Basis of How Vibration works in Universe and the Human System (Physically, Mentally, Emotionally, and Spiritually)
Vibration is the most basic component of all levels of reality. Everything is vibration: sound, color, light, geometry, color, and the quantum world – thoughts, emotions, and spirit. These laws thus affect everything.
18 Years of Research and Instruction in a California State Approved College with 20 instructors.
“The ultimate gift we can give the world is to grow our tiny humans into adult humans who are independent thinkers, compassionate doers, conscious questioners, radical innovators, and passionate peacemakers. Our world doesn’t need more adults who blindly serve the powerful because they’ve been trained to obey authority without question. Our world needs more adults who challenge and question and hold the powerful accountable.” ~ L.R. Knost
Current Problems in Childhood Education
Sound Solutions
Children and students are subject to a variety of pressures, ranging from parental, academic, societal to cultural. To these, the last ten years have added other forms of stress from new technologies, excessive screen time, as well as increased exposure to negative and violent content.
All of these stressors are resulting in behavioral, social and academic dysfunction.
All of these stressors create chaotic vibrations in children and students.
To help reverse this trend, this curriculum has been designed to provide coherent, stable vibrations that create peace physically, mentally and emotionally.
Peace
– Physical peace creates better health and aids in development of good motor coordination
– Mental peace creates better focus and concentration
– Emotional peace creates more emotional stability
All of these result in more harmonious relationships.
Understanding Based on Experience
The whole program has a basis in the underlying physics and mathematics of how vibration works in the universe from the structure and movement of the galaxies down to the cellular level within the body — from Neutonian physics to quantum mechanics.
The curriculum has been designed so that it is coherently progressive over the years. Every exercise that the children perform in the younger years forms the basis for later understanding of the mechanisms of what was experienced. They learn why the exercises were implemented and the underlying physics as to how they work to create their effects and benefits. Now it all makes sense.
This understanding of the mechanisms of how nature and vibration work are key to creative application of these concepts in:
- Social and Behavioral Sciences
- Physical Sciences and Technologies
- Humanities and Creativity
- Math and Geometry
- It even provides a basis for the understanding of History
This all leads to healthy social and emotional skills, and heightened creativity within successful and fulfilling careers.
Connection to the Ways of Nature
Basing all of the exercises on the laws of nature provides a connection that makes each exercise have more meaning.
Each exercise has a clear goal as to why it is important to learn:
- Understanding how the universe works — including the human system physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. A conscious awareness of a connection to the ways of nature helps one to work more in alignment to change the world.
- Learning techniques and skills that can be used in the world — socially, emotionally and in a career.
- Bringing them to a place of peace and stillness so this becomes the norm.
When a teacher is more clear on why something is being taught their focus and enthusiasm creates more engagement and interest for the children.
Learning that is a Blast
There is nothing more important than to inspire a child to want to learn. A key component of this curriculum has been to make every exercise a joy to experience.
Not only is this inspiring for the children, it is healthier for the teachers. When the teacher is also enjoying the exercise, it creates the ideal learning environment where learning is truly a blast… and children can’t wait to go to school the next day.
All of this enthusiasm even spills over into the home where the parents start to feel the effects themselves.
“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.” ~ Albert Einstein

5 Tracks
Each Track is progressive and develops over 18 years.
The younger years are all experiential.
The older years are about understanding and utilizing what they experienced in the younger years.
If not starting from the beginning (as a baby) the experiental exercises are incorporated and age appropriate.
Rollover with your Mouse to see Detailed Information
Physics of Vibration
The basis of how it all works at all levels of reality. Each child eventually builds his own instrument.
Instrument Sounds
Experiencing all Sounds as a way of building the widest neuropathways in the brain as possible, and as a way of understanding different cultures.
Music
Not in order to be a musician, but as a way of understanding the Universe and the body Physically, Mentally, Emotionally and Spiritually.
Sacred Geometry
Understanding the archetypal geometrical patterns that make up all aspects of nature and the body and Spirit.
Emotional Expression
How to express one’s self with sound and the voice as we once did perfectly as babies.
FAQ
Can I join the classes also as a parent?
Yes. Then you can practice and play with the exercises later with your child — or by yourself :-).
Does my child have to be a singer or musician?
No. The truth is all of us sing as we speak. That’s all they need.
Is there any science behind this?
We have studied the top 30 books on brain development for children at different ages. Every exercise is based on this information and is referenced. There is also now a large amount of research around how sound affects us at all levels of reality.
What is Sound Healing?
Sound Healing is the study of how sound and vibration affects us physically, mentally, emotionally and Spiritually. The term Healing is misnomer. It is used for healing but also for accessing higher and more stable states of consciousness, as well as for better sleep, creativity, focus and to overcome ADD/ADHD.
What if my child doesn't like the exercises?
Please let us know and we will try and refine the exercises.
How much work is this?
Just a little bit collecting the materials and getting ready to do the exercise. From there it is a whole lot of fun!
Are the classes recorded?
Yes. We send the recordings out within a week.
I would like to get trained as a parent.
We offer classes and even a full Certificate Program for parents if you might be interested.
