Editorial Reviews

Carl McColman, New Leaf
"Her performance as a musician is precise and hypnoticlistening to her and her partner Tommy Brunjes perform, entering a trance state is almost irresistible. In interviewing her, I found a woman who is intelligent, articulate, and passionate about her message."

Product Description
In India's nada yoga (sound yoga)tradition, sacred music has been revered for centuries for its power to attune and balance our physical, mental, and spiritual energies. Chanting the Chakras combines trance drumming with authentic yogic chant to retune the body's seven vital energy centers and encourage inner awareness. Chant along - or simply listen - whenever you need to rejuvenate and center yourself. Includes a 24-page booklet with diagrams and full explanations of the chants, and a description of the history of meditation practice and current scientific understanding of how music and drumming affect our minds and bodies. Redmond is accompanied by these acclaimed music artists: Tommy Brunjes (udu drum, frame drums, percussion), Steve Gorn (bansuri bamboo flute), Amitava Chatterjee (chanting, sitar), and Laurel Masse (chanting).

5.0 out of 5 stars Vibrate with the sounds of your body/spirit connection., January 16, 2000

By	Lisa Quattrochi (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Roots of Awakening: Chanting the Chakras (Audio CD)

To be in tune with the body and spirit requires a great deal of processing of the human psyche. Sounds play a key role in allowing the human mind to delve into parts of the unkown self. This CD provides the vibrational element to link your connection to all parts of self. The sounds and words of pure essence, have been researched to lock into the key points of the body. Meditate, chant, yoga, breath work, dancing, etc. all can be used with this CD. I have used the chants of the first song to fine tune my essence. I danced to the 2nd song to intergrate my body, mind and spirit. The 3rd song feels like the manifestation of the process of my intergration. I hope you will discover as much as I have with this CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, September 6, 2003

By	merrymousies (Waterford, VA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

More middle eastern sounding than the eastern that I was expecting - absolutely lovely. The music evolves and changes through the chakras, the human voices are more like an instrument being played. It really has a mesmorizing effect. I love it.

This CD deserves more than 5 stars! I have never listened to a piece of music that was so able to instantly elevate my consciousness. It is beautiful to just listen to and pure ecstasy to chant along with. HIGHLY recommended!
