Today I felt more tapped into a meditative state while listening to music with lyrics as opposed to the silence. Is this proper meditation? I don't know because I felt more tapped into a particular emotion actually but it was calm and there was room to explore in this state.

Lyrics distract me in meditation but maybe that's because i channel poetry. But if i listen to new age music and some classical music i often get pulled into that restful state between sleep and meditation. If i can just stay focused then... sometimes i go deeper then without the music.
