Music to soothe the soul

Three months ago, I posted a list with songs to uplift the spirit.
Yesterday, I remembered another need: to soothe the soul.
So here are some songs to help you clear your mind and relax.

The first one is my all time favorite, one that works for me every time

The next is one was designed with specific rhythms, tones, frequencies and intervals to relax the listener. It is said to be "the most relaxing song in the world"

Let the sound of this Gregorian chant soothe you

Although the previous two are scientifically proven or widely used, here is another favorite - the magic of three guitar virtuosos

From guitar to the pure vibrations of the Didgeridoo. If you are into deep meditation, you will love this

Terry Oldfield's music from the heart

If none of the above work for you, no worries. We will always have Dire Straits :)

Music to Uplift the Spirit

Music: an art form whose medium is silence and sound. The word originates from the greek μουσική, the "art of the Muses".
Used properly it is an excellent medium that can smooth our soul and uplift our spirit.

Here are some of my favorite pieces that work fine for me:

My wake up tune, from one of my favorite musicals

From the land of the Incas

Anything from Hatzidakis and The Clouds in particular

An old recording from Stampen Jazz Club in Stockholm

Miriam Makeba and Pata Pata

An ... anthem

Any uplifting song needs some sunshine

Can you honestly not sing, dance, or even smile with this one? 

And remember, when life gets you down...
