CREATING HARMONY IN CHAOTIC TIMES
CREATING HARMONY WITHIN & AROUND US
BUILDING TOLERANCE & EMPATHY THROUGH MUSIC
Program Description:
Music is personal, social, and cultural. Expanding how we listen to music develops skills of empathy that increase understanding, self-awareness, and creative potential.
Through fun demonstrations of resonance using a harp and tuning forks, supported by evidence-based research, this program reveals how each individual creates and contributes through their unique neurology and lived experiences.
Groups, teams, and individuals thrive as trust builds, listening improves, perspectives shift, compassion grows and common connections are recognized, creating a stronger sense of harmony and community within and around them.
Learning Objectives:
1. Intentional development of empathetic skills through an expanded relationship with music
2. Heighten listening skills for respectful understanding
3. Recognition of sympathetic resonance that reflects physical and emotional responses
4. Transference of personal skill development with music to respectful relationships with others
5. Increase connection and sense of community within Teams & Organizations

"Enthusiasm topped the charts!
Brought up points I had never considered!" ~ Participant comment, Oncology Massage Healing Summit
"Thank you so much for your presentation yesterday! I almost did not get out in time because people kept stopping me to tell me how much they enjoyed the program. I think you not only hit a home run, . . . you hit a grand slam!!" ~ Program Coordinator for USDA/NASS
"Very appropriate to helping give better nursing care. Very different than what I expected."
"Well done. Very interesting and a new way of thinking."
"Very enlightening. I understand more about sound, vibrations and how through music/sound our inner selves can be healed."
"Very good information that I will use in my interpersonal relationships in my personal and professional life. Thank You!"
"Very useful information-can apply to real life."
"Excellent presentation. I can apply this daily."
"Makes so much sense - thankful you made us conscious of this" :-)
"Good stuff, nuf said" :-)
"Such a wise message of self-care...one cannot pour from an empty cup. Everything is connected - love it! Totally enjoyed the info and actually better understand vibrational energy, which I am sensitive to."
"The pieces about harmony vs. meeting the other person where they are or trying to bring them to your frequency is SO RELEVANT to interpersonal relationships and social work in a professional setting. SO ENLIGHTENING - THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"
"I loved hearing about the research associated with your music. Very powerful presentation. Thank you so much!"
"The breathing exercises you shared helped us all immediately. All of the information you communicated regarding vibrational energy, importance/physics of words and thoughts, and tools for integrating the ideas you shared practically into our lives was invaluable. I witnessed you connect with each woman so sweetly and I could feel some of the more complex information sink in almost effortlessly. This is a gift of yours."
"So helpful and practical! You have helped bring new insight and confirmation of our practices and values! Thank you a million!"
"I've often thought of some of these concepts, but thinking about them in terms of vibrations adds another dimension to them. My concepts have expanded and have become enriched."
"You truly helped me to get into my 'being self'! Something clicked where I saw a huge difference between my 'being' and 'doing' self. The examples of alpha and beta waves and people's frequency truly explained people's state of minds and their comfort levels. I appreciate the techniques you use for relaxing or releasing stress and I'm going to try to incorporate them in my life."
"You presented a side of emotion and feeling that I never would have thought about existing - you showed that humans can connect without words, which don't always do justice to what we feel."
"I learned many new theories about not only how music can effect one, but how to get in touch with myself using only myself."
"Very new information - very well presented." "Wonderful, contemplative theories."
"As an engineer, we're taught these concepts. I just never thought to apply them in this way."
"Such important concepts for self-care and helping others - thank you!"
"Too bad more clinical caregivers couldn't access this presentation. It would be so helpful for our ill patients."
"Your presentation was beautiful – your positive energy is contagious and awe-inspiring. Thank God for the gift of you! I heard from one of the participants from last evening, which is a first, about the enjoyment she received from last evenings presentation even though the construction caused grief, she was happy to have made it! This says a lot about you and your message. Thank you!
"You are beautiful and have reminded me that I am gifted and special. So often I don't feel that. Thank you!"
"I felt totally relaxed during your talk and the music. I loved it. Thanks so much!"
"Amy, very helpful to have the words to express the energy I feel. Your energy and your words have helped me to grow. Thank you."
