Album Description
May 12, 2005 UPDATE: The Ease of Being CD has now been re-mastered for improved audio quality.
The soothing voice and deeply relaxing music on the Ease of Being restore a centered state of awareness and support healing. The meditations encourage trust in the natural flow of life, leading to greater physical, mental and emotional ease. The instructions suggest that you "
simply allow the words and music to wash over you
It is not necessary to understand, or even hear, all the words". Instead of asking you to focus on specific instructions or images, these meditations gently guide the mind to relax completely. In this relaxed state, healing can happen naturally and effortlessly.
Once referred to as "meditations without borders", the Ease of Being does not represent any particular tradition. It gives you the freedom to relax into your own, unique healing journey. One customer stated, "These meditations are unique - you can just float with them". If you listen with an open mind and heart, The Ease of Being can take you straight to the "heart of healing"!
Customer Reviews:
Wonderful!.......2007-07-24
This CD and others from the same folks have been a great help to me. I work at a high stress job I love, but often at work had trouble keeping myself on an even keel. I would get upset or bent out of shape fairly easily. Meditation was suggested by my doctor, but my mind flies around too much to do it on my own. These guided meditation CDs are wonderful!!! I sit in my car at lunch and listen daily. They are very easy to listen to and use. I find myself so relaxed, I actually doze off! My boss has even complimented me on my sudden ability to remain in control...almost nothing gets under my skin anymore!
Works Better the Longer You Use It.......2007-06-13
When I first listened to this CD I wasn't sure if it was helping me to relax. But as I continued to use it I began to notice a calming and soothing effect that continued afterward. It has now become a favorite of mine for chilling out and also as a prelude to a great night's sleep. Highly recommended.
Gentle yet remarkably effective.......2007-06-05
Mary's meditations have been a great help to me during a time when life has been difficult. She advises to "let the words wash over you" and that works well when I don't try to focus on the specific words but just relax and let whatever happen. The music is also extremely soothing (check out Richard's CD:Pure Light: Music for Meditation & Relaxation). Overall a wonderful way to kick back and distance myself from all the craziness.
Fall Asleep While Listening.......2007-05-22
I got this for stress issues, but every time I listen to it I can't get past the first few minutes without falling asleep. Very relaxing voice and music!
Excellent Guided Meditations.......2007-05-09
There are many guided meditation tapes available out there. For me, this is one of the best, although I imagine different approaches/voices/styles work better for different people. The Ease of Being is unique in that it gently guides you to a place of less effort and a letting go of the need to control. This results in a very deep and relaxing experience. I also feel the music enhances the effect of relaxation, allowing the listener to "float" away to a peaceful place.

HORRIBLE! Hip Hoppy, Jazz Improv style to chants sucks!.......2007-08-04
The real reason I bought this was because I'm a big Steven Halpern fan and all of his stuff is great; who knew this Lama Surya Das (Long Island boy) would mess this CD up. I never return cds but this was so lousy I am most definitely returning it. A waste of my time, listening and most importantly ENERGY.
Average but ok.......2007-06-20
I liked one main song, but the thing i didn't like was the fact that theres about 5 songs and the track listed as having 13 songs. Its just a repeat of the same songs. Its kind of disappointing... But the sound is great. I just wish there were more mantras on the sound track...
Great CD.......2005-08-23
This is a CD of Lama Surya Das chanting in Tibetan over Steve Halpern's beats. Don't know what to say except that if you like this kind of thing, this is an excellent CD. I have listened to it many times at home and in the car. It will put you int a meditative state listening and singing along to the chants. Love it.
Chants, not just for breakfast anymore ...........2005-05-29
This is a great cd to listen to in the car on the way to or from work or any other stressful engagement requiring chill time. Ok its got an American twist and yes Lama Surya Das is after all an American Lama. He's a gift to us all in the land of SUV's, faster cheaper better and Super sized everything.
I Love It.......2004-03-04
Track 3 (Female Buddha Tara's Mantra) and 4 (Seven Line Prayer) are my absolute favorites on this unusual & unique CD. Sure it's a bit different from the common sounds we might be accustomed to hearing in the category we are obviously pursuing here: Buddhist chants and music. But different isn't bad. Not that tradition is not good to stick to, but occasionally it is nice to hear a bright and new example of these ancient chants. I personally found this entire CD to be a terrific companion to meditation at times, and the opening track "Jewel and the Lotus Sutra" has such a wonderful rhythm to it. I mean, I don't recommend listening to music every time you sit down to meditate, but occasionally it's a nice and calming experience to be had. So here is one reviewer who is kind of amazed by all of the bad reviews this CD is getting. This CD has a "healing" effect in some senses, a trait commonly associated with mantras and Tibetan lamas. Stephen Halpern brings to the table his unique style of "healing sound" for us. Sure it has a hip-hop feel, but it's done extremely well! I hope you enjoy it and are willing to give this a try.

