With BREATHE, composer Jorge Alfano and sound healing pioneer Dr. Jeffrey Thompson team up for an exploration of music as therapy, where lush atmospherics drive the mind into states of clarity and relaxed joy. Alfano's compositions are soft, slightly rhythmic and full of Asian elements, like Balinese gamelan bells on "Healing Waters of Thailand" and the zither-like Chinese gu-zheng on "Fire Dance." The tracks also have a contemporary flair, with a languid ambience that invites you to relax and unwind. Dr. Thompson adds to the potency of the recording by infusing the music with alpha brainwave pulses, designed to synchronize your brainwaves frequencies to match alpha wave patterns. Alpha waves give one the relaxed body, alert mind quality that makes meditation and concentration easier to accomplish.
