Keynote: Sound, Music & Harp Therapy Empowers our Creativity Christina Tourin

 
Falling under the theme of Healing Therapies, Christina Tourin, director of the International Harp Therapy Program based at San Diego Hospice in CA, outlines the Five qualities of Individualized Therapeutic Music as employed by Harp Practitioners working in Hospices and Hospitals throughout the US, Canada, Japan and Europe. Learn how the moods are created and their effect upon the listener. The concept of Resonance and vibratory energies will be discussed and attendees will have the opportunities to experience different vibrations in their physical bodies. The harp is also used as an empowering tool and Christina will show members of the audience how easy it is to create music on the small harp interacting with patients. Of special interest is how we combine the music with massage and aromatherapy - find out which essences and sounds are conducive to releasing human emotions. This workshop is for all people interested in the power of music upon the physical, spiritual and emotional aspects of our bodies and for people wishing to experience the sound of the harp.
