EP21 - The Future of Healing with Sound, w/ Dr. Jeffrey Thompson

[Guest: Jeffrey Thompson] Join Dr. Edith and Dr. Jeffery Thompson for an epic conversation about the miracle of our human bodies. Learn how the scientific application of SOUND can help us to tap into deep states of healing, well-being, and higher levels of consciousness. This is an episode to listen to several times - it’s so good! Dr. Thompson is the Founder/Director of the Center for Neuroacoustic Research in Carlsbad, California, a research center which is actualizing its vision of “Healing the Body, Heart, Mind and Spirit through the Scientific Application of Sound.” Dr. Thompson is considered the world’s premier sound healing researcher, brainwave entrainment expert, and high-tech personal transformation innovator, motivator and futurist. What an honor and gift to be able to learn from his decades of pioneering research! ~~~~~~ Topics explored: * Could sound be one of the most powerful tools on the planet to help us tap into our highest potential? * Dr. Thompson takes us on an exciting tour of the body’s inherent wisdom and intelligence. * Philosophy of Holistic practitioners vs. Allopathic practitioners. * How Dr. Thompson uses scientific instrumentation to monitor (and heal) the autonomic nervous system: heart rate variability, brain mapping, EEG brain wave devices, and brain training. * What do brainwaves look like when we reach enlightenment? And how can sound get us to these higher states of consciousness? * “Brain entrainment” -- the ability to train your brainwaves to any place we want them to go using sound waves or light flashes. * Precise brain states for joy, high states of meditation, and personal and spiritual epiphanies - Soundwaves can be used to entrain our brainwaves to these precise higher brain states. * Did you know there are (at least) 6 different brain states? Alpha, Beta, Theta, Delta, Epsilon, Gamma brain states. (Gamma brain state is associated with buddhist meditation on universal empathy, an emotional state of openness to all living beings.) * “The Default Mode Network” - made up of 4 brain zones. Associated with extremely high states of meditation like cosmic consciousness meditation. * When DMN become unsynchronized, neurological conditions arise such as ADD, ADHD, Autism, PTSD, Schizophrenia, Alzheimers, Dyslexia, Parkinsons. Alzheimers plaguing is only seen in in these 4 zones. * Two simple rules that govern everything in our body: Rule 1: survive at all costs. Rule 2: do no self-harm unless it breaks rule #1 (2a): be as ecological as possible. Get the most work with the least amount of energy expended. * “Suprachiasmatic Nucleus” inside the Hypothalamus -- derived from the same embryonic tissue as our eyes, sensitive to light-dark cycles, associated with our Crown Chakra, produces Melatonin, turning on and off sleep cycles, timing body thermostat for the correct season of the year, and influencing women’s menstrual cycles. * Solution for Irregular menstrual cycles, seasonal affective disorders, etc. * HRV (Heart rate variability) system to measure the autonomic nervous system to find the unique sound frequencies for each individual to heal. * Taking “sound therapy” on a whole other level. “Sonic induction therapy” * "Sympathetic Resonance" and the science of “Coupled Oscillators.” * What is the #1 underlying root cause of all illness and disease? * Dr. Thompson makes the case for our need for a MAJOR spiritual revolution of consciousness in order to save the planet and our species. * What is Dr. Thompson’s #1 advice for tapping into our highest levels of human possibilities? ~~~~~ Dr. Jeffrey Thompson’s Website: www.ScientificSounds.com Quantum Citizens interview with Dr. Thompson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZw1LpL50gY ~~~~~ Connect with Dr. Edith - www.SuperWellness.com / www.DrEdithUbuntu.com Pick up your copy of SuperWellness on Amazon.com
