5.0 out of 5 stars Music for being Within, October 3, 2002

Quiet, tranquil notes spill from the cd player, easing tensions. Like water running over a stone, gradually, the hard edges are worn away, and you are left feeling smooth and refreshed. The rhythmic flow of the violins, the soothing, bird-like tones of the flute...you feel as though your mind and body are being transported downstream towards a large accepting sea of tranquility.

We use this album a lot to ease down after a tense day, and use it almost every night to lull our six-month-old baby to sleep. She finds it very relaxing as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful soothing music!, April 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Tortoise: Chinese Feng Shui Music (Audio CD)

My whole family (including 9 and 10-year old children) loves this delicate, soothing music. It is perfect when we arrive from a tiring day, or to settle everyone down before bed. There are many interesting chimes and instruments within the songs. It would also be great to meditate to.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tortoise - Chinese Feng Shui Music, February 6, 2001

You can believe this music releases the energy associated with the element of water because it just flows from your player. From tinkling brooks to hidden mysterious streams to rushing torrents, what ever knots you have formed in your muscles during the day, dissolve in it's eglaic tones. At one point I felt convinced I was hearing the patter of rain outside , got up to check and realized it was still the CD. I practice Chen man Ching's yang style of Tai ji to this and the pacing and mood is excellent. It's wonderful for Qi Quong, for meditation, not intrusive and a definite aid to focusing your awareness, and you'll also think it's a soundtrack to a film you saw long ago..and always remembered.
