Customer Reviews:
Deva Premal.......2007-04-26
Hauntingly beautiful voice - highly recommended and not only for the Guyatri Mantra.
music to soothe the soul.......2007-01-08
I bought this CD after hearing someone else play it. It is absolutely wonderful. The first couple of tracks are great for deep relaxation and the rest is wonderful for doing Asanas. One of the best cd's Iv'e come across. I highly recommend it.
peaceful and enchanting..powerful.......2006-09-02
I found the music to be healing. You will feel more connected with humanity as it has a multicultural beauty. Enchanting use of voice and unique musical instruments.
Beautiful, Ethereal and Uplifting.......2006-03-01
For years now I have encouraged people to use play lists to provide a soundtrack for work, recreation and contemplation. If done properly, they can quickly put your mind and subtle systems into perfect alignment to carry out whatever you want or need to do. Constructing play lists has become so much easier with the advent of the iPod. One of the fun things about iTunes is being able to see how many times you have played a particular song.
I was a little surprised to see that I had played the crown jewel of this collection - the Gayatri Manta - well over a hundred times over the last five years or so. Deva Premal's interpretation of this famous piece is extraordinarily fine, as is the entire album. It is almost impossible not to be uplifted by her amazing voice, which is rich, resonant and deepened by the most extraordinary sub-harmonics. Indeed if you are not, it may be a helpful pointer that something is not going quite right in your body or in your life, and that it's time to get some guidance about how to help yourself.
So much more than music, this is sound therapy.
Bliss.......2006-01-30
My yoga instructor often plays track 1 at the end of class while we're resting in savasana--listening brings me back to that feeling of pure bliss and awareness. The whole disk is beautiful.

Music for yoga is such a cliché that you could slap that moniker on a Barry Manilow CD and have it sold as a soundtrack for Downward Facing Dog pose. Yoga music has become a made-to-order commodity, and rarely attains the level of art. The title Music for Yoga and Other Joys doesn't bode well, but then, it has Jai Uttal, a veteran of world fusion going back 15 years and a devotee of kirtan singing teaming up with multi-instrumentalist Ben Leinbach for a series of extended improvisations. Leinbach creates a shifting back drop of chilled, Indian-derived grooves and textures like liquid mercury dipped in a fractal swirl. It's a perfect modal backdrop for Uttal, who improvises freely on an Indian stringed instrument called the dotar, electric guitar, and even banjo. Pieces like the 26-minute "Govinda" extend in a free fall until a rhythm loop drops in. Uttal swaps to a fuzzed out electric guitar solo that eventually merges into an improvised kirtan, his voice coiling in note-bending spirals like soul singing from the east. This may be music for yoga, but it's the other joys that will keep you coming back. --John Diliberto
Album Description
Jai Uttalpremier world music composer and 2003 Grammy® nomineeoffers a moving mix of melody, rhythms, and chants with Music for Yoga and Other Joys. Known for his eclectic blend of East-meets-West sound, Jai offers listeners his first album created especially for yoga practice. More than 60 minutes of sensual music featuring dotar, electric guitar, and slide tamboura, all complemented by Jai's full, golden-toned voice. Produced in collaboration with Ben Leinbach. Also an excellent choice for meditating, gardening, driving, and bodywork.

Yoga music but not that joyful.......2007-05-18
I got this CD though my library based on reviews here and the sample cuts. After listening to this CD a few times, I was done. I enjoy yoga music but not this one.
The title for this CD is full and true.......2007-02-24
I love Jai Uttal's kirtan. There so much shakti that it is a great support for my asana. It supports full fucus and a joyful experience in my asana. Tears come to my eyes when I feel the bhakti expressed though this kirtan!
I feel the joy.......2007-02-09
This is a wonderfull yoga cd. Jai has a beautiful haunting voice and the five songs progress perfectly to fit your asanas. I look forward to buying more of his cds
surreal.......2007-01-10
Jai Uttal along with Krishna Das present music to balance the world.Any person remotely aligned with world peace / yoga or betterment of the world will relate to the mystical chants and attitude expressed here.This album should be compulsory for all liked minds.Wonderful !
Great Massage CD.......2006-12-12
I am a massage therapist and use this CD almost exclusively as background music for my sessions. I especially like the fact that it has a subtle rhytmic pulse almost throughout (rather than the airy/tinkly/spacey feel of a lot of massage music). I also like Uttal's chanting and judicious use of unexpected instruments like electric guitar. And above all, this music really adds to my clients' massage experiences. (Now what to do with all those other CD's?)

