Head-Injuries
Playing Infinite
Mind 1 and 2 quietly in the background has helped
people with head injuries to remember and recall easier
and quicker. I wrote this music in the early 1990's, while
a study sponsored by the National Research of Canada was
researching the effects of Infinite Joy on focus and concentration
at Brock University in the Cognitive Research Laboratory
in the Neurology Department. As this was happening, the
scientist who was conducting the research asked if I could
write music for the head-injured as she was head of that
organization. Infinite Mind 1 and 2 was then written and
studied. The head injured were all responding positively.
They stayed for the testing without getting up and wandering.
They began associating and recalling from one test to the
next.
One lady, who was in a very severe crash and was in a coma
for 3 days, lost 95% of her memory. In playing the music
while relearning, she regained 80% of her memory back in
2 months.
Here’s her testimony:
“I was in a near fatal car crash 6 months ago - courtesy
of a drunk driver. My injuries included skull fracture,
loss of memory and body whiplash. I was in a coma for 3
days and hospitalized for a month. Upon awakening the doctors
told me that it would take years to recover from the 95%
memory loss I experienced. After playing Infinite
Mind 1 and 2 for only 2 months I have recovered about 80%
of my memory. The steady repetitive rhythm has
helped keep me focused and attentive as I relearn reading
and writing skills. With this music, I can now read and
understand a story the first time through. My progress has
surprised my doctors and therapists. They say I am 5 years
ahead of the normal rate of recovery. During this time,
I suffered from insomnia and paranoia due to my head injuries.
I used Sea Magic (another of Sharon's tapes), which totally
relaxed me and helped me sleep peacefully.” - P. M.,
