This study is based on literature review and theoretical background, we will explore the interrelationship between music and meditation and meditation image production through music, discuss the relationship between theremin instruments and musical meditation. It also describes whether the musical direction through an emotional approach meets the purpose of music meditation, focusing on the creative process and analysis of the work. In this study, the emotional aspect of music was developed, centering on the auditory characteristics of music and the inner element of meditation, to find the relationship between each other, and to prepare a specific plan for music directing to induce the inner emotion of meditation. This study deduced a way to apply music meditation with an emotional approach centering on the melody through the use of the Theremin instrument, and tried to approach the inner meaning and methodology of the work academically. It is hoped that these studies will contribute to the development of music meditation programs and the expansion of music meditation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of meditation music with lumbar stabilization exercise on balance, concentration and muscle activation. Participants are divided into Group A and Group B. Group A listened to meditation music while doing 4 sets of lumbar stabilization exercise. Group B did not listen to meditation music while doing 4 sets of lumbar stabilization exercise. Surface EMG data was obtained rectus abdominis, external oblique, erector spinae, multifidus muscle during lumbar stabilization exercise. To examine the effect of before-after experiment for concentration and balance, paired t-test was adopted. Changes in EMG data of each muscles were analyzed by independence t-test. There were statistically significant increasing at concentration level and balance level in Group A. But significant difference was not shown in muscle activation. The clinical effect of the meditation music with lumbar stabilization exercise was investigated in this study with more excellent results in concentration and balance. In conclusion, these results suggest that meditation music and lumbar stabilization exercise may be useful in elderly people.

Recently, the meditation is getting a major concern because of the trend of wellbeing. The various meditation methods are introduced, but, we need to take an appropriate method for himself or herself. Especially, the numbers of meditators who are using meditation music while they are meditating are increasing. Some people say it is helpful, but others don't. Therefore, I have studied the impact of the meditation music in this paper. I have compared between the meditation with the music and without the music by measuring the channels of left and right hemisphere of prefrontal lobe with 14-channel EEG device. For the result, I have found that there are great difference between two experiments.

This study examined the effects of a meditation program using picture books as a method of reducing young children's aggression. Data was taken from a sample of 60 four-to five-year-old children in daycare centers. This study employed a pre/post-test controlgroup design. All children of each daycare center were assigned to an experimental group(meditation program using picture books) or control group(general music meditation program). All variables were measured by the mothers and teachers of the observed children and the collected data were analyzed by independent and paired t-test. The main results of this study are as follows. Firstly, the meditation program using picture books and general music meditation program were all effective in reducing young children's aggression (aggression against things, aggression against others, verbal aggressin and total aggression) perceived by their teachers, that is, aggression against things, aggression against others and verbal aggression. Secondly, the meditation program using picture books was more effective than general music meditation program in reducing young children's aggression perceived by teachers. Thirdly, the meditation program using picture books was effective in reducing only young children's verbal aggression perceived by their mothers.

본 연구에서는 생활공간에서의 음 환경이 인체에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 긍정감성을 유발하는 음환경으로서의 '명상음악'과 부정감성을 유발하는 음환경으로서의 '마루가 삐그덕거리는 소음'을'제시하였을 때 전두엽의 부위별 활성화의 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 뇌전도를 측정하였다. 연구결과, 명상음악을 청취시에는 안정상태에 비하여 좌측전두엽이 더 활성화되는 반면에 소음환경에서는 우측전두엽이 더 활성화됨을 관측할 수 있었다.

The present study describes the effects of music and vibroacoustic stimuli to the relaxation of human body. We have carried out the experiment on 6 human subjects of which are composed 3 men and 3 women. We have investigated the electroencephalogram(EEG) of all subjects before and after the stimuli of which are made a strong noise or the meditatiom music and the acoustic vibration. The vibroacoustic device has transmitted meditation music as vibration between 20Hz and 250Hz to the body. From the experimental results, we made sure the effects that the meditation music and vibroacoustic stimuli influenced the stress reduction of human body for good as alpha wave was increased continuously during the good stimuli and after that.

This study is aimed to inspect how the different sensitivities in Behavioral activation system (BAS) and Behavioral inhibition system (BIS) modulate on the properties of physiological responses stimulated by positive or negative affective sound. We measured the electroencephalogram (EEG) of 32 students, consisted of four groups depending on the BAS and BIS sensitivities, during listening to meditation music or noise. The EEG was recorded at Fp1 and Fp2 sites. After listening to music or noise, subjects reported the affect induced by the sound. For EEG, the power in the alpha band at Fp2, especially in the alpha-2 band (9.0-11.0 Hz) increased during the subjects listening to music, while the power at Fp1 increased during noise. During listening to meditation music, there is a tendency that the left-sided activation in prefrontal cortex (PFC) is positively correlated with the difference of BAS(Z)-BIS(Z). During listening to noise, there is a tendency that the right-sided activation in PFC is dominant in case any of the sensitivity of BAS or BIS is high. From these results we suggest that the physiological responses of different individuals in BAS and BIS react differently under the same emotionally provocative challenge.

Yoga meditation and music therapy are considered to be appropriate for the spiritual and mental treatment for the patients and employed in many clinics and rehabilitation centers as an alternative medicine. This study aims at the analysis of the effects of yoga and music on the treatment of alcoholism. For this, yoga and music treatments were executed for the patients hospitalized in an alcohol clinic hospital in Gimhae district. Only the patients who were judged as alcohol dependents by a psychiatrist with a diagnostic criteria of DSM-IV participated in the study. During five weeks, from November 10, 2009 to December 29, yoga program was practiced two times per week, totaling 10 times, and music therapy was practiced one time per week, totaling 5 times. Among the patients participated in the programs, 44patients were selected finally. They are 16 patients who performed all the yoga programs, and 28 patients who fulfilled all the music therapies. A survey was conducted on them to estimate the effects of yoga and music treatments for the three cases of 'angry behavior', 'anger expression', and 'psychological state at interview'. The results show that yoga and music treatments have positive effects on the patients, although the statistical significance is not so great. However, the more reliable and significant results could be obtained in further studies by prolongation of the practice period, and by introducing the clinical information such as brain mapping to compensate the emotional bias of the patients.
