5.0 out of 5 stars Peace, March 29, 2004

There is a scientific principle called entrainment. If two items are vibrating side by side at different speeds then the item that vibrates at the lower speed will adjust to vibrate at the same frequency as the other object.

Examples of this are swings in a playground that are swinging out of sync and adjust. Also, in a clock store you may notice the pendulum clocks of the same size swinging back and forth in unison.

Applied to sound your different chakras or energy points vibrate at different frequencies and notes vibrating at a specific rate for a prolonged period will cause your energy points to reattune themselves, and bring your chakras back into balance, and promote a sense of well being and peace.

This cd applies these principles using swirling harmonics and overtones and beautiful instrumental sounds such as chimes and bowls including the rhodes piano to create an atmospheric sound.

I can feel the musical vibrations resonate thoroughout my body, and I certainly do feel more relaxed even after a short listen.

This record has been rated as groundbreaking by New Age Voice. I also recommend Dr Jeffrey Thompson's cds particularlyAwakened Mind System

I trust you find this review helpful, and the music enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Puts me to sleep (but that's a good thing), May 13, 2004

I have trouble staying asleep some nights, and I've recently found that certain types of music or sounds can put me in a relaxed state. Steven Halpern's "Chakra Suite" is one of the best for this purpose.

The chakra suite is supposed to be used to meditate on each of the seven chakras or power centers of the body. I am not one who meditates, on chakras or other things, but if you do meditate, this is supposed to be a good aid to focus one's energy and concentration. The bonus on this CD is the "Spectrum Suite" and another bonus, Sonic Satori thath is supposed to use the power of sonic entrainment. a psycho-acoustic technology with an effect on brainwaves.The music involves notes with 8 cycles per second, which is said to synch the brain to relaxed brain waves, for example:
Alpha - 8-12 CPS (associated with relaxed, calm, and creative waking state)
Theta - 5-7 CPS (associated with dreams, suggestive states, hypnagogic states)
Delta - 1-4 CPS (associated with deep, dreamless sleep)

Whatever the effect, I find playing one of the suites as I lie in bed, relaxes me to the point where I drop off easily. I also like it for a quick relaxation break during a stressful, long day.

This is HANDS DOWN the BEST meditation CD I have. It's absolutely incredible. From the first note it instills a beautiful peacefulness that is unmatched by any other music out there. The music is clean and has an immediate purifying effect. It is absolutely a pleasure to listen to actively or just let it fade into the background and relax the entire atmosphere. When this CD is on, I can completely melt into just being and enjoy every moment of it. It helps me meditate if I choose to, it helps me fall asleep if I choose to. I will also try to use it when needing to concentrate to study -- the effect of the music is so purifying and cleansing that it leaves you relaxed and refreshed and ready to face whatever comes your way. This was the first CD I bought by Steven Halpern, and it has impressed me so much I am now looking for all of his CDs. You won't regret buying this one!!
