticamusic offers user reviews of every track as well as a listen before you buy and download meditation music for free. To buy and download meditation CDs from Mysticamusic, however, you have to sign up for an account. The prices of the meditation CDs range from 0.99 cents to $9. Mysticamusic offers music genres other than meditation music which include: Sufi, devotional, instrumental, discourses, classical, classical dances, south Indian classical and comedy. But mainly, this site allows you to buy and download meditation music that is essentially of Asian Influences.
2.
Christian Meditation and Relaxation offers an alternative for Christians who do not want to buy and download meditation music that run contrary to their religious beliefs. Christian meditative music therefore includes sounds of nature, pianos, harps and heavenly sounds that traditionally echo the Christian faith. There are free meditation downloads available as well as CDs for sale. For a membership price of $99 a year, you can buy and download meditation, scripture and affirmation CDs centered on bringing you closer to Christ.
3.
On Omstream, their meditation music is categorized and music includes yoga, peace sounds, world music, lounge drop and whole life Reiki music. To buy and download meditation music from Omstream is relatively expensive with the cheaper musical selections starting at $9.99. Users who upgrade to membership get a 40 per cent discount on purchases. There are also many Yoga videos available for sale on Omstream and ample opportunity to buy and download meditation music or instructional videos.
4.
The Unexplainable Store offers an array of mind relaxing techniques such as meditation, chakra tuning, shaman consciousness, aura viewing and Christ consciousness among many others. On the Unexplainable Store you can buy and download meditation music with prices ranging from $14.99 to $49.95. There are, however, no free downloads available except for the initial sample and free mind tips that every person gets via email when they inquire about the mediation services offered.
5.
Another great site to download meditation music is Download Meditation, an Australian run website. Download Meditation offers mostly free meditation materials but to download certain services such as guided meditations you have to become a premium member for a lifetime membership fee of $8.50 USD.
6.
