Jonathan Goldman Bücher

Das Summen verbindet uns mit Himmel und Erde … Einer der einfachsten und dennoch tiefsten Klänge, den die menschliche Stimme erzeugen kann, ist das sogenannte Summen. Unabhängig von Alter oder Musikalität versetzt das sanft tönende Geräusch den Körper in Schwingung und entfaltet eine beruhigende Wirkung. Wissenschaftliche Studien haben nachgewiesen, dass die selbst erzeugten Vibrationen dabei helfen, Puls und Blutdruck zu senken, Stress zu reduzieren und den Schlaf zu verbessern; so verleihen sie Gelassenheit und Entspannung. Außerdem regt das Summen die Produktion wichtiger neurochemischer Botenstoffe an, wie zum Beispiel die Ausschüttung des „Liebeshormons“ Oxytocin. Die deutsche Ausgabe von „The Humming Effect“ ist ein praktischer Leitfaden für das bewusste Summen, um mittels gezielter Übungen von den positiven Effekten der Klangheilung zu profitieren. Die Autoren erläutern deren wissenschaftliche Grundlagen und zeigen, dass damit eine wirksame Methode der Selbstheilung vorliegt, die buchstäblich die Molekularstruktur neu ausrichten kann. - Aktuelle Erkenntnisse und Forschungsergebnisse zum heilenden Einfluss von Klängen und zur Wirkung des Summens - Einfache bis fortgeschrittene Übungen für das bewusste Summen und Atmen - Praktische Online-Anleitungen zum Nachhören und Mitsummen (im englischen Original, gesprochen von den beiden Autoren)

This book provides a basic understanding of the principles of using sound as a healing modality, and how it may be used to restore balance. It combines the ancient wisdom of how sound can heal and transform, with the modern understanding of the science of sound, where quantum physicists echo the revelations of the sacred texts that “Everything is sound!” Secrets of Sound Healing explores the many different therapies that use sound to heal and transform, including ancient, modern, and futuristic methods, and features a practical application of knowledge and techniques that will assist you in leading a more harmonious life. A CD of recorded examples by Jonathan is included within the book, which offers a solid foundation for discovering how sound and music can be utilized to benefit and enrich your life.

This book explores the healing and transformative powers of harmonics from both scientific and spiritual perspectives. It includes practical exercises for using sound in healing and meditation, such as "Vowels as Mantras" and "Overtoning." The text illustrates how harmonics can serve as "sonic yoga" for meditation and deep relaxation, enhancing energy. The author, a recipient of the 1999 Visionary Awards for Best Healing-Meditation Album, draws on the wisdom of ancient Mystery Schools from Egypt, Greece, and Rome, which recognized vibration as a fundamental force in the universe. These schools developed specific chants and tones for healing and altered states of consciousness. Overtone chanting, or vocal harmonics, allows the human voice to produce multiple notes simultaneously. The book provides guidance on performing vocal harmonics and experiencing their transformative effects. As an internationally recognized master teacher, the author presents various sound healing systems that blend mystical and medical traditions, showcasing their impact on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. With easy-to-follow exercises, this work uniquely combines scientific and spiritual insights to harness the transformative power of sound for healing.

The book explores the innovative contributions of avant-garde composers from the 1950s and 60s, emphasizing their interaction with records and recording technologies. It integrates perspectives from music history, cultural studies, and sound studies to reveal how contemporary audiences engaged with this music through the same consumer technology that popular music artists utilized. This analysis sheds light on the cultural significance of these composers in shaping modern listening experiences.

Filled with insights into the works of Oscar Wilde, James Joyce, Gertrude Stein, Charlie Chaplin, Jean Rhys, and John Dos Passos, this is a provocative new reading of the relationship between modernist literature and the development of celebrity culture in the early twentieth century

"Healing Sounds" examines the capacity of sound to affect us on all levels - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. There is no sound as pure as that of harmonics, and "Healing Sounds" is the first book to explain how to benefit from their profound healing and transformative powers, from both the scientific and spiritual viewpoints.
