The Healing Power of Sound: Recovery from Life-Threatening Illness Using Sound, Voice, and Music Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Since 1991, Dr. Mitchell Gaynor has been achieving remarkable results by integrating music, vocalization, breathing, and meditation techniques in his work with patients. In The Healing Power of Sound, he presents his sound-based techniques for self-healing—techniques that anyone can use, whether faced with a life-threatening disease or simply seeking relief from the stresses of daily life.

Numerous studies have demonstrated the health benefits of music: it can lower blood pressure and heart and respiratory rates; reduce cardiac complications; increase the immune response; and boost our natural opiates. Gaynor shows how, when integrated as part of a mind-body-spirit approach to wellness, music can play a significant part in maintaining a healthy lifestyle or in healing serious disease. The Healing Power of Sound includes twelve exercises involving breathing, meditation, and "toning"—using pure vocal sound to resolve tension, release emotion, and spur the healing process—that can be used by anyone to improve health and quality of life.

Synopsis:

A presentation of sound-based techniques for self-healing. The techniques are designed for anyone to use, whether faced with a life-threatening disease or simply seeking relief from the stresses of daily life. Included are 12 exercises that can be used by anyone to improve their health.
