This is a meditation about music,
So take a moment to pause and listen to any music that might be in the area,
Or perhaps maybe after this meditation,
Go ahead and turn on your favorite album from from when you were a teenager.
Get that song that you can't get out of your head and really listen to it.
Sit back and enjoy the piece of art that someone made just for you.
Slow down to get your earpods and click play,
And just notice how your body starts to relax as you hear the melody of the song,
As you pay attention to all of the instruments that start to play,
All in this enchanting melody that's played by someone out there,
Someone who practiced,
Who rehearsed,
And really put in their heart and soul into playing their part in the song.
Listen to how the instruments and the sounds blend together,
How they come in at just the right time,
And just let yourself surrender to the flow of the song as everything comes together and the sound waves,
Releasing at just the right beats and just the right moments,
Pull you in and give you a human felt experience.
Maybe you start to rock to the rhythm,
Maybe it brings to mind a memory of what this song makes you think of,
That's from years ago,
From when you were younger.
Maybe it makes something in you soften or come alive with a thrill,
With a longing,
With an energy,
All because of this piece of art put out for you,
Just so that you get to enjoy it,
You get to relate to it,
You get to dance to it,
Sing to it,
Rock out to it,
Bring back memories to it,
Share it.
Let yourself enjoy it,
Because this song was made for moments like this,
For you to listen,
For you to absorb,
And for you to feel it,
Connect to it,
Relate with it.
All the intention put into the music,
Just so you can have moments like these.
So slow down,
Enjoy,
This is for you.
