Healing Music
Posted March 05, 2010
We were delighted to invite Gerit Williams into our Hale Makua ohana this past Wednesday. Gerit is a virtuoso acoustic guitarist with a truly unique sound that is bluesy, classical, flamenco, rock and eastern all rolled into one. One of the goals of our activities program is to promote cognitive stimulation, social interaction, and increase emotional expression and communication of feelings. Gerit plays at a special 528hz tuning that helps heal people with his music. Is has been shown in studies that the 528hz frequency helps to repair DNA in labratory tests. Music has also been shown to provide:
- Stress and anxiety reduction
- An outlet for expression of feelings
- An opportunity to maximize health and wellness
- Non-pharmacological management of pain and discomfort
- Memory recall, which contributes to reminisce
- Opportunities to interact socially with others
With this knowledge and the power of intention, Gerit truly entertained and healed with his musical talents. The residents enjoyed having him in their home, and hope to have him back soon.
