   Amazing Grace

On Part One (tracks 1 to 4_ you will learn breathing and relaxation techniques to empty your mind of all distracting thoughts and ego chatter. All words and directions have come directly from previous meditations found in my book, Holy Moments. 

Part Two (track 4) is a transitional track using a “song-chant” called “God is My Source” as a way of maintaining a state of bliss through repeating a simple thought expressed as a personal song. Try it yourself. Create your own affirmation song-chant. It can calm nerves, reduce anxiety and generally assist in regaining your present moment emotional/spiritual balance in times of distress, anxiety, anger or fear.

Part Three (track 5) is a short transition to totally independent mediation and is followed by five tracks of pure mediation music with environmental sound elements. You are encouraged to welcome God’s presence in the present moment.  First step? Demand ego’s departure. Then welcome spirit in. When you feel ready, take pad and pen and begin to write. Don’t think, just write. Do not be either amazed or disappointed. Be committed and persistent.

Part Four (tracks 6 to 10) provide mediation background music with wind chimes, Tibetan bells environmental sounds, the Totonka drum, crystal bowls, guitar, backup vocals and keyboard. 

Track Six is "Letting Go; Letting God" (7:00)
Track Seven is "Ode to Hawk" (9:51)
Track Eight is "Heart Connection" (7:00)
Track Nine is "Peace Amid the Storm" (10:00)
Track Ten is "Amazing Grace" (3:00)
