Why raising our vibration increases serendipity

TEDx Talks

Joanna McEwen speaks about coherence through sound therapy and its importance in our lives.

• [The most important possibility of this technology is the possibility of bringing the mind to coherence (absorption, samadhi) through the use of binaural beats such as the Monroe Institute's Hemi-Sync.]
• [In mysticism and metaphysics, coherence can be defined as the presence of peace, grace, ease, and also acceptance, appreciation, allowing (versus resistance) or, to employ a concept found in Buddhism, "pure pervasive kindness toward everything" or "friendliness toward everyone," which engenders harmony and synchrony.]

Joanna McEwen trained with The College of Sound Healing, British Academy of Sound Therapy, and Don "The Gong" Conreaux. Her journey with sound began as a teenager when she would soothe her teenage angst with the baroque rhythms of Pachabel’s Cannon. While DJ-ing in her 20s she saw the power of music to move and shift people’s emotions and energies, and it was at this time she first came across the research of Fabian Maman on the ability of sound frequencies to explode cancer cells [similar to the banned-for-working Royal Rife (rife.org) and Hulda Regehr Clark cures].  This led her to explore sound therapy with James D’Angelo...First Sunday of the month (Dec. 3, 2017), 7:30-8:30 pm at Unity Studios, 130a Lewes Rd, Brighton, BN2 3LG.