Album Description
As we explore the depths of our "self", our "souls", through massage, relaxation, and other healing modalities, we gain experience and knowingness. The music from Detaching The World Vol. 1 is a transient, which allows for this knowingness to occur in a peaceful, tranquil, and comforting environment.
This CD has been created to provide over 60 minutes in running time without the use of vocals or percussion. Emil Gagliardi has introduced a new style of guitar called "The Nuit's Effect" named after its rich soothing textures and deep earthy tones. From the opening cut of "Tranquil Sunrise", Gagliardi's swirling guitar immediately sets the perfect mood for massage and relaxation. The density of "The Valley Beyond" swallows you up in a tapestry of color similar to a warm blanket while the hauntingly beautiful "Fallen Angel" resembles a fresh new day after a storm.
Gagliardi's vision of creating the perfect massage and relaxation music sets Detaching The World (Vol. 1) apart from all others. Its purpose is to serve gentleness and ease like the inhalation and exhalation of the breath.
Customer Reviews:
Detaching the World Vol 1.......2007-06-27
I purchased this CD based on the reviews alone,In comparison to other meditation Cd's I own; this CD ranks far below.The music is in my opinion anything but relaxing.Not suitable for meditation.
Promising Debut by Ambient Guitarist Emil Gagliardi.......2007-05-23
Although guitarist Emil Gagliardi's debut CD was designed for massage, meditation, and relaxation, it is much more than that. The ambient release features soothing, New Age-style synthesizer sounds generated entirely by Emil's electric guitar. The result is not only a great therapeutic tool, but also a legitimate work of sonic art in the vein of Andy Summers' classic ambient guitar album, Mysterious Barricades. Emil Gagliardi is a guitarist to keep an eye out for. [...]
Relaxing Music.......2007-02-20
I have other "relaxing" CDs that really don't do the job. This one does. I actually bought it to listen to while I had some dental work done and it was very helpful!

I got this gift for my boss since he is always so stressed. He closes his door sometimes and pops in the Cd to relax. Thanks!

