From the FIRST note!

"No kidding - from the very first note of the very first track, the stunningly beautiful music on this CD aims straight for your heart and hits its mark dead on! Each track flows seamlessly into the next with no interruption of silence between them, making this an ideal meditation CD. Awesome for healing work, energy work, reflection, or release work. Eyes of Your Heart is gentle and flowing throughout, like riding a wave of bliss :)
There is no doubt this music comes to Mr. Delarue through the Angels, Light Workers, Beings of Light, or whatever name you wish to ascribe them.
The first track, Prelude to a New Life is haunting and melodic as it begins, and soon moves to an energy of slow yet joyous delight before gently winding back down to flow in to the next track, Eyes of Your Heart. Beautiful!
The energy of the second track, (also the title track), Eyes of Your Heart, is distinctly healing for anyone who has been unable to, or struggles with, seeing themselves as God sees them. This is the primary message of the CD and the companion book Create A New Life Through the Eyes of Your Heart - to see yourself as God sees you in order to see others as God sees them, and by extension, to see the world as God created it - a place of beauty and filled with creatures deserving of our loving care. The addition of what sounds like an angelic choir singing in perfect union raises your vibes so high that they're off the chart! The effect is a sensation of soaring through a very safe and warm space. I also hear in this track what sounds like very faint dolphin song intermixing with the angelic choir, and instantly that safe warm space through which I am soaring becomes a beautiful underwater sanctuary where play and bliss are not just encouraged, but required. A short time is spent there before returning to the realm of blissful harmony out there in some peaceful unnamed ethereal space. Beautiful!
The third track, An Inspiring New Day is aptly named. As the angelic choir continues to lend their voices, haunting and uplifting in nature, the energy of this track shifts from the deeply moving energy of its predecessor to a very light and hopeful energy, providing the sensation of being uplifted and inspired to create shifts in our perspectives and attitudes.
The fourth track, The Light Deep Within You brings you back down to the depths of your soul where it allows you to encounter the beauty of your true essence - a divinely created being worthy of love and acceptance - just as you are. The words 'transformational' and 'healing' are an understatement here. This track provides the sensation of being in the presence of the God of your understanding. Just as you feel ready to surrender to the sheer beauty of that Being, your understanding shifts and you realize you're looking at yourself in all of your created glory. If that doesn't change your perspective of yourself and help you to recognize the beautiful soul you are, I'm not sure anything will. Truly amazing! The music shifts ever so subtly at this point and takes you on a journey of realization of all that is possible. Perhaps this is done in preparation for the next track, or perhaps it is by Divine design, but through listening and experiencing, you suddenly become aware of all that is before you. Doors you hadn't even seen not only become visible, but you realize you can open them. Options galore flow in to your mind and heart as you realize that as a Divinely Created Being, you are capable of creating and co-creating things you hadn't ever thought possible for yourself. The final notes go so deeply to your soul, you really have no choice but to take the opportunity to release whatever it is that's been holding you back and embrace the truth of yourself. Awesome!
The fifth track, Creating Your Own Path is fun! What comes to me as I listen to this track is a sense of exploration and wonderment. In my meditation, I see myself exploring differing paths and observing my options. Kind of like being a kid in a candy store, or a child at a fair for the first time - with eyes wide over all there is to see and do. It's all there spread out in front of us...we have only to create that which we wish to experience. The energy of this track moves from cautious but intentional & serious exploration to a lighthearted skipping and dancing through all there is, and then back again before moving into what feels like a musical time line of one's life from childhood onward to maturity...sort of a looking back to see where you've been in order to discern where you are and why you are where you are, and then finally looking forward to where you intend to go with renewed optimism, courage and faith in yourself. Love it!
The sixth track, Eyes of Your Heart Piano Version version of the title track. Lovely and pure, it speaks for itself.
The final track, Legacy of Peace couldn't have a better name, for it really does leave you, and allow you to end your meditation with, a sense of peace and fulfillment. As your eyes slowly drift open while bringing yourself back from a deep and profound meditative experience, you feel and know your heart, your mind, your being has been cleansed, renewed and recharged. The energy of this track is one of well being. Boy, life sure is different when your energies have been been cleansed and cleared to such a wondrous depth. Really leaves you with no excuse for not getting out there and creating the life you desire and deserve by being the change you want to see!
The bottom line is that this is one of the best CDs I've ever experienced. The most appropriate words I can think of to describe it are: heavenly, divine, inspired, miracle-making, and transformative. It is worth far more than its monetary value or of the time you'll spend listening to it. I challenge you to spend one hour with this CD and walk away unchanged. I bet you can't do it :)

""Create A New Life Through The Eyes Of Your Heart" is Frederic Delarue's seventh solo release and is the companion CD to his new book by the same name. Having survived three near-death experiences over the past twenty-eight years, Delarue is able to communicate with the angels and "beings of light" that surround us. Through them, he is able to spontaneously create "The Music Of Your Soul" for individuals, groups, and companies, as well as for his own first book. Earlier this year, I attended one of Delarue's concerts in a church where he created Music for the Soul of the Group, an unforgettable experience. In that setting as well as on this CD, the music and instrumentation seem simpler, less layered, and even more meditative than Delarue's previous releases. He told me that this music is intended for listening while reading the book, to allow the reader to go deeper. In that sense, it is soothing, uplifting, gentle background music for any number of quiet activities. I didn't have much luck waking up to it, as I kept drifting off into pleasant dreams, but that is actually a compliment!
There are seven individual tracks listed on the CD, but the pieces all flow from one to another without much of a separation, making this CD more of a one-hour meditation. The instrumentation is (electronic) piano-based with ethereal voices, strings, guitar, flute, and other ambient sounds creating the feeling of floating peacefully on a gentle wave of music. This type of music often becomes ear-candy with no real substance, but not when it's Frederic Delarue doing the creating. The music has a profound reassurance and overwhelming sense of peaceful well-being - health food for the soul! Highly recommended!"
Music for your Soul

