“Songs That Help You Float”
— Edamame
For me, Yoga is about connecting your mind, body, breath and spirit. For any music lover like me on the mat, the soundtrack and ambience we set for that one golden hour where we can take a breath and connect with ourselves can really take our practice to another level.
From teachers looking to set the right ambience for their classes, to yogis practising at home, drowning out the washing machine and getting in the zone. This list is based on my own experiences of yoga practice and how the right sounds, tones, rhythms and pace can complement and enhance practice.
Using components of typical class structures; moving from slow meditative grounding, through awakening and energetic flows, to gentle unwinding and blissful endings. Dynamic, contemporary, flowing sounds with an emphasis on creativity, playfulness and always aiming to focus the mind on the body and breath.
This is a list for all the Yogis, but extends to anyone looking to get in touch with body and breath, to dance, to feel the flow of life, to meditate…music is therapeutic and we can also just close our eyes, look inwards and sink into the sounds.

Of Course It’s All Things – Lowercase Noises

Seeped in the simplicity of one synthesizer and one guitar, there is a gentle warmth to the swelling, sweeping musical vistas in Of Course It’s All Things. There is a sense of peace found in simply slowing down – so move slow and listen long.
