Top 10 Best Songs for Yoga & Meditation

I practice yoga and meditation on a daily basis. Both are great for the body and the mind. Most of us are so wrapped up in our everyday lives that it's good to take time each day to sit still and quietly clear the mind, even if it's only for a few minutes.

That said, there is nothing that gets me in the mood like a good, relaxing playlist.

Below is a list of my top 10 favorite tracks that I listen to while practicing yoga and meditation.

1. Garbage - Milk

This song is magical. Every time I listen to this song, lay in the sun and meditate, magic happens. Try it. You'll see.


2. Coldplay - Don't Panic

Another miraculous work of art. Remember: don't panic. It's a beautiful world.


3. Sarah McLachlan & Delerium - Silence

This is one of my all-time favorites. It just has that dark, eerie vibe to it that makes you want to light candles and just... be.


4. Bush - Mouth

Another great, eerie track. This was from the movie "American Werewolf in Paris." 'Nuff said.


5. Jeff Buckley - New Year's Prayer

God, I love this man. Fall in light, fall in light, fall in light.


6. Grizzly Bear - Ready, Able

Unfortunately, not many people have heard of Grizzly Bear, up until they appeared on one of the Twilight soundtracks. This is undeniably their best song. It is just beautiful. Wait until 1:53 in the song when it really kicks in. And then just listen.


7. Florence and the Machine - Seven Devils

So dark. So evil. So beautiful. Although, I must admit, most of Florence's songs are great for yoga and meditation. "What the Water Gave Me" is a close second.


8. Jennifer Paige - Here in the Sun

I like to think of this track as my little hidden secret. Although Paige is known for her hit "Crush," this song is completely different, but completely chill. So relaxing.


9. Pearl Jam - Just Breathe

Eddie Vedder definitely confused us with this one. Completely contradicting Pearl Jam's usual loud rock style, he mixes it up with this little ditty. Just breathe.


10. Radiohead - Reckoner

By far the best track on "In Rainbows." And a great yoga song.
