All the best of luck, I find it really relaxing to spend time with myself listening to this type of music as it helps with my mental health. I usually do tai chi, yoga, water painting, meditation - breathing techniques with my eyes closed or just as some examples. There's a bunch of things you can do online called 'artist's dates' if you ever find yourself lonely. Remember despite how alone you feel, we are never truly alone in our own company (bonus points for the cat).
I’m having a really hard time .. consuming toxicity all around me daily .. feeling trapped and hopeless while my creativity and imagination plummeted creating an even more suffocating environment without a mind willing to transcend the physical. My situation gives me bouts of tears, depression and fear. This is one of the little things that is helping in saving me from myself and everything around me. I listened to it when I first woke up whilst brushing my teeth and it feels like there’s a secret world out there and that the despair in my head is only temporary
Hope you are feeling much better now. I've been there a while too... things do get better. But it's out own inner strength that keeps us shining bright.
In case anyone didn't tell you yet today...I love you! You are very important and so is your happiness! Make each day count because you are capable of creating your own reality. Trust the universe and everything will work out! Best wishes ❤
@travishibachi @gogee27 @pitagrozsaraiva Sounds like Christianity and Judaism... just replace the word "God" with the word "Universe" and worship the creation rather than the Creator. Now you may have all the artificial comforts of living a "Spiritual Life" minus the uncomfortable, but necessary truths and conviction and the Grace of the only living God of the Universe. This would actually give you the sense of substance and comfort that you are hurting for this whole time.... but what do I know. No one does and that is the point! Only God knows, not the universe for the universe is only a creation the same way you are... Word to the wise, Repent and Trust God instead! Romans 1:18-32

Suffering life with great ambient is fine enough to let me step further. Thank you so much for your upload which is saving me from another tear-bursting and depressing night.
Here’s to hoping you are still with us and reach out for help. I consider you a distant kindred spirit via this music and hope you find “your people” soon.
I'm so grateful & blessed for this music. Honestly, whenever I listen to these ambient sounds, they send me into a serene space where everything dissipates. Ever since stumbling upon Hiroshi Yoshimura, I've been hooked on this music. Thank you very much for sharing these timeless gems.
Hiroshi Yoshimura is sooooo good. Might I recommend Haruomi Hosono? Specifically his cassette, Watering a Flower. I think you'll totally enjoy it. music.th-cam.com/video/Y34R1HpogFI/w-d-xo.html&feature=share
Listened to this last night when I began peeking on LSD and sobbed like a child. Haven’t cried in so long. I released so much pain within me during that experience. I am infinitely grateful for the composer and uploader of this beautiful, healing music. 💗
Sounds like the type of experience that really convinces you to continue living. Im grateful beyond words you had that experience my friend, even if i am but a mere stranger on the internet. We all ought to love each other more.
Acho a pior coisa, usar meios artificiais como drogas para se sentir bem, o risco de dependência é enorme, entrei nesta vibe e saí.. mas quantos terão esta capacidade? Quando estiverem velhos e na vala? Tenho 63 anos e penso, o tempo é o senhor das horas.. é só pensar!
I've been teased for the entirety of my life and can't seem to catch a break. This music helps all of that wash away and brings me peace when I am sad and heartbroken.
your resilience is to let it go. do not waste any further thought on it. if it still happens be fearless. without fear. become unmoved. a stone that lets water pass by it. remain the stone. you will find peace there. 🙏
It is meaningful to me that I am discovering Kokubo as the dreadful winter is giving way to the early stages of spring, this music provides a serendipitous soundtrack to the end of a season I wasn’t sure I’d make it through. Here we are, and nature’s cycles are contrasted to provide rich beauty when it’s needed most.
Sending you vibrations of love Leon, I too haven't felt happy for a while pray this changes soon and that I feel more fulfilled within... I pray you do also.. sending hugs 💝
There is something very special about the ambient music coming out of Japan. I lived in Tokyo for a year, just before this music came out. Was listening to a few ambient artists from the Tokyo area. All of them had this kind of serenity. Wonderful to have such grace fill my home. Thank you for uploading.
some of this Japanese scenery music is my favorite to trip too i highly recommend Hiroshi Yoshimura "GREEN" (1986) some of the same feel as here but with more of a binaural beat every now and again very nice background for your trip stay strange brother much love
Listening to this makes me think of a bit humid, warm jungle forest with rainbows and big open corridors, and that we must all do what we can to protect nature and the environment. As soon as the quarantine ends, we will be able to enjoy nature in it's purest form and we must honour such beauty by showing love to its birth-giver.
I listen to this music and look at pictures and videos of the things I love the most. Its the most beautiful experience ever. :) Much love to humanity.
That feeling.... When I woke up devastated..... Then, its raining outside..... But, I am feeling very grateful because I can spend whole day under blanket.... That feeling When You are completely alone, But feeling exceptional connection Within Yourself. That feeling When You are putting Your fingers in Plant soil first time after Many years.... Little bumps of soil under Your nails..... That feeling of Autumn wet humidity When You passing by some Chinese restaurant in some lonely NYC street and locals smoking outside... That feeling ....When there is first summer shower and humidity is out of control after..... That feeling ... When You are touching some green Cold jelly with warm fingers......
That feeling when you are heterosexual - but like being gay. And its accepted - yet confusing for many. So you have to come out of the closet as heterosexual again - but then kinda give up on labels entirely.
I can only imagine what it was like in a time where you still pretty much had to buy music to hear it if it wasn't main stream, so you give this Japanese title a try on your commute from a stressful work day and just have whole experience that may be your first exposure to ambient nature music. Gotta feel like finding treasure on a beach.
This is perfect. I feel the essence of a Hidden Mystical Forest. I lit a nice pine incense to add to it. There's something about this that makes me feel peaceful and light.
Agreed! The theme is met perfectly - the flutes are arranged very well. Maybe you want to check out my work too - without being spamy or anything - but if it helps you, I'd be glad to do so.
Thanks for this beautiful music. I tried listening to it with my eyes closed and surprisingly this was what I visualized. I saw myself flew above a forest and enjoyed the pleasant view until I saw long black hair loosely dangled down from the left side and the right side of my vision. Then I saw a pale face before me. I thought that was really creepy!
A great way to start the year..... I wish the whole year would be like this.........Tranquil..... Knock the extremes together.....the dazzling heights and the darkest terrible lows and a forest bursts out with trees passing you by in a strange unknown movement, a rhythm that saves everything.......that gives a calm direction to this crooked senseless existence with countless living creatures chirping, singing the leaf_light painting your skin dark_green.............The forest forever !!!!
