You choose the music
about us
Intune is a practice that blends mindfulness with your favorite songs.The songs we love hold the memories and emotions that have shaped our lives. By meditating with this music, we become more intune with our mental and emotional health, empowering us to lead more purposeful and fulfilling lives.
A study by Goldberg (2015) demonstrated that just a single 15-minute session of “Intune” is more relaxing and enjoyable than simply listening to music. Intune also proved to be as effective as traditional mindfulness exercises in reducing rumination and stress, regardless of musical style or genre. This means that if you prefer heavy metal music, you can meditate with it and still reduce your stress!
