How<\/strong> Yoga Music<\/strong> Supports Breath Awareness<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Good yoga music works like a gentle metronome<\/a>. A slow, steady rhythm invites you to lengthen your inhale and exhale without forcing it. Chants make this even easier, because you naturally breathe in, then release the breath along with the sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a peaceful song in the background, shut your eyes and count four slow beats to breathe in and four to breathe out. Let the sound of the music lead the way. As you continue to breathe, your mind will often find its focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Create a<\/strong> Yoga Music<\/strong> Playlist for Your Practice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A good yoga music playlist follows the shape of your class. You begin quietly, build gently, and then slow down again. Here is a simple way to place all 20 songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
