In Tune: Music as the Bridge to Mindfulness

In Tune: Music as the Bridge to Mindfulness
In our noisy world, music is the key to inner silence

Richard Wolf first tried Zen meditation in his teens, but no matter in what posture or for how long he sat, transcendence proved stubbornly out of reach. It was only years later that he found the bridge that could take him there: music.

In Tune charts twelve â€œbridgesâ€â€”skills and sensibilities refined in musical practice that carry over to mindfulness and meditation, among them:
- Concentration
- Posture
- Harmony
- Silence
- The Art of Deep Listening
- Transcending the Self
This inspirational guide offers a wealth of music-based exercises to enhance daily meditation and creativity. Plus, Wolf shares personal anecdotes of eminent musiciansâ€”from Miles Davis to Dr. Dreâ€”to illuminate points along the intersection of music and mindful living.

As you begin to move fluidly between these two transformative disciplines, youâ€™ll notice the focus, composure, and peacefulness that comes from practiceâ€”as well as the joys of tuning in to the music all around you, and to the symphony that plays silently from within.
