Also, the tempo should probably best be not fast and be steady, again, not to distract you or keep your mind in a more active state.
So my guess is that it has to be somewhat background music, ambient if you will, with no sudden high pitched sounds or instruments that catch your attention.
Sum that up and you'll end up with soft classical music, well that's what I would favor anyway.
A little personal sidenote: maybe it's better to change the thread title from 'IM' to 'Intention-Manifestation'? Or was that too long? I know I didn't get it the first time..) |
Ok, here's the deal.....
By now, most of you know that I use something called a LifeVision, a very very detailed manifestation of my ideal life in all areas of life (spiritual, physical, relationship, financial etc). I also RECORD it and listen to it daily with music in the background. (maybe you read my story in How have manifestations worked in your life THREAD!)
Anyways.....Music is a vital key to the whole thing. If I could have chosen any music for "my creed"....trust me, I would have recorded it to CREED (the rock group!...since I'm such a rocker). However, that would have been dumb, because there is a certain type of music...called Baroque music...the slow, boring classical kind that I use to my advantage. It's not about musical preference, it's about POWER!
Baroque music, often refered to as Accelerated Learning music or Super-learning music has the characterisitic of putting you in ALPHA, the meditative term for being relaxed and calm. In this state of Alpha, you are 10X more receptive to "learning" or accepting new information.
The biggest benefit that I have seen from using Music in my LifeVision is that it takes it to my subconscious where otherwise I would have to LISTEN to it consciously to have it work. Because of the music, I don't have to focus as intently on my Lifevision (the words in it). I can multi-task and get a bit distracted and it's still working. Now granted, if I concentrate HARD, it's going to both the subconsious and my MIND is consciously hearing it....double benefit. My since my recording of my LifeVision is 28 minutes, it's hard to focus intently on that day after day after day. It's my habit to listen to it daily....but because of the Baroque music, I multi-task while I'm listening to it.....exercise, drive, ski, etc.
I KNOW IT"S POWERFUL....but I also know that any type of music wouldn't have the same effect. As long as the music has 40-60 beats per minute, it's good for affirmations...it's the same beat as your heart rate, basically.
If it's faster, it has no "super-learning" power. That's why I ALWAYS use Baroque music...it's the Bach and Mozart type music. Maybe you've heard of the Mozart Method...?? And like I said...not my favorite type of music...but who cares!!!!
