Sound Medicine: The Complete Guide to Healing with the Human Voice [With Audio CD] (Book & CD) [Paperback]

Wayne Perry (Author)

Book Description

Series: Book & CD | Publication Date: December 2007

"Sound Medicine is a very thoughtful and well-researched explanation of the rationale and methodology of using vocal skills to heal the mind and body. What Wayne Perry's book and life work give us is an opportunity to vision a future where healing through energy will eventually become as common as pills and surgery. As soon as the Food and Drug Administration figures out how to regulate the human voice and as soon as the pharmaceutical industry finds how to profit from our self-healing use of overtoned vowels, then no doubt that Wayne Perry's ideas will be come as common as mom and apple pie. So, while you are waiting for these momentous changes, do yourself a favor and "get the book." If you are a hypnotist, hypnotherapist, psychologist, psychotherapist, or any other profession which uses their voice as a healing tool, your self and other healing skills will be quickly enhanced by the understanding and application of Wayne Perry's methods of using the human voice."
--Tim Brunson DCH, International Hypnosis Research Institute

We live in a world of sound, frequency, and vibration. Even our bodies are vibrational. In fact, the human voice is the most natural, organic, and unique vibrational instrument available. As such, the power of the human voice can be harnessed to heal the body. While several books have been written on vibrational healing, vocal practices and toning, Sound Medicine: The Complete Guide to Healing with the Human Voice is the first book to focus on specific ways in which the voice can be used by anyone--healers and non-healers alike--as a safe, enjoyable and effective tool to heal not just the body, but the emotions, mind, and spirit.

Discover the natural vibrations, overtones, and harmonics within the human voice, and you can develop its innate therapeutic capabilities. In this extraordinary book, you will learn how to use your voice:

* To enhance health and wellness.
* For personal empowerment by identifying your own unique vibrational pattern and signature frequency.
* To free the body from stress, pain, and vibrational toxicity.
* To consciously create and sustain the magnetic attraction of chemistry and compatibility in personal relationships.
* As a subtle energy diagnostic or dowsing tool to measure and evaluate healthy and non-healthy energies, frequencies, and vibrations.

Sound Medicine will show you a vast array of sound healing principles, secrets, easy-to-learn techniques, and useful tips--including 48 empowering exercises. Also included is a clear and useful audio CD that explains and demonstrates the key exercises in the book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Review of Sound Medicine, March 22, 2009

This review is from: Sound Medicine: The Complete Guide to Healing with the Human Voice [With Audio CD] (Book & CD) (Paperback)

I have worked with sound using ancient Sanskrit seed sounds with meditation for years now. I think I was looking for something a little more in depth and a little more mystical and detailed as far as healing specific types of physical ailments. The author doesn't mention much of the spiritual aspect until the final chapter. I had the feeling that he was afraid to go there, for fear of losing readers. However, for people totally new to the wonders of sound and alternative spirituality, this is a good first book. As far as the CD goes,I really enjoyed what he had to say about the nature of illness. I just wish he would have said where his information on using specific sounds came from. If he did, I missed it.

This review is from: Sound Medicine: The Complete Guide to Healing with the Human Voice [With Audio CD] (Book & CD) (Paperback)

Largely self-taught in the developing science of sound medicine, Wayne Perry takes us on a fascinating journey of discovery and self discovery.
His book is very well researched and offers a wealth of relevant information.
His writing makes the subject matter very accessible and inspires to try out many voice exercises that are easy and really fun to do...we learn as we go and find many a treasure hidden in our own voice!
After only 2 weeks of toning, I can honestly say that the exercises allow us to unwrap a vast bouquet of untapped potential as we develop a feedback loop between our vocal apparatus and our brain, resulting in better moods, clearer thinking and a sense of increased presence in the moment: I am excited to find out the longer-term benefits down the road.
A must read for anyone who is interested in self empowerment in the most "organic" way possible. Thank you Wayne Perry!

This book was unique for me in that it focused on using the human voice for healing instead of musical instruments. Most books in this genre focus on the use of different types of music for healing. It was a very easy read and extensive background was given on the various methods. I was inspired by the exercises. The CD was so good that I didn't even start reading the book for a week.
