Mozart
Classical music—especially Mozart—is said to have healing effects, and a therapy called “Mozart therapy,” which involves treating various illnesses by listening to Mozart, is actually practiced both in Japan and abroad.
There’s even alcohol that is fermented while being exposed to Mozart’s music, with the effects highly anticipated.
Forest sounds
The forest sounds centered on wild birds’ calls have an outstanding healing effect, making you feel as if you’re meditating in the woods and even giving you the illusion of being bathed in negative ions.
I hear this recording was made in the forest by the shores of Lake Towada.
I suppose in the old days you could hear birds chirping like this no matter where you were in the country.
The sound of waves
It’s often said that all living things were born from the sea, and doesn’t the sound of waves make you want to keep listening forever? The sound of the waves is like the Earth’s breathing, evoking a world beyond humanity.
If you meditate while listening to it, won’t your mind grow calm, and you may rediscover the wonders of nature.

Performed by the Argentine musician Alejo Nobili, this is a piece many of you might recognize as soon as you hear it.

As you listen, you are led into a meditative state and drawn deeply into its world.

I Riden Så (Ye Ride So Carefully)Gjallarhorn
They’re a little-known Finnish group active since 1994.
The band took its name from a horn that appears in Norse mythology, and most of their songs are about Norse myths.
Centered around folk instruments, their misty music evokes forests and sea-of-trees landscapes.
