The Ultimate Chakra Balancer
svsanctum | Los Angeles | 09/25/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)
"I have to say, in my opinion this is the ultimate crystal bowl healing recording! The sound recording is of the highest quality, the tones of the bowls weave perfect harmonies, and it is extremely powerful in purifying the auric field and balancing the chakra centers. This is deeply therapeutic sound and I have seen some profound transformations in my massage patients when I use it. It seems to strengthen and revitalize on the physical level, while at the same time breaking through blocks and lifting the vibration. You feel rejuvenated and serenely peaceful at the same time. If you are looking for an authentic sound healing tool that efficiently moves energy, you've found it in CHORDS OF THE COSMOS. Sound healer Deborah Van Dyke has done her homework and delivered the goods!"
GREAT GIFT TO HUMANITY

"The sounds of the stars - what a harmonic attunement and a gift to humanity from a very gifted healer! Its amazing how these sounds deeply touch and align the various areas of the body. I have worked with chakra sounds before but this is sound healing on a whole new level. Most chakra attunements are limited to seven notes. CHORDS OF THE COSMOS utilizes the complete spectrum of healing sounds by employing the full twelve note scale of crystal bowls to produce harmonic keys that retune and awaken the entire body. Every body is unique and responds to different sounds and this CD delivers all the possible healing combinations in a very serene yet powerful way. I am a massage therapist and in the past two weeks of working with this new CD I have witnessed profound responses from my clients when I've played it during our sessions. This is truly music that is aligned with the higher rhythms of the universe and can attune us to the same. I give CHORDS OF THE COSMOS the highest of "STARS", whether just for yourself or for use in your healing practice, this should be on your healing table."
HEAVENLY HEALING HARMONIES!
Sherri Burch | 09/30/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)
""Since the difference between one dimension of reality and another is its rate of vibration, the key to transformation lies within music" .....this quote by Evan Pritchard describes the essense of CHORDS OF THE COSMOS. This CD provides a deeply meditative sound journey of progressively ascending crystal bowl harmonies of the zodiac which is nothing short of transformational. I use this in conjunction with my Reiki healing practice and find it an invaluable tool. A profound vibrational key for shifting your frequency and retuning to a new channel of harmony. Everyone in the healing field should have this CD!"
WONDERFUL CD

"I do listen to this recording at least once a day - sometimes with headphones, sometimes I just let it play in the background. When I listen to it with headphones, I feel the sounds reverberating first in my head and then spreading throughout the rest of my body, re-arranging, harmonizing and aligning my energy field and by body from the top of my head, all the way to the tips of my toes. Then, I feel ready to embrace the day, balanced, nourished, strengthened."
Each tract a meditation
Sherri Burch | Portland, OR, USA | 08/16/2004

"I think that Chords of the Cosmos is a wonderful resource for anyone seeking sustained meditative work. I also study astrology and enjoy selecting sequences of the different tracts to 'tune in' to the various notes revealed for each sign or season, what a great way to open one's consciousness to the subtle music of creation! And because a whole tract is dedicated to each zodiacal sign, one can create meditative 'sessions', such as for the four elements, the three qualities, or any array thereof.
Another example would be to arrange or program the tracts into the Chaldean order of planets (based on the signs that each planet occupies within one's own horoscope) to feel the flow of harmony or changes from the Sun to Mercury and Venus to Earth (the sign opposing the 'Sun Sign'), followed by a rendezvous in the sign of the Moon... then meditatively guide one's consciousness outward through Mars to Jupiter and Saturn using the harmonies of these signs of the Zodiac. As the Sun is the "heart" of our solar system model, this meditation could be considered a "heart-centered" approach for guiding the flow of consciousness from the source of light and warmth and then outward through each planet... and back again!.
The chord arrangements for each sign are beautiful, each tract is a meditation in itself!
I've read how Pythagorus studied number and notes with his monochord, how Einstein would play his violin for inspiration while solving his equations. _Chords of the Cosmos_ makes it possible to engage in similar meditative journeys, the possibilities are endless. With this gift one can literally craft their own meditative vehicle through the beautiful vibrancy of the crystal bowls, played in layers of harmony to resonate with the seasons of time.
