Yoga is an ancient traditional Vedic art and philosophy of maintaining a balance between human mind, body and soul. The main aim of this soulful practice is attaining the highest level of spiritualism as well as living a healthy life. Yoga helps to build a connection between the individual soul and the divine soul, the Atma with the Paramatma. To achieve this aim, one needs to invoke his/her self-consciousness and self-awareness. Various forms of yoga, particularly Kundalini yoga, awakens the inner-self. This self-consciousness does not mean just thinking about one’s ownself, but to liberate the mind from such narrow boundaries and merge oneself with the super cosmic power. To reach this state of awareness a deeper level of concentration is required which can only be achieved through meditation. By warding off all the unnecessary thoughts, it helps the mind to relax and focus on a single point of thinking. Music can play a significant role in practicing both yoga and meditation. Some specific genres of music like yoga music and meditation music accelerate the mind by effecting the human energy system.

Music has the universal power of healing the soul. It can move the human soul with its various forms. When some music calms down the mind, some make it goes wild. Om is such a primordial sound which resonates through all creation. Calming music alleviates tensions, depression, anxieties and stresses from the capricious or volatile mind, thus helping it to relax and calm down. From time immemorial, music has been incorporated in yoga practicing for such effects of music on human brain and mind. Contemporary yoga music is also used for the same purposes like to relax and to concentrate. The spiritual content of such kind of music evokes a sense of ethereal calmness. The soulful melodies create a serene atmosphere which is perfect for a yoga session. Some music even contains powerful devotional chanting which creates a bond between the mortal being and the heavenly being.