Customer Reviews:
So-so..........2006-10-17
I have many CD's of this genre by many different artists and would have to say that this is definitley not one of the best. I would have to disagree with listeners who find this CD such superb meditation music. The Gordons have some decent material out there but with this one they just seem to try too hard. Instead of peaceful and flowing, the CD is just too "busy"...kind of forcing itself on you. It's just not that soothing or calming-too much going on and the sounds of music/nature are just not blended well. They seem to exist separately, almost competing with each other for the listener's attention rather than providing a harmonious atmosphere. If you're looking for meditative material, I would probably not recommend this one.
Heart of Peace delivers real stress-relief.......2003-08-03
This is one of those CDs that just don't come out of the CD player for a long time once you put it in. There is something so soothing and beautifully ambient about this music that I have yet to tire of it at all. Once it is playing, it's warmth and spirit fill my home in the most pleasing way. It is rare that I find music which so effects me. No matter how stressed out I am, once I hear this, my thoughts begin quiet and my body relaxes. I find myself listening while doing things around the house, reading, talking on the phone, and doing yoga, but my favorite is to listen at bedtime. This is the perfect music for relaxing before bed or even to go to sleep to, which is what I do often. I have also enjoyed other healing music CDs from the Gordons such as Garden of Serenity, or Sanctuary, so I knew I would probably like this one too. That not only turned out to be true, but they seem to just keep getting better and better. Highest Recommendation.
Here is the perfect album to relax with!.......2003-06-27
Here is the perfect album to relax with! The opening track, Healing Ocean, begins and continues with the recurrent and soothing sound of ocean waves upon a beach, the sound of seagulls and a gently orchestrated symphonic synthesizer, allowing me to go wherever I want and feel the healing sounds of nature upon my being. On Flow of Harmony, abundant wild birds chirp and sing, a soothing stream flows and tumbles and ambient musical textures lend abundant peace and relaxation, taking me to a harmonious and blissful, magical and paradisiacal place. On Awakening Peace, lakeside water rhythmically laps against the shoreline with delightful and diverse birdsong, and ambient piano and keyboards lull me into a perfectly peaceful environment. I highly recommend this album for relaxing or for any healing, yoga or spa experience!
Heart of Peace is Refreshingly Serene.......2003-06-25
Okay, so I am a huge fan of the Gordon brothers and have been for years, but that shouldn't lessen the fact that I absolutely love their latest release, Heart of Peace, which I just finished listening to. As a long time healing practioner I know that creating the right ambience for my sessions is incredibly important; that's why I have been successfully utilizing the Gordon's music for well over a decade in my practice. This new release marks the debut of their Art of Healing series and I am really looking forward to what lies ahead, if this is any example of what I can expect. Heart of Peace offers over an hour of deeply relaxing and incredibly soothing ambient music set against lush environmental soundscapes of ocean waves, birdsong and gently running streams and goes deeper into the realms the Gordon's have explored in previous releases such as Garden of Serenity, one of my favorite titles, ever. I highly recommend this CD for healers and bodyworkers. My wife has been using this for her Yoga sessions as well and loves it. It's perfect for dropping into a tranquil place deep within your own heart of peace.
Good working CD for practitioners.......2003-06-24
A super meditative or "working" background CD from the Art of Healing Series from Sequoia Records. The Gordons are known for their wonderful collection of Sacred Drum CDs - Sacred Earth Drums, Sacred Drum Visions, Drum Prayer. This work is in a very different vein. It blends nature sounds with ambient music to create a soothing flow. Strong on the synths and keyboards here. There are only three tracks on the disc with a total time of 61:09, just the right length for a yoga or meditation session, spa treatments, a Tarot reading or a body work session. It is peaceful, yet evocative and joyful to listen to. It is a CD that I can drop in the player and hit the repeat button to take me through a series of clients without feeling that I NEED to change the music. I have a wide collection of New Age music and yet am happy to add this one to my library.

East & West Do Meet.......2003-06-26
This album is everything they say it is! With artists like, Chloe Goodchild, Bhagavan Das, Deva Premal, Jai Uttal, Gabrielle Roth, Boris Grebenshikov, DJ Cheb I Sabbah and Survana, how can it not be ... you have artists from different genres, background and traditions with one main focus, The Essence of Feminine Spirituality.
I don't know what I like more (or even if I can like one more than the other), the beats or the vocals. Deeply hypnotic and passionate.... I highly recommend this album.
