156. Soundtrack of the Heart: The Frequency & Medicine of the Future with Sound Alchemist Ian Morris

If music can induce emotions, store nostalgic memories and influence physiological states… Why not use it as an alternative medicine to alleviate pain and stress, boost immune function, promote mental wellness, and facilitate restful sleep? Today’s guest is Ian Morris, the founder of Listening to Smile, a unique mind, body and spirit-centered sound healing company that has had incredible results helping people of all ages and walks of life heal things such as anxiety, depression, cancer, insomnia, MS, ADD/ADHD, obesity, autism, chronic pain, Alzheimers and more. It’s also been known to improve memory, cognition and overall feelings of well-being and wellness – I know it does for me! By using a blend of ancient sacred frequency wisdom and methods, chakra frequencies, planetary frequencies, Schumann resonances, and the Solfeggio frequencies and modern technology, listening to this music provides an experience like no other.
