Auditory Meditation for Emotional Healing

Put on the music of your choice and begin by focusing on the sound alone. Then shift your attention to the center of your head and hear the music there (energy flows where attention goes). Move your attention to your chest and hear the music there. Then to your navel, and then to your pelvis. Include your hands and your feet, if you wish, and finally your whole body. Keep your attention at each location for as long as you like, and be aware of the sensations of your body. As you focus on each area the energy of the music seems to intensify at that point. This is a good meditation for locating areas of hidden tension and releasing them, and for energizing any part of yourself in any way you choose.

As an enhancement to this exercise, I found a nifty little music widget. I've got this one tagged "new age" and if you click on it, you'll end up at a website with a a a playlist from your selected album already loaded and ready to play. Alternatively, you could pop in a CD and listen to your own music.

As always, if you have problems with this, let me know and I'll see if there's anything I can do to help. Have fun!
