When it comes to meditation music, there’s no right or wrong choice. Classical music, chants, and instrument-only songs are often the first things that pop into people’s minds when they think of meditation music.

Having said that, the best music for meditation is whatever makes you feel conscious and mindful of the environment surrounding you. Yes, that means, pop, rock, and rap tunes are also welcomed. Obviously, you want to stay away from any aggressive, or overly-emotional playlists as they’ll defeat the meditation purpose.

But, in general, if you stay with calming tunes, you’ll have the perfect companion to listen to during your meditation sessions. In the meantime, let’s break down the best meditation music to hear during your sessions.

For Controlling Anxiety

Try a binaural beats playlist. Binaural beats are when what we’re listening to in our left ear beats at a different frequency to what we hear in our right ear. This type of music has been linked to relaxation and controlling anxiety.

For Improving Sleep

Similar to the previous playlist, delta waves are meant to not only help you boost your meditation sessions but also to encourage deep sleep. Start this soothing playlist as you get ready for bed to help you catch the GR8TEST rest of your life.

For Guided Meditation

Whenever you’re practicing chanting meditation, and want a music playlist that also gives you guidance to continue through your practice.

For Short In-Office Meditation

If you’ve finally joined the office meditation group, you’re going to love this playlist. These are short tracks that can give you the perfect setting for short meditation practice. The idea of this session is to encourage slower breathing and decreased heart rate to keep you grounded throughout the day.

For Classic Meditation Sessions

If your go-to music for meditation is contemporary classical music, we don’t blame you – it’s simply GR8. Try this classic meditation session playlist to give you the chill vibes you’re looking for.
