By calming the mind through meditation, it is said to help reduce stress and improve your overall condition.

This is a work by Jonathan Goldman, a master of healing music.

It helps you sleep incredibly well! As you’d expect from a healing artist, it’s very pleasant to listen to.

It’s great for a change of mood in your room, and also nice to listen to with the lights dimmed before bed.

Sleep-dedicated music that guarantees falling asleep within 90 seconds [Sleep Music]rirakkusu kenkyūka

It’s literally music dedicated to sleep.

The sound of flowing water and the gentle repetition of a quiet piano will lull you to sleep before you know it.

It might be a bit more for adults.

It claims you can fall asleep in 90 seconds, so why not try to beat the record? Highly recommended!

crystal bowl

Crystal bowls are instruments made from a crystal powder called silica (quartz) sand.

When struck or rubbed, they produce very long, beautiful, and relaxing tones.

They are used as a sound-healing tool and enjoy a quiet popularity.

It is said that listening to them in a relaxed state can make you feel as though your body is being purified.

Gregorian chant

Gregorian chant is an unaccompanied, monophonic form of sacred music used in the Roman Catholic Church.

Its history is ancient: it is said to have been codified in the early 7th century and developed through the 9th to 10th centuries.

Its flowing rhythm and the solemn melodies sung by male voices have a calming effect on the heart.

Sanukite

Original performance piece for the 'Original Lithophone' from Vol. 3: The Home of Sanukite
Sanukite

The stone known by the scientific name “Sanukite,” which is unearthed only around Goshikidai in Kagawa Prefecture even on a global scale, is rare, but when struck it can produce high-frequency sounds up to 1,000,000 hertz and is said to have a very strong healing effect.

Even simply listening to it as sound is truly pleasant, and you’ll find yourself wanting to keep listening forever.

Mozart

Mozart for Long Work Sessions: 42 Pieces (W.A. Mozart Medley)
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

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.
