Healing Music Therapy
The medical community is now coming to the
understanding that sacred music can be used
to effectively manage pain, moods,
depression, blood pressure, and anxiety, as
well as the nausea associated with
chemotherapy and the immobility associated
with Parkinson's disease. Indeed, exciting
research suggests that the brain responds to
music almost as if it were medicine. The
anecdotal evidence of music therapists
bolsters the credibility of such research by
demonstrating that the healing properties of
music can lessen a patient's post-surgery
recovery time while helping them handle
future complications. Many in the field
recommend that music be used in conjunction
with traditional healing modalities. To this
end, the Rootlight Sacred Music series can
do much in the way of helping patients, as
it creates a positive, uplifting atmosphere
in which they are better able to cope with
the health challenges they face. Our sacred
music warms the heart, soothes the soul, and
stimulates concentration and creativity. Beneficial for Children
Sound is not only beneficial in times of
physical distress and challenged health, but
also, music affects development in the womb
and in early childhood. Researchers observe
an increase in fetal heart rate when in the
presence of music. Moreover, when a mother
listens to sacred music during her
pregnancy, she creates a healing, soothing,
and uplifting environment for the child to
enter into. Of course, a child continues to
develop after birth, when environment and
experience combine to create mental circuits
and patterns between neurons, those
electrically charged nerve cells that
transfer information through the brain. When
the neurons are not exercised, they cease to
properly form the necessary pathways. The
brain then trims the fat, so to speak, by
pruning the unused neurons. Understand that
a critical window of opportunity for the
development of both verbal and musical
abilities opens at birth and closes around
the age of eleven. Music can assist in the
cognitive development of very young
children; for musical training generates the
neural connections used during abstract
reasoning and the assimilation of
mathematical concepts. Meanwhile, the spoken
language heard by an infant creates a
complex set of interconnections that have an
important impact on overall brain
development. To be sure, there is an overlap
in the neurons used to process music,
language, and mathematical and abstract
concepts. The more parents sing and/or play
sacred music in the presence of their baby
or young child, the more the brain generates
neural circuits and patterns. It is
essential then, that parents cultivate,
encourage, and support their children's
appreciation for music. Again, sacred music
is recommended for its ability to create a
high vibration and beneficial atmosphere
that helps to calm children while
heightening their level of intelligence and
intuitive thinking. Children should be
encouraged to chant along with sacred music;
for this is a magical experience that forms
patterns and creates energy fields of
resonance and movement in the surrounding
space. The energy absorbed positively alters
the child's breathing, pulse, blood
pressure, muscle tension, and skin
temperature. Due to the high level of
unfiltered noise and environmental chaos,
the beneficial impact of sacred music is
greater when the volume is kept low. Why Our Sacred Music is Unique All music on the Rootlight label has been created during the most positive and healing phase of the Moon to magnify the beneficial impact upon the listener. They are created in accord with the natural and healing laws of the universe. All our music is especially created to bring their listener a host of benefits and blessings. Our sacred music series is a unique collection of spiritual recordings that enable you to work efficiently with your breath. Many of the tracks on the Rootlight Sacred Music CD series call for you to use the breath in order to enhance the depth of the effects of the kundalini Shakti mantras offered. Once your breathing pattern is regulated to four breaths per minute, your central brain will begin functioning more intensely. Those who work with the mantras on these CDs properly, will breathe at about two and half breaths per minute. The pineal gland and pituitary glands shift their relation to each other, making the effects of the outer and inner sound more potent. Thus, these powerful mantras are able to penetrate more deeply. As a result, you will become better able to synchronize and move into the divine flow thereby more fully manifesting your intentions.
