Similar to extended playing My mind zones out and the only focus is on the music and vibration. The lightness in my chest gives me a feeling of freedom an enlightened feeling. |

I found it very relaxing and it helped me slip into my inner-concise much easier then normal. |

Helps to prevent extraneous thoughts and possibly has a long term beneficial effect but as with any form of meditation it is not "immediate" experience (visions colours thoughts etc) that is important but the long term effect - I think |

In fact I could use the answer above. I mostly start with long low blowing and then I start to raise the tone still played long. The moment I (tried to) reach(ed) from extreme low to extreme high I then try to stop controlling my gestures my thoughts my technique I just let myself being guided. It does not always work that well but it seems a good technique. |

The vibrations have pulled me into huge landscapes of colour in my mind many different sounds come from through there sounds I've never heard like birds been and long gone laughter of people and foot steps of children all together inside the wood rushing out whipped up by the wind then on the journey goes through every limb and organ of the body cleaning out the bad spirits until it rests in the pulse of the heart takes over calming it then the sound is silence... |

Nothing too much to share since I'm not very good at meditating but it sure does take the bite out of a stressful day. |

I have an connection with every instrument that really "touches" me I can Feel vibrating (same as drums or singing bowls) The extra with the didgeridoo is the fact that my breathing takes me into a trance and starts to pump around energy from the earth or cosmos. I strongly feel attached to quantum touch in which breathing also takes a big part. This combines with the didgeridoo-playing is an great experience to me. |

Definitely an instrument in which you could zone out into a trance. |

See "playing didj continuously for long periods of time" as I almost always play to meditate. There are some aspects I need to keep to myself. |
| Lindsey from USA |
Yes |
The sound pretty much just draws me in and I don't realize how long or loud or exactly what I am playing. I play from the heart and not anything that I have heard before or even played before. If it sounds similar it is only similar. I never play the same thing exactly the same twice. |

| Michael from USA |
Yes |
I often find that a continuous tone (drum beats for example) seem to drive me faster and deeper into a meditative state. While I am still learning to play for longer periods of time I have been able to hit peek points after a very short period of time while playing. I often find that I completely loose myself in the sound and forget that I am even playing at all. |

I was attending a drum circle and meditating. Someone else started playing a didj. He rotated in a circle and as the horn came around and pointed directly at me I "felt" the sound throughout my body and a feeling of elation. I suspected that the didj sound related to chanting "Aum/Om". I thanked God for the experience and have been intrigued ever since. I want to learn to play the didj. |

| Steve O'Neill from USA |

Every time I play I go into a zone of meditation--nothing outside matters--only the didg--only the sound. It is as if I am connected to everything--all life --all time. It is a very powerful and humbling experience that is very hard to describe. |

This may sound whacked but I can "see" the frequencies & vibrations of the Didj as rings waves & zigzag patterns in different colours. (Almost the consistency of smoke rings). Each of the colours/patterns also has it's own smell and physical sensation. Can feel the movement up & down my body as the sound envelopes me. |

Only once and it was pretty relaxing. I used to start my didge playing with a short meditation because it would relax me for the playing. |

Playing didgeridoo is the basis for all my inner work. It's what keeps me focused relaxed optimistic and... well alive. I breathe through a hollow stick. |

The combinations of breath frequency tempo and rhythm brings about the most amazing levels of meditation! |

I've practiced Zen for 17 years. I find didge playing hastens the focus of awareness. 5 minutes on the didge is like 30 minutes on my cushion! After playing meditation is much more easy and fluid. |

I don't know much about meditation but I like to think that the tone the vibration gets deep into you and gives some kind of energy to your body and your soul. |

Others played and I meditated. Planning to get into it. Just got a didj today. My other two had to stay in the States. |

I don't really think it is meditation but the different mind set created from playing is very enjoyable. |

Some other guy plays the didj and I played the drums and sang and it made me feel free and creative. For days that is. |

I brought my didj with me to Colorado where I sat on top of a mountain and played the sound bouncing off the canyon was amazing and I felt a deeper connection there. |
