There's nothing like new yoga music! If you're a chant lover, you're used to singing songs over and over again, so falling in love with new favorites is an exciting treat! These are the top 5 yoga music albums that I'll be giving as gifts this holiday season.
Everything Snatam Kaur does is lovely. There's something within her voice, maybe its a sincerity, that pulls you in and includes you with her devotion, rather than leaving you on the sidelines to marvel at you. You become a part of the chant, and its easy to sing along and be transported out of your every day problems into something better. The world is beginning to catch on to her amazing music, as she recently filled a 3,000 + concert hall in Barcelona. If you can't fly to one of her concerts, give this gift to your friends instead and share the transformational power of her music.
Gurunam Singh's Honoring the Divine Feminine
This amazing album includes two songs...a musical and recitation version of the shabad (prayer) "Bhand Jamee-ai", which uplifts and elevates women. It also clears "mother phobia" from men, which can cause them to attract "mean women" (according to Yogi Bhajan) into their lives. Honor the goddess within all by giving this CD to the men and the women in your lives. It's part of a Spirit Voyage 40 Day Global Sadhana, too, so it's a great opportunity to join thousands of people all over the globe.
Sometimes the people I buy gifts for aren't ready for an album full of Gurmukhi chants. Ashana's music combines prayers from many different traditions, including English prayers like the Prayer of St. Francis, in a lovely album that make a great holiday gift. It's like taking a journey through world religions (she chants Buddhist, Sikh, Catholic, and Native American songs here), and pulling out their sweetest essence -- love. Combine her voice with beautiful crystal singing bowls...and you have something entirely unique and infinitely loveable.
Live from Spirit Fest (Various Artists)
This album was recorded live at the first Sat Nam Fest (called Spirit Fest at the time). It's a fun album to sing along to, as you can hear the voices in the audience singing, too. It's the first live recordings of Mirabai Ceiba, Gurunam Singh, Nirinjan Kaur, Harnam, Sada Sat Kaur and others, and of course live recordings of Snatam Kaur and GuruGanesha Singh are always a treat. Check out Snatam's version of "Dhan Baba Nanak", which is exclusive to this album.
Mirabai Ceiba's Awakened Earth
This album features the hauntingly beautiful voices of Markus and Angelika, two beautiful songs with incredibly powerful music. Their style is tender and expansive, and drips with creativity. Stand out song "Har Har Mukunday" will leave you inspired...and make it hard to give this gift away.
