This is a mindful listening exercise that will allow you to sharpen your focusing skills by listening to a unique musical composition for the piano. The practice is based on a study byDivya Sinha, H. Ramacharndra and A. Lobo: The effect of mindful music listening on attention, and on my personal experience as a composer and sound designer. The exercise will start after a short introduction. If you wish to practice more, the music from this audio will be available on my page.

Transcript

Hello and welcome to this unique exercise.

After this short introduction you'll start the practice audio.

I hope you're in a quiet and comfortable place and would like to recommend using headphones for a better audio experience.

This exercise can be used for relaxation,

Stress relief or mindful listening practice.

The piano has a wide spectrum of sounds ranging from low to high.

During this exercise you'll listen to a musical composition that uses the low and high ranges of the piano.

Your goal will be to focus on this single repeating note in the middle range and sustain your focus on it over time.

To make things simple we'll start with the lower sounds in your left ear,

The higher sounds in your right ear and the center of your attention will be in the middle.

A few minutes into the exercise the stereo image of the sounds will change gradually to test and improve your focusing ability.

The music from this exercise will be available on my page on Insight Timer and I do hope you'll find it useful for your practice.

Enjoy!
