Nada Yoga
Nada yoga means "union through sound". It is yoga that looks at sounds and music (or the absence of sound) in yoga practice. In nada yoga, a person may focus on anahata nada, or inaudible sounds. It is the sound that is found within the body, rather than heard with the ear. Nada yoga may also include the use of chants. The use of music can assist in the practice of nada yoga. It should be simple music. People can practice nada yoga by focusing their attention on this simple music for a certain period (around 15 minutes) every day.
Yoga Music as Background for Yoga
Yoga meditation music or yoga relaxation music can be very good as background music for yoga, particularly for beginner yoga practitioners. Yoga music helps relax the mind and prevents it from getting distracted. Special yoga CDs will help bring the mental and spiritual benefits associated with yoga, as well as the physical benefits. Yoga music can also be used as background music for other tasks. Used in this way, they help keep the mind relaxed and focused during the day.
Types of Yoga Music
Many different types of music can be used for yoga workouts. Music for yoga should be relaxing, slow and relatively simple. Slow music for yoga can include:
- Special yoga CDs;
- World music;
- American flute music;
- Meditation music;
- Classic music;
- Nature relaxation CDs;
- Celtic music.
Music that is designed for use in yoga is usually best, as this music will specifically aim at providing the right background for a yoga workout. However, you can also try other music that is not aimed at yoga if you believe it would be good in a yoga workout. You should choose music that you enjoy, but not something that you enjoy so much that it will take your mind off your yoga workout. Stay away from music you dislike, as this will not be relaxing for you.