"OMG! This CD is absolutely beautiful, immediately beautiful--the soft and gentle piano, with gentle vibes, and synthesized sounds. I HAVE to write this review for my metaphysical friends, because they HAVE to know about this music. (If you are not into that sort of thing, I have written something for you later in the review.) CD total time is 55:01.
I felt the energy in my heart right away. I did not expect it to be this great. Oh-h-h-h-it just blew me away. I am not kidding you. I FEEL this music big time. Wow! It is awesome! I can just close my eyes and ride the music notes right into Heaven! To describe the feelings: peace, beauty, love, foregiveness, kindness, and more love love love--like floating on a raft in a gentle pond, like being surrounded by a gentle fog at early dawn in an open field, while a cool crisp breeze kisses your cheek, like the beautiful sunset in Maui, like being held in the arms of the angels, like swimming with the dolphins in the ocean when no one else is around, like soaring through the Milky Way. This music just keeps chanting a feeling of Love love love. It is flowing and peaceful and all things beautiful.
There is truly a special energy in this music, if you open yourself up to feeling it. I wrote this review as I listened to the album for the first time and I could feel the energy rising, surrounding the back of my neck and tingling throughout my face. At several times, I felt the heat rising within me. I was actually perspiring, as I do when I get around a shop full of special stones. It's from a tremendous amount of energy that I begin to absorb. In my case, the energy moved from the 4th Chakra (heart) and extended upward into the 5th, 6th and 7 and swirled around. I began to feel what I call an energy chill (a warm flow of energy) across my back shoulders and throughout my face. It was so very wonderful and also kept vibrating throughout my face.
At another point, the music briefly had a massive God-like feel to, as if I were sitting on a cloud, watching a world being created. This music is an experience, a journey. Frederic is truly gifted. If you can feel energy, you know what I'm talking about.
The music returned to peace again and I received another energy chill. Find a place where you can be alone and experience it. Just go into the music and become one with the music and float right up to heaven. The music returned to the flow between the 4th and 7th chakras. The songs flow gently into each other, so, you just continue to float. If you remember the movie about an angel (Nicolas Cage) who falls in love with an earth being (Meg Ryan)and at the end, when Nicolas Cage is on the shore with the angels, this would be music you might expect to hear as you join the angels on the beach to watch the sun rise. Track 5 has some interesting sounds in it too, from a vibrational sense.
This is music where you can take a shower and stretch out on the couch with a big fluffy pillow and tone yourself down for an hour of music, just totally chill out. You may not be able to move and probably won't want to. The music returned to my crown charka, as if it was boring a hole and going inside. I don't remember ever experiencing music quite like this before. It's a feeling of "home" or oneness, or something really special. I received another energy chill, from the shoulders up through the crown charka and into the hole in the top of my head. I held off posting a couple of reviews because review #333 had to be something really special, metaphysically and spiritually, and this is it! This CD is truly deserving of being #333 (the number of the ascended masters). It must be right out of heaven, both in its beauty and in its vibrational content.
You could also meditate with this music and use it to do alternative healing modalities. I would not hesitate to play it for someone who is in the process of passing on. I think it would help them to pass peacefully. This music is like a beautiful prayer. No words--just beautiful music--hypnotic. If you play it on the computer, even the visualizations are an added dimension to this acoustical retreat. Track #7 kind of felt a little more bouncy, like it was beginning to bring you out of a hypnotic state, but still very profound and very energizing in the metaphysical sense.
Wow! I don't know that my review even begins to do this CD the justice it deserves. I have a background in music and a great love for it anyway, but this is just incredible! The album back cover states that "Eyes of the Heart" is Frederick's 7th solo instrumental CD and is considered "The Music of the Soul" of his inspirational book by the same name. This is an August 2009 release! Wow! It just finished playing and I wish I could describe the beauty I feel right now. My whole body is still tingling from the vibrations. If I close my eyes, I am still floating in peace, out in the universe, above the earth. Holy schmidlap, Batman! What a wonderful time to be alive! (No, I am not on anything!) I have some very special spiritual friends I give gifts to during the holidays. I know what they are getting! (S-h-h-h-h. Don't tell them. You will ruin my surprise.) I continued to feel those vibrations into my sleep and they were still there in the morning. I took the CD to work and played in low to create a peaceful environment at work. (All you need is the vibration.) I have also played it in the car.
As I promised, for those of you who A) think I am nuts, or B) do not understand this metaphysical/charka/energy business: this is, at a minimum, possibly some of the most beautiful and peaceful music you will ever hear. It will certainly help you unwind at the end of the day and could likely help you drift off to a very peaceful night's sleep.
There is also a book that Frederic has written, telling of his near death experience (NDE) at age 12, and other experiences. I just began reading the book, but I really think that he brought this music back from Heaven with him when he returned from the NDE.
God bless this wonderful composer for his contribution to universal peace and consciousness. I am honored to have had the opportunity to post this review.
Namaste'.