Great music.......2007-07-13
upbeat, groovy yoga music. keeps the class interested. many students have purchased it for personal listening.
Spiritual and Exotic.......2007-01-12
"Once you taste fresh coconut surrounded by the reflection of the dancing divine, it is hard to go back in the box or deny the energy of life that awaits us. Music is a form of audible prana (energy) that can transform, energize, and return us to our inner substance...leaving the hard shell of thinking mind aside."
Thoughtful, spiritual and exotic, this music weaves a spell of peace over your soul. The first time you listen to this CD it only introduces you to the main rhythms, but as you continue to listen, new worlds open up in delicate nuances of beauty.
This is the type of music that infuses you with its subtlety until you become part of the dance of life. It is unique in the way it first asks to be observed from a distance, then invites you closer and then finally moves from within you as it evokes a flowing connection between sound and movement.
Tracks:
707 Delight-Kirtan Mix - Worshipful and awakening, you begin to feel the yoga mood.
You Are We Am I: Blue Mix - Vibratory elements that harmonize and synchronize flow through you like a refreshing breeze.
Chandini Chowk - Waves of celebratory sound and acoustic drums with elements of the exotic like a beach vacation or the slow sway of trees in a breeze.
Zindagi - A reverberating track with elements of playful rebound.
Deep South - A somewhat jazzy offering with a sensual appeal.
Roots East Dub - Subtle drums with relaxing waves of emotion.
Tenfold - Relaxing and cleansing with spiritual dimensions.
Joi - Playfully spirals you out into the unknown.
Ke Lei Ma La - Oceanic textures and deep reverberations invite you into deep pools of sound.
Sangit Dub - You can almost imagine walking beneath a full moon and hearing the strains of this track off in the distance, mingling with nature's orchestra.
Invocation - A blending of vocals so beautiful they melt you like a warm embrace of sound.
Durga Pahimam - Deeply relaxing and nurturing...completes the soul cleansing and fills you with a feeling of peace.
Shiva Rea creates some of the most beautiful spiritual electronica I've heard in this lifetime and this is a compilation of music she enjoys.
Artists featured include: Rara Avis, tj Rehmi (from London), MIDIval PunditZ (from Delhi), Spy from Cairo (from London), Layo Paskin (Germany), Ian Sandler, Layne Redmond, Tumbara, Antion, PFL, Shanti Shivani and Jai Uttal.
Shiva Rea teaches Vinyasa Flow Yoga and you may also want to look for her beautiful peaceful Yoga DVDs:
Solar Flow
Sun Salutations
Yoga Shakti
Lunar Flow Yoga
Shiva Rea is deeply connected with the flow of life and embraces a soul cleansing spiritual dimension in her work that brings us closer to what we know to be home, that peaceful place of inner reflection and beauty.
This CD would be perfect for Yoga or Meditation or a combination of dance, yoga and meditation. Due to the way the music flows you can fully experience all the levels of the Yoga experience. First, you warm up and feel energized and then you sink into a relaxation that ends with happiness and peace. Truly beautiful!
~The Rebecca Review
My new favorite.......2006-03-19
I own Shiva's DVD "Yoga Shakti" and loved the soundtrack, which is what led me to buy this CD. It's perfect for your home practice (just put the CD in and go) or for just hanging out (I like to play it while cooking). :o)
a good alternative option for yoga music.......2006-03-14
Some of them sound pretty energetic and vivid. My favorite one is the last 2 songs. Very soothing.
I love this music!!!!.......2005-12-09
I just purchased this CD because the music sounded good. Not because I'm a person wanting music for yoga practice; not because I want eastern music... just because it sounded good. And when I played it I fell madly in love with it! More! More! More!
I'm quite sure that this would be great for yoga, spacing out, doing housework.... or more interesting things (even better for those, i'm thinking...)... seriously.
For this kind of music, I'd easily pay double. This is an incredible compilation and I highly recommend it.

rootsy rhythm to feed your soul.......2007-06-29
After reading the reviews I must comment. This cd wonderfull. It starts with an invocative chant to honor the source and follows with a lot of rootsy Hindi music which follows the sequence of your yoga flow. The third track is a delight. It sounds like a village of children singing their hearts out in a very upbeat heartlifting joyful song. Jai Utall is featured in the backbend portion. The second to last song is piano with what sounds like an old yogi softly speaking and the last song is a Hindi woman sounding a namaskara chant. The last two tracks are very raw and for some may seem wierd at first but relax and let go. Let it take you to a quiet place. Peace to you, me and this crazy world.
Wow.......2007-06-15
My current yoga cd's are boring compared to this one. The first time I played it in class, just about all of my students made positive comments. It's hot!!

I found this to be rather bland and repetative. It is difficult to find good Yoga music because everyone's tastes are so different. I prefer drums and traditional instruments. This one is a bit new agey for me.

Album Description
"Whether you teach active yoga or just enjoy practicing yoga in your home, this is perfect to keep you moving." -ACCENT WEEKLY
"This is not your mother's yoga music Composed/performed/produced by DJ Free, his keyboards, Native flute and distinctive chanting flow along grooves laid down by master percussionist Brent Lewis
the overall feel is richly layered, a kind of primal naturalness mixed with an edgy urbanity. If one's style of yoga, dance, or movement is highly energetic, this could be the perfect motivator." -NAPRA REVIEW
"On Ice...DJ Free and Peter Schimke made sure all their musical chromosomes were properly aligned before hauling in a posse of luminaries, local and otherwise, to put the glisten on their first non-soundtrack collaboration. even as a simple augmented duo, the programming whiz and keyboardist-around-town slide accross genre boundaries with Olympic-caliber grace, mixing potentially unwieldy elements - shuffly house-music tectonics, serious jazz piano, and high-disco string pyrotechnics - as though they were water." -CITY PAGES
Award winning artist Soulfood (Best IMAX Score) and master percussionist Brent Lewis join forces to create the follow-up to the best selling Yoga Rhythm. Rhythmic percussion by master percussionist Brent Lewis, who has studied with drum masters from around the world; has performed with a long list of artists (Smokey Robinson, Grateful Dead, Joe Cocker); can be heard on Oliver Stone's JFK and three IMAX scores; and composed for the Australian Ballet. Keyboards by classically trained, acclaimed jazz pianist Peter Schimke, who has provided musical direction for Academy Award nominee David Lynch and Julee Cruise. Rhythmic percussion, keyboards, bass, flutes, woodwinds, chants and exotic instrumentation create the prefect backdrop to a yoga class or that after-yoga get-together. Yoga/movement practitioners consulted in the creation of the music!

