Healing Sounds examines the capacity of sound to affect us on all levels - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. There is no sound as pure as that of harmonics, and Healing Sounds is the first book to explain how to benefit from their profound healing and transformative powers, from both the scientific and spiritual viewpoints.

Page vii We are living in extraordinary times; times of enormous shifts in awareness, times of great changes in culture and society, times of planetary evolution. Some would say that vibrational modulations are occurring. Others would say that it is earth changes. And yet others would say that it is the end of the millennium blues. I like to talk about frequency shifts and their relationship to people and the planet. For many different reasons, we are waking up, becoming aware. About ourselves. About human potential. About creating a better world. About changing reality. Sound plays a key role in these times, for sound is helping us adjust to the frequency shifts that are occurring on so many levels.
