Good working CD for practitioners

"A super meditative or "working" background CD from the Art of Healing Series from Sequoia Records. The Gordons are known for their wonderful collection of Sacred Drum CDs - Sacred Earth Drums, Sacred Drum Visions, Drum Prayer. This work is in a very different vein. It blends nature sounds with ambient music to create a soothing flow. Strong on the synths and keyboards here. There are only three tracks on the disc with a total time of 61:09, just the right length for a yoga or meditation session, spa treatments, a Tarot reading or a body work session. It is peaceful, yet evocative and joyful to listen to. It is a CD that I can drop in the player and hit the repeat button to take me through a series of clients without feeling that I NEED to change the music. I have a wide collection of New Age music and yet am happy to add this one to my library."

Here is the perfect album to relax with!

"Here is the perfect album to relax with! The opening track, Healing Ocean, begins and continues with the recurrent and soothing sound of ocean waves upon a beach, the sound of seagulls and a gently orchestrated symphonic synthesizer, allowing me to go wherever I want and feel the healing sounds of nature upon my being. On Flow of Harmony, abundant wild birds chirp and sing, a soothing stream flows and tumbles and ambient musical textures lend abundant peace and relaxation, taking me to a harmonious and blissful, magical and paradisiacal place. On Awakening Peace, lakeside water rhythmically laps against the shoreline with delightful and diverse birdsong, and ambient piano and keyboards lull me into a perfectly peaceful environment. I highly recommend this album for relaxing or for any healing, yoga or spa experience!"

Heart of Peace is Refreshingly Serene

"Okay, so I am a huge fan of the Gordon brothers and have been for years, but that shouldn't lessen the fact that I absolutely love their latest release, Heart of Peace, which I just finished listening to. As a long time healing practioner I know that creating the right ambience for my sessions is incredibly important; that's why I have been successfully utilizing the Gordon's music for well over a decade in my practice. This new release marks the debut of their Art of Healing series and I am really looking forward to what lies ahead, if this is any example of what I can expect. Heart of Peace offers over an hour of deeply relaxing and incredibly soothing ambient music set against lush environmental soundscapes of ocean waves, birdsong and gently running streams and goes deeper into the realms the Gordon's have explored in previous releases such as Garden of Serenity, one of my favorite titles, ever. I highly recommend this CD for healers and bodyworkers. My wife has been using this for her Yoga sessions as well and loves it. It's perfect for dropping into a tranquil place deep within your own heart of peace."
