Meditation is a process of relaxing the mind by focusing on only one thought. Focusing involves repeating a word or several words or listening to a particular kind of music or sound to divert the mind from any distractions to reach a state of relative calmness.
Meditation sounds easy. After all how difficult can it be to sit in a stationary position and contemplate on a single thought or word or sound and not think of anything at all, right? Well not quite...as most of us realize when we first sit down to meditate. You can look as calm and peaceful as someone meditating from the outside but your mind is a mess with thoughts zipping around at the speed of light!
A lot of people who are new to mediation meditation find it hard to stay focused. Some are not used to staying "thoughtless" even for just a few minutes. That is where guided meditations come in. Some of the tools used in guided meditation are music and meditation scripts to help motivate people to concentrate.
Typically any form of soothing music is used while meditating. It does not necessarily have to be an Indian chant or a Mozart piece. It can be just any music that you feel will clear your mind off any thought and helps you relax. Some professional guides who conduct private sessions use meditation music with cues. These cues are like instructions that are read out to those meditating so that they know what they need to do so as to attain a state of deep relaxation easily and faster.
There are many websites which provide free meditation rooms which include calming images too look at for exercises. These sites also have several tracks of meditation music. Highly recommended meditation music CD's can also be found with reviews from people who have used them in their meditation.
