Meditation Sounds + Timer

Sound Meditation uses music and sound to clear the mind and deepen meditation. This ancient practice is used by many cultures, religions and mystic traditions. Music is multi-dimensional, linking realms of the brain and facilitating meditation independently of thought. It can ease anxiety and promote a sense of well being.

If you’re able to practice outdoors, you can choose to focus your awareness on sounds in the environment. You may find it very enjoyable and replenishing to settle into the present moment while paying close attention to nature sounds. For meditation, the goal is to notice sounds without getting caught up in identifying or assessing them. You’re not trying to discern whether that birdsong belongs to a robin or a scarlet tanager. Instead, simply relax into noticing and letting go, noticing and letting go as a form of mindfulness meditation where nature sounds are a powerful ally.