Album Description
In the second installment of the series, Connecting The Universe Music has released a new relaxing journey with Detaching The World Vol. 2 - Ambient music for massage/relaxation/meditation. Through exploration of the unconscious, this music was designed as an offering by the artist to bring about complete relaxation to the listener. It allows for the unknown self to awaken and remember with comfort and ease.
Musician and creator Emil Gagliardi brings to us nine new tracks with Vol. 2. This CD provides over 63 minutes in running time without the use of vocals or percussion. As the opening track "Peaceful Country" begins, Gagliardi's unique and inimitable style of ambient guitar immediately sets the tone for a tranquil relaxing atmosphere. On "Mirror", you feel yourself sinking deeper into the gentle hands of what the artist calls "The Nuit's Effect" while "The Fellowship" and "The Fellowship Reprise" are a meditation of three soothingly calm guitars journeying to the mystical unknown. "Hawaiian Compressions" is a three piece composition symbolizing the warming atmosphere of the sun while gently slipping into the earthy picturesque tones of "Healing Within". The last track, "Pulse", is the capture of a meditation right outside the artist's home where the ocean, mountains, and sky share one relaxed and rejuvenated heartbeat.
Emil Gagliardi continues to provide seekers of total relaxation with his unique and one of a kind style of music. As heard in the bestselling Detaching The World Vol. 1, his devotion to creating serene music for the healing arts goes unsurpassed by his peers. His music bestows upon the listener gentleness and ease like the inhalation and exhalation of the breath.
Customer Reviews:
Ambient Guitarist Emil Gagliardi Dazzles on Second Album.......2007-05-23
Emil Gagliardi shows what he's made of in this spectacular follow-up. Laying down atmospheric riffs and hypnotic patterns against a backdrop of lush guitar-generated textures, Gagliardi creates canyons of sound that seem to come from the heavens and reverberate across a vast stretch of land beneath a starry expanse of sky. Combining the guitar stylings of Andy Summers, Robert Fripp, Allan Holdsworth, and even George Harrison, Gagliardi forges a unique and unparalleled style all his own. [...]
Boss Time.......2007-01-10
I got this gift for my boss since he is so stressed at times. He closes his office door sometimes, pops the cd in and takes a minute for himself.
serene ambient guitar to help aid a stressful mind.......2004-10-27
Lately I've been submerging myself in yoga, morning meditation, T'ai Chi, and massage therapy to help my mind, body and spirit cope with the loss of a loved one. My sister (who raves about this artist) gave me this cd on my birthday in hopes that it would aid through the grieving process and help me relax.
Soon after my birthday, I finally had an afternoon to do nothing but try and unwind. I took my portable cd player outside with this cd and lied in my hammock. A few minutes after hitting play, I closed my eyes and had the most intense visualizations. It was as if each note from this music embraced my soul and projected a movie of warmth and comfort in my eyelids.
A few hours went by as I lay in my hammock listening to this cd repeat over and over. The calming effects of this music, combined with the hammock, had relaxed me beyond words. It was as if the stress detached my world (no pun intended).
As I look through the liner notes, I notice that this entire cd was created with guitars. Never in my life have I heard guitar sound so angelic and peaceful. All of this cd is great, yet the piece of music that comforts my heart the most is Pulse. Pulse has a calm heartbeat sound with this airy guitar melody that dances gently through the notes. Absoulutly beautiful!
I am bringing this cd to my next massage appointment in hopes that my therapist too will feel the heavenly ambiance that this music provides.
My client's favorite pick for bodywork!.......2004-06-06
Just got volume 2. Delicious! What an encore. Nicely divergent from Volume 1. It seems to be more 'grounded' than the prior work but still retaining the flavors of space. You can tell this artist respects the delicate atmosphere needed for massage. This cd is successful with a client who is beyond picky with his musical choices during our sessions. Muchas gracias!
the most creative musical journey.......2003-12-15
Having had so many incredible experiences listening and working with Detaching The World Vol. 1, I purchased Vol. 2 without hesitation. Although different from the first CD, the musicians style of meditative guitar transforms me and resonates with me similiar to Vol. 1. It seems as if the music puts me in a trance sending me to another place - a place where everything is calm and nothing can go wrong. My thoughts disappear and I capture the importance of being in every moment. This CD is mellow enough for deep relaxation yet also great music to play in the car on a long roadtrip. Either way it is definitely a journey that everyone should experience. I also find it important to listen from beginning to end without stopping - each track almost leads you to the next. It's as if a story is formed in track 1 that sends you wanting to know more in track 2. This continues until the "grand finale" which is a "heartbeat"-like song - sending you immediataly inward on your own journey. This is a beautiful CD.

