The Healing Power of Sound

Writing Your Own Life Song
So the legend goes: When the Buddha was asked what he did before enlightenment, he answered, “I chopped wood and carried water.” When asked what he did after achieving enlightenment, he replied “I chop wood and carry water.” On a mundane level, nothing had changed. Everything was different, however, dues to the alteration of his point of view.1
Life songs transform thoughts, judgments, and feelings into a harmonious pattern.

As a child, Don G. Campbell’s life was filled with joyous sound, visuals, and stimulation. Everything was alive and magical to him, filled with rhythm. Then, a teacher told him to sit down, be quiet and learn. He wondered what she thought he had been doing for the past several years! This is a wonderful book that provides a fresh perspective on the importance of sound and music in the early stages of life.

The Power of Harmonics
|
|
Many of the sacred chants in varying traditions have high-frequency overtones which are stimulating to the brain. When the hours of chanting were removed from the daily regimen of the monks at a Benedictine monastery, they became listless and fatigued. It was originally determined that they were undernourished, due to their vegetarian diets but eating meat only exacerbated their problems. Once the chanting was reinstated, the therapeutic and charging effects allows the monks to easily return to their prior rigorous schedule of work and prayer.1
