Relaxing With Mindful Harp Music

By Richard Howard


It was once said that if music be the food of love, play on. Whether reading Shakespeare or not, mindful harp music allows one the chance to unwind whilst listening to the awesomeness of this amazing instrument. It is not easy relaxing whilst one is busy doing the endless chores that make up any given day so with this in mind, time out must be planned in order to do just this.

The mind can have millions of thoughts running through it from images to plenty of other thoughts that come in and out of it. It is time to quieten it down with a meaningful exercise that one can practice every day of the week and month. It allows the practitioner time to unwind and just be whilst practicing an art that has been around for centuries.

If one is looking for a more meaningful experience whilst playing harp pieces, then there is a way to do just this in the comfort of the home. It is something that should be worked into the day's schedule as it is a way of relieving stress which everybody needs. The way to do this is to lay down on a comfortable surface, ideally on one's back, and take in the sounds of this amazing instrument.

Whilst breathing slowly and deeply one allows oneself the chance of monitoring what is going on with the rest of the body. It is best to do this throughout the meditation session and work on inhaling deeply into the stomach and then exhaling slowly. Try not to force this but merely do this for about five minutes.

One will be amazed at the millions of thought processes that are going on. From flashing images and other thoughts, try to picture a letter of the alphabet with a backdrop of white light. This helps slow the mind down whilst trying to keep this image in the mind's eye. One must not be concerned if one cannot maintain the image for a long period of time when it is replaced by other thoughts but must calmly bring it back into focus when one can.

It is best to allow the mind to wander and then try picturing something and keeping it in the mind's eye. This may seem difficult to do at first as the picture may be replaced by another image or thought. It is advisable to keep trying to return to the picture that one is imagining but not to fight for it to stay there.

It is never too late to start. Playing this type of music helps do just that. Taking time out is essential to healthy living.

Doing meaningful exercises such as this goes a long way in improving the way one feels about oneself. The harp is a great instrument and its music divine. There is no better place to start relaxing than with it.