Looking for great meditation music? Listen to Liquid Mind's assortment of musical meditation arrangements! I purchased Liquid Mind III years ago it's music became almost sacred to myself and other family members and friends. So, I purchased the entire series! Need I say more?!!!!
The music has a great "trademark" sound but each CD has it's own uniqueness. I found it was great anytime you need "background" music. I loved each and every CD by Liquid Mind and will treasure the music always. Thanks to Chuck Wild and all involved in the production of Liquid Mind!
ok massage music.......2007-03-31
It's a little slow and boring for my taste, but it provides for constant airy sound. Typical spa music.
JUST MELT.......2007-02-06
When the day is through and nothing is left but the thoughts of the day that you wish would go away put on this music. Close your eyes, your mind, and melt away on the soft liquid sounds of this calming energy. IT is so soothing I can forget my noise filled mind and find a cloud to stretch out onto and just be......nothing
Exactly what I was looking for.......2007-01-17
I always tried to relax by listening to classical music. Some classical is relaxing, but it can change tempo and volume often which I find distracting. This is much more calming then anything I've ever found. We have two of these cd's -- Reflection and Unity. I use it in the kitchen, or while I'm reading at bedtime. My 10-year-old listens to one at bedtime to help him calm down. I really love these cd's.
A perfect CD for Massage.......2006-04-14
As a massage therapist, it is really tough to find appropriate music for a session. This CD hits the mark. No singing, chanting, or other distracting bird calls. Just pure melodious tunes that flow from one song to the other. My clients love this CD and you will too.

Great except for the feedback........2007-06-14
I really enjoy this CD, and have listened to it regularly since purchase. However, several minutes into the first track, a noise starts that really sounds like feedback. It's harsh and a little irritating, but not intolerable. One thing to consider is that I've been listening to this on a poor quality clock radio/cd player. Perhaps it is unnoticeable when played on better equipment.
Really, really nice CD.......2007-06-08
This CD is really nice, helping to enter deep meditative stages. I particularly like the second track, which adds music to the traditional chant of OM, but both are beautiful.
Excellent CD! .......2007-04-09
My teacher started using these CDs in our classroom while we did some thinking and meditation exercises and I couldn't believe how relaxed I felt surrounded by 30 people. The vibes in the room were amazing and I immediately asked her, after class, what the CD was and where she had gotten it.
She showed me it was the Tamboura CD and said they were all available on Amazon. Now I have the Chanting Om, Tamboura, and Tibetan Singing Bowl. Each are wonderful and I highly recommend them!
great mediation music.......2007-03-30
great chanting for yoga or meditation especially since I'm not good at chanting myself. Very easy to focus on the sound. Highly recommended.
Fabulous CD for a variety of settings.......2007-03-29
There's one word to describe all three of the CDs that you sent us for review. Hypnotic.
We've listened to all of the CDs in a variety of settings.
Chanting Om is our favorite. We've played it on multiple occasions as low background music during work hours. It's soothing and rhythmic and transports the listener to a relaxed state.
It is also a fabulous CD to play while doing yoga; it helps keep you focused while holding poses.
Whether during meditation, yoga, or work, these cd's are perfect for anyone looking to achieve a state of peacefulness.

