The drummming is harmonious to your heart beat. Shamanic Dream, Vol. Perfect for background or for pure relaxation. 2 (2002) is the perfect instrumental (with some chanting) album for a mellow and relaxing trip to wherever your imagination can take you. The album has a tinkly sound somewhat like rain which runs throughout. Can be used for meditation, contemplation, yoga, or any sort of relaxation or spirituality one might practice. Take the trip.
I have listened to Shamanic Dream I for about six months, and love the CD. I am a regular yoga practitioner, but also a stay at home mom with all the din, stress, and drama surrounding the life of two small children. I can listen to my kids ask questions, make dinner, do a few rounds of Surya Namaskar A, all the while with the steady thump of Shamanic Dream II playing and it is like I have been given a sedative. Yet, it was better than the first and I knew I had to get it. My breath slows down almost to an Ujjayi depth, dinner is completed, and everything is calm.The trancelike, methodical beat does not put me to sleep, but centers me, energizes me, and calms me all at the same time. I debated for a while - so many reviews said it was too similar to the first one. But when my yoga teacher recently played Shamanic Dream II in class, I knew it was Shamanic Dream - it had that distinctic sound. I put this CD on in the kitchen, and everybody and everything tones down.
But since I loved the first one, I thought why not have more of a good thing.I was not disappointed. I love this CD for a number of reasons, but the main reason is it puts me in a completely relaxed mood. In fact, tonight, I had to ask my husband to please not disturb my mellow and get out of the kitchen because he was rushing around in there trying to "help" with dinner. Highly recommended.
This is very similiar to the first Shamanic Dream but unlike what other reviewers have said I do think it is different. I like both--this one has more vocals though they are very subtle(chanting Om Shanti) Both have a very dream like trance inducing quality-- my favorites of this genre. I do not like to use this one for my acupressure and massage clients though because of the chanting.
this is my favorite for massage, deep deep deep, trance but not dance. track number two takes me very far inside. a masterpiece, my favorite of anugama's work and i have probably seven of his albums. shamanic dream first is great too but this one. meditation, yoga, massage etc this sets a VERY high standard. enjoy.
I am very pleased with this CD and highly recommend to anyone who enjoys relaxing, meditating and being in touch with spirit. Awesome music
