5 ANCIENT SOCIETIES

6 Horden, P. (Ed.) Music as medicine : The history of music therapy since antiquity. Aldershot, UK: Ashgate.

7 Plato (428 BC 348 BC) Music molds character, when modes of music change, the fundamental laws of the state change with them. Music is medicine to the soul. Justice is to the soul as health is to the body. Through music, the soul learns harmony and rhythm and even a disposition to justice. Kleisiaris CF, Sfakianakis C and Papathanasiou, L Med Ethics Hist Med, 2014, 7:6. Health Care practices in ancient Greece: The Hippocratic Ideal,.

8 APOLLO: GREEK GOD OF MUSIC AND MEDICINE

9 Elements of Music Used in Conscious Ways: 1. Harmony: Evokes spiritual feelings. 2. Melody: Appeals to emotions/mind. 3. Rhythm: Influences the body. Holism = MIND + BODY +SPIRIT Carroll, D Professor of Music Therapy, Music Department, Universite du Quebec a Montreal, Montreal, Quebec. Carroll.debbie@uqam.ca

10 PYTHAGORAS AND MUSIC Through music, Pythagoras performed what he called soul-adjustments. He discovered: Music is Mathematics Arithmetic= Number in itself Geometry= Number in space Music/Harmonies= Number in time Astronomy= Number in space & time Carroll, D Professor of Music Therapy, Music Department, Universite du Quebec a Montreal, Montreal, Quebec. Carroll.debbie@uqam.ca

12 VIBRATIONAL MEDICINE Within certain subspecialties of conventional medicine, the groundwork for a shift from the Newtonian pharmacokinetic approach to an Einsteinian view of pure energetic healing is presently being formulated. This permutation from conventional drug and surgical therapy to electromagnetic healing represents the beginnings of a revolution in consciousness for the medical profession. Gerber R. Vibrational Medicine: Third Edition Bear & Co. Vermont..p. 91.

13 HUMAN MULTIDIMENSIONAL ANATOMY Newtonian Einsteinian! Mechanistic: physical clockwork! Intricate chemical systems powering a structure of nerve, muscle, flesh and bones.! Matter as a substance composed of particles of light.! Wave/particle duality of matter: Holographic energy field.! Difference between physical matter and etheric matter is difference of frequency. Gerber R. Vibrational Medicine: Third Edition Bear & Co. Vermont. p

16 THE RESONANT SY STEM Your Body Piano

17 THE RESONANT SY STEM Your Body! Trachea, throat, mouth, nasal cavities and sinuses,! Vocal Chords: Vibrating strings,! Breath is energy source. Piano! Hollow, box-like body,! Strings vibrate,! Human hands are energy source. Riley L. & Sweeney D. Integrative Anatomy and the Resonant System. Harps for Healing LLC

18 WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF THE RESONANT SY STEM? Every body organ and tissue has a frequency or group of frequencies. The human body is an orchestra of harmonic sound. Every organ has an inherent resonance. When one of these gets out of tune, like an orchestra, the entire body suffers. Laura Riley, Founder, Harps for Healing LLC