Great practice.......2007-05-04
I am so happy I found this cd! I started doing yoga at the gym about a month ago, but quickly found myself wanting something I could do anywhere, on the beach, in the woods, ect. I first bought Tracy Rich's Yoga Anywhere and was hugely disapointed as it was way too easy and could only be done in your home, not outside as she she asks you to use chairs, doorways, kitchen sinks ect.
This cd was my second try and I feel I got it right this time. The practice is challenging to me as a beginner which I like, I want to be able to practice and work on improving. I like that there are poses in this cd that I cannot already do. I feel like I've gotten a great workout after using this cd, one that comes close to actually going to class.
It will take some time of looking at the poses and coordinating the practice to know what she is telling me to do, but after a few times more of listening and looking I should have a great portable practice that I can do anywhere, anytime.
I am bringing this to Belize with me next month for the month so I can still do yoga even though I won't be able to make it to class. Thank you Shiva Rae!
awsome.......2006-12-21
I've had this CD set for about a year and a half now. It is one of the best investments I have made in my yoga practice. $20 is nothing for what this CD offers. Doing yoga at home to this CD, using combinations of various tracks has brought my yoga practice to a higher level. I notice it when I go to actual classes. It's nice to have the private space of one's home to work on poses. It's also nice to have guidance. So often I tell myself I'll just do the CD for 45 minutes. Next thing I know, it's an hour and 45 minutes later and I've just had a killer yoga session, feeling so much better than when I started. Shiva Rea has a great voice, great pacing, great music, great thoughts to inspire yoga practice, etc. This is a great way to save money on yoga classes. You can still go to class, just less often. I love that this is a CD rather than a DVD/video. I have no desire to do yoga with the TV on. Light some candles, set up your sacred yoga space, and get yoga-fied at home. Highly recommended.
soothing, rejuvinating, challenging.......2006-07-03
For anyone who craves a thorough yoga workout, but is still interested in a moderate and soothing journey, this is for you. Shiva's instructions are well-detailed and easy to follow. If you don't know the sanskrit names for the poses, you will begin to learn quite a few of them with this cd. There is both a solar practice cd and a lunar practice cd. The solar practice is energizing and challenging, while the lunar is perfect for unwinding after a stressful day at work. I highly recommend this for more intermediate practitioners. It is also a good challenge for the adventurous beginner as well. Enjoy!
Classic Shiva.......2006-03-26
Shiva Rea's "Yoga Sanctuary: A Guided Hatha Yoga Practice" is fantastic for yoga on the go. This vocally guided practice is well rounded out from beginning to end. The spotlight review nicely covers every aspect of each track, so I won't repeat that. I really like that it suggests track sequences for sessions ranging from 20 minutes to about 60 minutes. Shiva dictates in her classic soothing voice with it's impeccable timing making transitions from pose to pose as smooth as can be. You will love how you feel after you've done this!
As with any at-home yoga video, it's essential that you are familiar with naming of postures, otherwise you can really injure yourself. With that said, I recommend this for intermediate level and up. If you're a Shiva fan, you will enjoy this great portable yoga work-out.
More conscientious instruction required.......2006-03-20
While I like the basic idea of this CD set, it seems to be appropriate only for people who don't really require much instruction or advance warning about which pose to move into. The transitions between poses are sometimes very awkward, occasionally because there isn't enough time to move into the pose, at other times because Ms Rea does not coordinate her instructions for body movement well with breathing, and finally at other times because the pose to be moved into is ambiguously described so that it just isn't clear where to put what part of the body where.
Those who may wish to compensate that fact by looking at the poses pictured in the poster included with the CD will find that several transitional stages of a pose or flow sequence are simply not pictured. So if you are new to vinyasa yoga, you will probably find yourself feeling inadequately guided. In addition to the audio description and the photo collage sometimes wanting, it is apparent that Ms Rea does not take care to ensure that both sides of the body are worked for an equal length of time. There is a clear emphasis on the right side of the body, which leaves the afterimpression that the body has been given rather lopsided attention during the workout.
Given all these limitations, my conclusion is that there are other, more effective home yoga practices on the market now. This practice is alright, but only alright, for people who are not new to yoga and preferably who have already had an introduction into vinyasa yoga somewhere else.
