Healing Sounds

In this 30th anniversary edition of the classic guidebook on sound healing, inter- nationally recognized master teacher Jonathan Goldman presents a step-by-step process of vibrational activation using sacred and healing sounds.

Sharing many easy-to-follow sound healing exercises, such as “Vowels as Mantras” and “Overtoning,” Goldman explains in detail how to perform vocal harmonics—a form of overtone chanting—and experience their transformative and healing powers. He shows how harmonics can be used as sonic yoga for medi- tation and deep relaxation as well as to enhance energy and resonate the chakras, the energy centers of the body. Exploring the vibrational principles that underlie the framework of the universe, including frequency and resonance, Goldman explains how harmonics represent the colors of sound and affect us on all levels, bridging body, mind, and spirit. He provides diverse examples from sound heal- ing systems incorporating both mystical and scientific traditions—from Tibetan monks’ use of tantric harmonics to Dr. Alfred Tomatis’ use of Gregorian chant- ing, from Pythagoras and sacred geometry to Kabbalistic God Names and neuro- resonance. He explores mantra and chakra chanting, sacred vowels, vocal toning, conscious listening, cymatics, sonic shamanism, magical incantations, and many other vibrational and sound healing techniques.

Providing the basis for how and why sound can heal and transform, this new 30th anniversary edition of Healing Sounds also offers more than 100 minutes of exclusive audio downloads featuring recordings of sound healing exercises, guided meditations, and sonic excerpts to help you experience and embody the power of harmonics.
