Well, did you experience vibrational healing today?


Today was Christmas around the world! Yesterday, there were concerts of gorgeous music of all kinds. At my church, in addition to a beautiful choir, we had a choir of brass instruments, a violinist (my daughter!) and lots of drums! I was sitting very close to the tympani and the congas and it was fantastic! I could feel the vibrations from everything as we sang "O Come All Ye Faithful" and other great Christmas hymns. At the conclusion of the service, I felt re-energized and as vibrantly alive as I've ever felt! How about you??

Vibro-acoustic therapy


As you may know, I was in Boston this time last week, doing a presentation for Indian Hill Music School. Someone in the audience asked about vibro-acoustic therapy and it's use for hearing impaired people. Vibroacoustic therapy is powerful because these folks can participate in drumming and any sort of performance where they can feel the vibrations and thus the rhythmic power of music. Evelyn Glennie is a phenomenally talented musician (percussionist) who was born deaf. She performs all over the world both solo and with orchestra and has had numerous compositions written for her. When I heard her in Louisville several years ago she played barefoot but in total concert attire. It was one of the most powerful musical experiences I have ever had.

If you know or work with people who are hearing impaired please let them know about the power of vibroacoustic therapy!
