MUSIC & SOUND HEALING

"In 1993 Goldman & Gurin’s work on psycho-immunology revealed that nerve fibers are contained in every organ of the immune system, which provide biological communication between the nerve endings and the immune system. They believe that there is a direct link between a person’s thoughts, attitudes, perceptions, and emotions, and the health of the immune system. This being the case, we have the ability to be proactive in the health of our body, mind and spirit through music." From http://www.healingmusic.org/Main/What_Is_Healing.htm

Arthur Harvey, Ph.D., a music professor and advocate of music therapy, shared his feelings on healing with the Music for Health Services Foundation in 1995. He stated, "As an active (music) educator for the past 35 years, I knew I had to clarify what I meant by [healing], and [to heal] if I were to know whether I believed in healing through music, and believed it is an area that I want to continue to be associated with. While we all have our own interpretations of meanings of the concepts associated with healing and heal, Webster's New Unabridged Dictionary utilizes a musical term as synonymous with Healing... becoming SOUND, well or healthy again. Healthy is defined as... being in a SOUND state. To heal is... to make SOUND, or... to grow SOUND, or... to return to a SOUND state." In addition, I believe that we can heal ourselves by literally becoming sound and making sounds.
