In Tune, by Dr. Richard Wolf, is a fun introduction into the intersection of meditation music. Dr. Wolf introduces “The Twelve Bridges” - skills and sensibilities refined in musical practice that carry over to mindfulness and meditation. These include, 1. Dedication, 2. Posture, 3. Concentration, 4. Harmony, 5. Practice for the Sake of Practice, 6. The Art of Deep Listening, 7. Patience and Perseverance, 8. Mindfulness and Creativity, 9. Trance, Music, and Meditation, 10. Sympathetic Vibrations, 11. Transcending the Self, and last, but certainly not least, 12. Silence. It’s an inspirational guide that offers music-based exercises to enhance daily meditation and creativity. Dr. Wolf also shares personal anecdotes of eminent musicians to illuminate points along the intersection of music and mindful living.
