520 "Why does a baby's cry instantaneously flood a mother's
body with a myriad of stress hormones? How can a song on
the radio stir up powerful emotions, from joy to anger,
regret to desire? Why does sound itself evoke such primal
and deeply felt emotions? A vibration that travels through
air, water and solids, sound is produced by all matter,
and is a fundamental part of every species' survival. But
there is a hidden power within sound that has only just
begun to be investigated. Sound Medicine takes readers on
a journey through the structure of the mouth, ears, and
brain to understand how sound is translated from acoustic
vibrations into meaningful neurological impulses. Renowned
neurologist and Ayurvedic expert Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary
explains how different types of sound impact the human
body and brain uniquely, and explores the physiological
effects of sound vibration, from altering mood to healing
disease.Blending ancient wisdom with modern science, Dr.
Chaudhary traces the history of sound therapy and the use
of specific mantras from previously unknown texts--traced
back to the Siddhas, a group of enlightened yogis who
created a healing tradition that served as the precursor
to Ayurvedic medicine--to explain the therapeutic
application of sounds for a wide range of conditions.
Sound Medicine offers practical, step-by-step lessons for
using music and mantras, whether you're a beginner or
searching for a more advanced practice, to improve your
health in body, mind, and spirit."--Provided by publisher.
