Part of the Sound Healing series from Soundings of the Planet, Tao of Healing teams flautist Dean Evenson with Li Xiangting, a professor from the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing and an authority on the guqin, an ancient seven-string zither from China. Their collaboration, with barely perceptible support from keyboards, acoustic guitar (Scott Huckabay) and percussion, is a hushed, serene, and inviting experience--as soft as the faintest breeze felt on a peaceful, sun-warmed afternoon. Evenson's meditative flute, which rarely strays from the instrument's comfortable low and middle ranges, is the disc's prevailing voice, with Xiangting's guqin discreetly supplying tasteful, angular accents to complement the Western vibe of Evenson's reflective improvisations. At times, in fact, this calming, slow-go disc (60 minutes in length) briefly conveys traces of jazzlike harmonics (largely Huckabay's contribution) that flavors the blissful proceedings with a nice touch of musicality. A slight soundalike quality might be detected in some tracks, but this is a minor quibble. This is Evenson's first recording where natural sounds are not included, though the liner notes assert the mix makes use of "earth resonance frequency" (7.8 hertz), all to enhance a listener's attainment of an alpha state. Actually, Evenson, Xiangting, and company do a commendable job of that on their own. A strong choice for supplementing massage or meditation. --Terry Wood

 Great~ November 23, 2008
This product was exactly as offered. The music is soothing and relazing. Would recommend it for anyone seeking this type of music!!
 Tao of Healing September 6, 2008
I have cases full of laid-back meditation music, but none exactly like this. The flute paired with the zither really creates an exotic relaxing Asian atmosphere. This album is transporting, and will take you to a serene place where you can completely relax. It is very classy and tasteful. I like this style so much that I also ordered Tao of Peace. Either way, you can be confident that either title will deliver for you. Both are very good representations of this type of music.
Use this in place of sleeping pills. June 5, 2008
My acupuncturist put this on while I was receiving a treatment. I got so relaxed I fell asleep. I went home and ordered it immediately and now I listen to it every night when I go to bed. I am getting the best sleep I have had in years.
Soothing and calming January 12, 2008
This cd is very soothing and I find it very calming, leaving me with a feeling of zen that lasts and lasts. I use it during my massage, meditation, reiki and as peaceful background music as I work, or when I am at rest. This cd and Dean's other cd Tao of Peace, has got me hooked on his work!
Good for pets as well as people March 3, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I purchased this cd for myself, but noticed my Basenji seemed to relax a little whenever I put the music on. I often play it for her in repeat mode when I am going to be out. She is definitely "zen'd out" by the time I return!
I can best describe the music by saying that there are no loud instruments or uptempo arrangements to distract from the relaxation experience. The melody is soothing and uncomplicated, so it works well in many settings where a quiet mood is preferable (like doggie bath day). So do something nice for your pet...and yourself...and check out this cd. Alternately, I would recommend Dean Evenson's equally pleasant "Forest Rain" cd.
