Sound Meditation

This Moment Records is pleased to present this listening meditation series titled, “Embodying Wonder,” which includes four 20 minute sound sessions each focused on an element (Earth, Water, Fire, and Air), and one longer recording (Elemental Wonder) that includes all four shorter sessions into one continuous piece. 

The listening meditation sessions were produced by Kristen Blinne, Ph.D., certified yoga and meditation teacher and Associate Professor of Communication at SUNY Oneonta, and Tenali Hrenak, radio producer and sound designer, Muddy Boots Radio. Funding for this project was generously provided by the Research Foundation for the State University of New York. These recordings may be shared freely and presented publicly for non-commercial purposes only.

Each meditation is designed to create a relaxing, deep listening experience, featuring a range of sounds, including: crystal and Himalayan singing bowls and drone instruments such as shruti boxes and an ocarina, along with chimes, gongs, and field recordings from a variety of locations.
