The ancient mystery schools all taught their students the use of sound as a creative and healing force. Now, Sacred Sounds reveals to today's seekers how to tap into the magical and healing aspects of voice, resonance and music. On a physical level, these techniques have been used to alleviate aches and pains, lower blood pressure and balance hyperactivity in children.
