Album Notes

Ambient music tends to not call attention to itself. Rather it flows around and fits into the background like other ambient events - the wind, surf, windchimes, or bird songs are excellent examples. There is no toe tapping (rhythm entrainment) and no mental tension (anticipation response) to command the attention.

EarthSpirit is ambient music. Designed as a soothing background for relaxation, long thoughts and meditation, massage therapy, and many other settings, EarthSpirit intuitively and effortlessly evokes the relaxation response.

So light that candle, sit back, relax. and enjoy.

John Standridge was born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He began playing piano at age 6, and trumpet at age 11. Early musical influences included the jazz of Stan Kenton, the opera of Puccini, and the folk music of Leonard Cohen. He now embraces all musical genres. Areas of personal interest are equally diverse, and, in addition to music composition and recording, include painting (watercolors, oils, and acrylics), gourmet cooking, enology, reading, chess, computers, horses, boating, and fishing. Like many musicians, John Standridge has a day job; he teaches and practices family medicine. As a professor of family medicine at the University of Tennessee College of Medicine, Dr. Standridge believes in the healing powers of music, so when he relaxes, he seriously relaxes.

Healing music for the mind, body, and spirit
author: Heather Landry
                            
I enjoy meditating to John's music. When I receive my Reiki treatments, I listen to the music through my headphones and go into a deep, altered state of consciousness so that the music and energy are better able to do their healing work. The music is soothing and easy to listen to. There are no rhythms or beats that bring you back to Beta consciousness. It simply flows like a mountain creek. You can set the tracks on repeat and meditate for the entire day if you wish. This is great music to listen to while performing any number of activities such as Reiki, energy work, healing work, prayer, massage therapy, reflexology, ritual work, creating art, and reaching altered states. Track 2, The Beach, is good for creating a peaceful visualization of being at the beach on a beautiful day, the waves crashing while you drift off into another world. It reminds me slightly of "Signs of Life" by Pink Floyd, which is a song that I love. One of my favorites is definitely Track 3, "Snowfall". I love the chimes. It feels like they are tickling my mind and body. Songs like this make meditation a delight that I look forward to. I am also eager to hear John's other CD, ConceptPeace, which I just noticed. Good work, John!

I know this CD. I am a massage therapist and this is my favorite!

I am a massage therapist. I first discovered the EarthSpirit CD when I was in school. I would go from room to room to find it. This is the CD I learned to give massages by and it is still the BEST I have ever heard for working with. It is so intuative that I do my best work. Clients love it. They relax like never before and ask where they can get it. I never knew what to tell them until now. I can't believe I found it.
