MHFP 093: Music, Mindfulness, & Miracles with Murray Hidary

by | Jan 7, 2021 | Podcast

In the midst of the chaos that our country is experiencing right now, allow me to wish each and everyone peace and compassion.

And if you need any support in offering compassion to yourself or others, and some peaceful thoughts and emotions, and really changing your whole outlook on the events from the recent events or any other very difficult experience, obviously in the fertility world, that’s pretty much every day. I do have a compassion series on YouTube. Just click here and don’t forget to subscribe.

On to today’s podcast episode. I sat with the amazing Murray Hidary of MindTravel.com to talk about his work. I think that his work is absolutely necessary. It is both healing and helpful, especially in today’s world. And I think that you’re really gonna enjoy hearing what he has to say in terms of melding mindfulness and music and creating miracles from experiences.

Murray Hidary is a multi-disciplinary artist and tech pioneer. His purpose-driven approach is at the heart of his business success, acclaim as a visual artist and global recognition as a musician. Ever pushing boundaries and guided by a strong desire to help people find their purpose, Murray is now focused on touring his immersive musical experience MindTravel across the globe. Over the past five years, Murray has created over 500 MindTravel experiences for over 100,000 people in cities from Los Angeles to London, Paris to Pittsburgh, Berlin to Boulder; in venues such as Lincoln Center, The Theater at the Ace Hotel, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Grace Cathedral, and The National Arts Club.

Murray created the first MindTravel experience in 2013. He invited a group to his living room for a live performance of his provocative, improvisational, real-time compositions at the piano and then asked them what they thought of the experience. Moved by their emotional response and the power of music to take the group on a deep inner journey, he moved forward to bring it to the world.

Growing up playing music since he was five years old, Murray knew he wanted to be a composer by the time he was in high school. He also began a deep inner journey of discovery as a teenager that led him to study eastern philosophy, Zen Buddhism and other wisdom traditions. His composing became deeply influenced by these teachings and he began to fuse the two into a personal reflective practice at the piano. This practice inspired him to discover great insights and provided healing through profound personal loss, grief and life’s tribulations. It became a voice he used to connect to his higher sense of purpose. A musical language and journey continued to emerge and evolve. He called it MindTravel.

MindTravel brings together Murray’s passions for contemporary classical music, visual art, theoretical physics and wisdom traditions. They are the four pillars of an integrated experience that seeks to explore an understanding of the universe at both the visible and hidden levels.

In addition to the above, Murray is a Certified Meditation Teacher through the Vedic Center and a Certified Grief Counselor through Our House Grief Support Center.
