Interview:

The concept of a musical and undivided universe is found through time, across all cultures, and most spiritual traditions, where we find numerous references to the power of sound to heal, create, generate, transform, and give birth to new ideas and new consciousness. Everything in the Universe vibrates, from the smallest particle, to the planets in our solar system, to the billions of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, creating patterns of geometric waveforms, frequencies, intervals, and sounds. In Western Culture, The Music of the Spheres, or the concept of these heavenly harmonies, though existing eternally, can be traced back to 6th century BCE and Pythagoras, who recognized that sounds are subject to mathematical laws and proportions, and were the very foundation of the Universe. In our work with the Acutonics® Healing System we help people to deepen their understanding of the profound universal connections between the natural world, body, mind, and spirit, and the role that each of these play in our journey toward wholeness, or at-onement, the ultimate attunement to the Universe. By blending our knowledge of Oriental Medicine, Cosmological Studies, Physics, and Sound Healing principals, a powerful and innovative approach to wellness evolved that is deeply harmonic and spiritually based. We bring the sounds of the Universe into the world of healing through the use of precision calibrated planetary tuning forks and symphonic planetary gongs. Acupressure points and Chakras provide us with non-invasive access into these core energetic systems within the body. The planets provide us with musical intervals, archetypes, psychological depth, and correspondences that help us to fine-tune the therapeutic frequencies that are applied to the body.

Acutonics® and the many sound and music based therapies available to people today, offers us so much more than a new integrative system of health care. When we delve deeply into the mysteries of the universe, we gain insights into the critical role that intention, spiritual beliefs, and positive thoughts play in the healing journey. These universal concepts deepen our spiritual awareness and help us to identify something that our hearts and souls have always known: as above so below, as within, so without, the human body and the cosmic body are one. Oriental Medicine provides a framework to understand the deep spiritual connections between music, spirituality, and health. The philosophies, cosmologies, and roots of Oriental Medicine speak of the deep and eternal connection, the inseparable unity between Heaven, Earth, and humanity, and the heart relationship that informs this sacred union. Our hearts receive the beauty of the universe, we become truly present to life, and our joy in this beauty of creation becomes a blessing that transforms the world into a sacred place. Our spirituality rises from the spirituality of the unity itself, and we become forever implicated in one another’s presence and in the workings of all things. We have no choice but to celebrate in this miracle of existence into the place of divine mystery where the heart is fully alive, back to a place born of unity, and sacred sounds, the place we call home.
