Presentation: Day 02 - 12:35-1:25 PM EST
The Sound of Music: Medicine of the Future
LIVE Q&A: 1:25-1:40 PM EST

Over 20 years ago, acoustic-physics scientist, John Stuart Reid experienced a seemingly miraculous healing of a painful lower back injury during cymatics experiments in Egypt’s Great Pyramid. Inspired by this event he has intensively studied the biological mechanisms that activate the body’s healing response, without use of drugs.

The pervasive thinking of Western medicine is to treat symptoms and diseases by use of drugs, yet, since the development of quantum physics in the twentieth century, discoveries made in medical physics reveal the body as a complex interplay of biofields in which energy-information flows throughout the organism. Reid will explain for us how, as energy beings, the body’s healing response can be activated by the energy of sound frequencies and music. 2,500 years ago Pythagoras of Samos travelled in Egypt and learned that music can be used in place of medicine, a fact accidentally rediscovered by Reid in Egypt, two and a half millennia later.

In his illuminating presentation John Stuart Reid will distil for us some of the important biological mechanisms discovered during his 20 years of research, and will share with us his intuitive sense that the Sound of Music will become The Medicine of the Future.

Bio:
John Stuart Reid is an acoustic-physics scientist with a mission to educate, inspire, and excite the world in the field of visible sound—known to science as “Faraday Waves” and to an ever growing number of researchers and explorers as “cymatics". Reid points out that since sound underpins almost all matter in the universe and was a potent force in the creation of life in the primordial oceans, it also carries the power to heal life. In his frequent lectures, he reveals ground-breaking information on the mechanisms that underpin sound therapy, and how it can be applied to improve health naturally. Reid's career in acoustics has spanned five decades and he is widely acknowledged as an authority in cymatic science and speaks on this subject at conferences in Europe and America. His CymaScope invention has changed our perception of sound forever: seeing sound allows us to understand this omnipresent aspect of our world and universe fuller and deeper.
