Some people have no problem sitting in meditation, with a quiet mind, perhaps using a mantra to keep out intrusive thoughts. Others require a more active meditation, which can be achieved through guided visualizations. I have always employed relaxation tapes, focusing on everything from building self esteem and reaching stillpoint, to progressive relaxation of every muscle in my body, which I often use in bed before I fall asleep, usually with the headphones still stuck on my ears.

In writing THE CHAKRA DIARIES, I used Chakra Meditations to introduce the chapters of different participants in the Chakra Workshop who were dealing with issues pertaining to that chakra. I was asked to record these meditations so that a person could listen to them in sequence. The beautiful spiritual music of Aryeh David, from his album "Love's Whispers" accompanies the guided meditation. "Through all of life's journey, love is actually the only thing there is... May this music awaken the love within and remind you of who you truly are," he writes.

I've posted a free preview on the Chakra Meditation page of TheChakras.org for the next two weeks - after that it will be available as an MP3 download for sale at Amazon.com.

Please listen and may you enjoy peace, harmony and balance.
Namaste!
