From LoveToKnow Yoga
If you want a variety of sources to hear yoga music, you’re in luck! We’ve found numerous options.
Where To Hear Yoga Music Online
There are many Web sites dedicated to providing an eclectic mix of tunes perfect for whatever yoga practice you perform.
Echoes
Whether you want to hear yoga music specifically or find artists that experiment with sounds, you’ll enjoy Echoes. The Beyond Echoes series offers a number of different streams to subscribers perfect for any level of practice. There are also artist interviews and special “Living Room” concerts produced by the site. You can preview a selection here. Subscription prices vary by selection.
iTunes Radio
There are more than 300 streaming stations to choose from on iTunes Radio. The program is compatible with Mac and PC, and is free to download. If you want to watch yoga videos online, movies, TV programs, or listen to podcasts, you’ll have to subscribe to the service. But, the radio streams are free. On the “Eclectic” channel, you’ll find everything from exercise-specific music to Indian pow-wow chants.
Live365 Internet Radio
One quick search for yoga music or new age music on Live365 brings up pages of station options. But, you do have to sort through them to make sure it’s the type of music you’re looking for. Some feature yoga commentary, self-help discussions, and spiritual sessions as well. One popular yoga music channel is Asana – Music for Yoga. Live365 does feature commercials, but offers VIP memberships starting at $5.95 per month for music-only streams and upgraded software options.
Meditation Music
If you want to hear yoga music as well as create an atmosphere for meditation, try Meditation Music. The site offers downloads for purchase through Amazon.mp3, but you can sample them first to see what you like best. The streaming meditation music is hosted by Live365, which inserts commercials in between selections. However, you can sign up for a free trial to see if you’d prefer to pay a monthly membership fee to listen without interruption.
Omstream
For the largest selection of yoga music online, bookmark Omstream. This site is wholly dedicated to yoga, and selections are categorized so you can choose the sounds that best suit your practice. There are artist spotlights, interviews and features of the week. In addition to music, select special yoga instruction is also available. You pay per download or by CD purchase. If you become a member, you’ll receive extra discounts.
Radio IO
Radio IO is a multi-format Internet radio station. Yoga music doesn't need to be all windchimes and birdsong. If you’re doing a fast Vinyasa Yoga sequence, you may want to amp up the atmosphere a bit. From ambient and chill music to jazz and pop, Radio IO offers a slew of options. The station streams with commercials both from its site and iTunes Radio. Or, become a member with the site’s “Soundpass” for $4.99 a month or $50 a year and listen commercial-free.
Free Yoga Music
It’s expensive to stream audio, so that’s why you don’t find many resources that let you hear yoga music for free. However, there are a few sites with limited selections sharing tunes for you to enjoy.
My Inner Self
At My Inner Self, you’ll find an assortment of tunes and meditations by intuitive artist Michele Bernhardt. The site also has pleasant visuals that may aid in momentary meditation.
Rhapsody
This pay-per-download site has a special feature called Yoga Music Unlimited. This small selection of free, full-length streams lets you hear yoga music you’d eventually like to purchase.
Sound Sleeping
Sound Sleeping offers an interesting mix of drums, flute, and background sounds you merge together for a personal yoga soundtrack. The site is easy to navigate and provides suggestions for sound combinations.
Visit Artists’ Web Sites
Another great source of yoga music is artists’ Web sites. Many extend visitors a quick preview of upcoming releases and special selections. For example, Krishna Das offers at press time a preview of his CD, “Flow of Grace”. Shiva Rea has compiled numerous yoga music CDs, and previews most of them through her Web site or Sounds True.
You can also create a yoga music station through Pandora. Create a playlist, share songs, and listen any time.
