Brain Music
New York psychiatrist DR Galina Mindlin, an assistant professor at Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons uses ‘brain music’ – rhythmic patterns of sounds derived from recording of patients’ own brain waves – to help them overcome insomnia, anxiety and depression. The recordings sound something like classical piano music and appear to have a calming effect similar to that generated by yoga or meditation. A small double-blind study from 1998, conducted at Toronto University in Canada, found 80 per cent of those under going this treatment reported benefits.
Another study found that specially composed music induced a shift in brain-wave patterns to alpha waves, associated with the deep relaxation before you go to sleep, and that this induced less anxiety in a study of patients going to the dentist. This music, composed by John Levine especially to induce a relaxation response, has also been shown to calm down hyperactive children. Our favourite CD is called Silence of Peace.

I am in the U.K. and after taking a homeopathic remendy over 4 years ago have been dealing with ptsd at I would say at almost its very worse level. My friend told me about you but I had a collection of very similiar music already!
Still I ordered almost wearily Orange Grove Siesta for insomnia and peace. They came the next day and I duly dusted off my walkman as I climbed into bed. This was the woman who slept about 3 hours and woke every 45 mins. The improvement happened from night one, now just one week later I am sleeping 6 to 7hours.If I wake - which is becoming rare I simply tune in again! I havn't heard the end of the C.D.yet.For me you out shine from the rest! Thank you John Levine it feels as if you have all but saved my life.

Cicely specializes in aromatherapy, Indian head massage, Swedish massage and No-Hands massage®. Cicely believed that all relaxation music, from start to finish, was very similar, with few actual benefits to sway her decision other than how many times she'd heard it before and whether she could bear to listen to it again. One day she decided to try the 'Silence of Balance' CD during one of her client's Indian Head Massages. Within a few moments she felt noticeably more relaxed and calm, as did her client who immediately asked about this musical composition. ”I found it more than just music, it really touched my soul. When I listen to Alphamusic, I feel more relaxed and I find more energy to work,” says Cicely. It calms her mind and also her body's muscular tension. She thinks that energy is trapped in the body, like being held in a small tunnel and it needs to be released somehow. Alphamusic has such a huge soothing effect that it helps this trapped energy to get free. From that day, Cicely predominantly uses John's Alphamusic for all her relaxing treatments, because it has such a comforting and longer lasting effect. ”I needed music that I would feel comfortable with, and now I have found the perfect fit.”
One of Louise clients suffers from tinnitus. It is the perception of sound in the human ear in the absence of corresponding external sound. When the ringing is constant, it can be annoying and distracting. Sometimes it can be so severe that may prevent person from leading a normal life.
Terry is 60 years old, very fit and healthy man, who plays a lot of tennis. About year ago he caught a very bad cold which resulted in tinnitus. He visited many doctors and specialists. He has tried many alternative and complementary therapies. However it didn’t help him a lot. Doctors couldn’t explain why he got tinnitus. Then he came to Louise for her reiki therapy. “I started playing him ‘Silence of Vision’ states Louise, “and the result was marvelous. In the end of the treatment, he felt much better. His tinnitus declined. When I previously did reiki for him without Levine’s Alphamusic, he didn’t notice the same results nor had the same feelings. So the combination of my reiki and John’s music is just perfect combination. He comes to me once in two weeks and he feels much, much better, better than ever.”
While doing the reiki treatment Louise used to play other new age music, but it didn’t work so well for her clients, so when she found John’s, she didn’t even think of changing it for other type of music as she thinks that she found what she was looking for.
“I would recommend this music to other therapists, definitely. It seems to work very effectively with energy treatment such as reiki healing. It creates very calm atmosphere and feelings in the room. It is nice music for the background. You don’t have to focus on this, you are only aware that there is something in the room that changes the mood perfectly in the right way” admits Louise.
