“Since the time of the Indian rishis the sound of humming has been
acknowledged as the fundamental vibration of our divine self. The
Goldmans have superbly, practically, and with great simplicity
expanded upon this truth and demonstrated the potency of the hum to
heal at all levels of our being. The Humming Effect, with its audio
tracks, is an essential text in extending the range of what the
human voice can achieve in self-empowered wellness.”

Voice*
