Music to the Artist is like when she Paints and writes Poetry as it must flow out of you like a river as it is a form of release of the soul, spirit which become inner-twined, it sends cosmic energy, healing through the sound vibrations captured in each piece created that brings peace, and harmony to the listener. Peggy believes that all living things have an electro-magnetic field which has a resonating frequency vibration pattern and when in sync with music, nature, and law of the universe we become one which helps to keep a person in balance. Music can help to heal the Psych, body and mind giving off the right vibration. The Artist believes in vibrational and sound healing as with nature. .. .. .. .. ......
