Breathe
the Sky
Order: CD, Download and Meditation Packages
My friends, I’m so pleased to make available
my first collection of spoken word meditations. I’ve been working on
these for a few years now and began by first making meditations to help
friends who were going through difficult circumstances, anxiety, illness
or stress, some who were having a hard time falling asleep. In each case
I found that my meditations helped. And so I began to build off of the
love I shared in trying to assist my friends in creating this collection
for every one.
I
often meditate an hour or so, but I found through experience that most
people are not going to start with that kind of commitment. So I started
with shorter meditations; long enough to truly calm and clear, short
enough to not seem like something you would always need to put off. Some
of these come in two lengths so that as you grow you may want to use the
longer version sometimes. I can tell you that you will discover over
time that the longer you stay in that quiet inner space, the more it
will feed your life with feelings of gratitude and well being. Yet, if
you only stay forever with ten minute meditations, I know for certain
that your life will be better.
 While I had meditated off and on in my life
through the years, it is in this last five years of frequently listening
to guided meditations that my life has changed, evolved and become so
much fuller and lighter. It really happens, my friends. You will start
to feel lighter day to day. In fact, when you meditate, and your
thoughts lessen to where there is more space where frantic racing
thoughts usually fill your mind, light will automatically pour in. There
are actual brain scans which show this happening, measuring over the
days as a person starts to meditate and then continues to. It’s
astonishing that you can see the brain and body lit up with more light.
You begin to accumulate light and that changes everything. Your mood and
feelings of well being, your health, your level of brilliance in all
areas that you engage. But most of all, I have found more connection
with life and other people. I care more, I feel more grateful and I
marvel more at the wonder of Life.
This collection comes with an introduction to
help you start. And if you’re a long time meditator, I believe you’ll
enjoy new facets of the experience that will open for you. At my
Meditation Gatherings, I’ve had many experienced meditators tell me that
they left there seeing meditation in a new light and were excited to
practice it with those new perspectives.
If in your process you sometimes wish to ask me
something, anything, just email me and I will do my best to share
insights and experience. And I am always writing online about meditation
and life, sharing the endless aspects that I feel called to share with
everyone around me. Thank you for reading this and visiting my website.
Much peace and many blessings to you,
~Michael

This recording is easily the length of a
double CD. All of these titles will not fit on a CD, which technically
only can hold almost 80 minutes of audio. I have not decided how I will
configure yet, just know that any meditation that is not on your CD,
will be emailed to you. All CD orders receive a free Download of the
entire album.

Run Like the River Runs
- 2 versions, 12 and 21
min
This meditation is an extension of my song of
the same name. Since my first album came out I 1985, it has been a
song that many thousands of people have cherished and used as a
touchstone. It came to me surrounded by trees in the Cascade
Mountains and in this meditation I have added wind through the trees
to soothe and inspire you and mesmerize you into your true nature —
which is as much a part of Nature as boulders and rivers and trees
and meadows. Just be present, be in that place where the wind makes
the leaves sing. That is enough. In the open places where I am not
speaking, imaging yourself spilling over the confines of your body
and expanding into everywhere. Your imagination is powerful, there
is no limit.

Hope Whispers / A Good Life - 2
versions, 10 and 16 min
This meditation is based on the music and
message of my song, “A Good Life”, which so many people tell me is a
spiritual, emotional, hope filled touch stone for them. “To all you
souls who’ve lost your hope, when the world you dreamed about is
falling down. . . “ My intention is again to bring you into Nature
and to use music to help you flow in that space. Your hope has not
passed you by. When you bring meditation into your life on a regular
basis, you are going to be surprised where you start to see hope. It
will show up everywhere.

Peace in Traffic / Breathe It In - 6 min
This non-meditation makes me smile. Partly
because I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song! It’s my song, “Breathe It In”
from my House of Sky album. I say non-meditation because the last thing I want
to do is to cause you to go into a trance behind the wheel. This one
is to keep on your phone and use like a tool. Lighten your mood,
give you a better perspective and help you to drive in safe ways
when you’re in frustrating traffic.
- All Good
Things - 21 minutes
This is my newest meditation, based on a
friend’s request for a meditation which would include something
hopeful and calming that would enhance creativity and inner
brilliance and a sense of deeper, soulful connection to Life. It was
a wonderful guide for me as I allowed these words to come through,
resting upon a magnificent piece of music I had commissioned from a
man in Nepal who goes by HealingHz. Seriously.
- The Prayer of
Sleep -
10 min
A lush and beautiful dreamscape for falling calmly and peacefully to
sleep or just drifting in the inviting oasis of music and surf and
gently spoken words.
- Music of Water and
Wind -
21 min
An oceanside landscape of falling surf,
magnificent Koshi Wind Chimes which are so pure in tone that they
bring feelings of peace instantly. An invitation to make a deeper,
more soulful connection with all living things, with water and wind
and the feelings in your own heart.
