How Liquid Mind is Used
Many Liquid Mind listeners have asked how my music can be used in healing settings. While I make no scientific claims, a content analysis of over 700 emails I've received from listeners reveals patterns as to how folks use it. According to the NIH a growing body of research indicates that listening to or making music affects the brain in ways that may help promote health and manage disease symptoms. Below is a list of the subjects addressed in those unsolicited emails. I post this not as an endorsement for any particular use, but rather as a service to those who feel they may be helped by my slow sedative music.

Woodruff, Ph.D. has created two techniques for rapid stress reduction using Liquid Mind. Chuck Wild, Liquid Mind |
