"Music can reach farther than any other impression from the external
world can reach. The beauty of music is that it is the source of creation
and the means of absorbing it. In other words, by music the world was
created, and it is again through music that the world is withdrawn into
the source that has created it."

"Life In Balance "Star"-- some good old 21st century positive energy.
Star, quite simply, should be in your CD collection. Make it so!"
Gordon Danis, AtmoWorks Records
I just experienced live the magic and transformative power of Life In
Balance. I attended three sound sessions in a row because each time
I went a mile deeper into my True Self than I have ever gone before.
During the sessions I went exploring my world of beliefs and feelings
consciously, making changes as I realized that many beliefs and
emotions no longer serve me. A refreshing and liberating journey.
Thank you!"
Keith Varnum, Author and Speaker, Phoenix, AZ
