The conscious ear : my life of transformation through listening

This autobiography by the French physician and ear specialist whose work has had a major impact on dyslexia and other learning disorders was originally published in French (1977). The Tomatis Method, which helps develop listening and communication skills, is used in 15 different countries. Tomatis addresses his experience with some of the most difficult therapeutic and educational problems (e.g., stuttering, autism, dyslexia, balance, motor control, and integration) and shows how they are affected and controlled by the ear. His account will be welcomed by speech therapists, performing artists, educators, and psychotherapists. Excellent. Interesting. Unexpected stories and research about how our ears ( the ability to hear) affects our body's ability to grow even from initial divisions of cells. How certain " sound frequencies" help " charge the brain" and stimulate it and the body in harmonious positive ways and how trauma affects sound production and also our ability to hear certain frequencies, resulting in poor health or loss of function of such things as ability to sing on pitch.. and how function can be restored through consciously working with certain frequencies of sound.
