Music is a new entrant in two age old practices – yoga and meditation. Both these two meditative disciplines have been practiced for the last 5,000 years. Since Vedic era till date, human beings are reaping myriad benefits of the ancient Eastern art, Yoga. Meditation is an intellectual part of this physical practice. When some refer yoga as a physical art, some people say it is a Vedic philosophy. Even for its scientific base, yoga is also perceived as a science of health and healing. In a word, yoga is a boon for the whole human race from every perspective. The main aim of both yoga and meditation is to help an individual reach a higher level of self-consciousness by creating a balance between mind, body and soul. Music only elevates mind sensations with its healing and calming effect.

Yoga music and meditation music are two such types used respectively for two different practices. In meditation, mind needs to be free from all unwanted thoughts. It is only possible by soothing and relaxing the mind. And this is the sole purpose of meditation music, healing the human mind and body from various emotional and psychological imbalances.
