Information, Complexity and Communication
A Unique Approach to Training the EEG
Results of Acu-Tone™ on the EEG




Neurofeedback has traditionally focused on increasing or decreasing amplitude in particular defined bands, e.g. delta 1-4hz, theta 4-8hz etc.  There have been a few training protocols that have attempted to focus less on predefined bands.  Wide band suppression or “squash” protocols are an example of that.  In these protocols the goal is to reduce amplitude across the whole range of frequencies.  These protocols have traditionally focused on training one or two sites at a time.  The underlying assumption in amplitude training is that increasing or decreasing the amplitude at certain sites will enable the brain to function more efficiently.



Recently there has been increased interest in connectivity, coherence, and synchrony training.  These approaches focus on the ability of the brain to communicate across the cortex.  This is a measure of co-activation, does one location on the cortex activate a particular frequency range in concert with another.  The underlying assumption in connectivity training that there is an ideal amount of connectivity and that either too much or too little connectivity interferes with the brains ability function effectively.


Despite the differences in focus of amplitude and connectivity training they do have one component in common in that both are focusing on particular frequency bands and encouraging change in the specific values in those band.


In recent years there have been multiple studies of the EEG that have begun to quantify the brains electrical activity in new and different ways.
Some of the initial work was done in the field of anesthesia research where there was a desire to better quantify depth of anesthesia and levels of consciousness.  The ability to accurately ascertain level of consciousness is vital in surgery.  The previous physical signs that were used were crude and sometimes unreliable, with patients being either under sedated and experiencing pain or having memories of the surgery or over sedated and experiencing serious medical problems up to and including death.  The Bispectral Index and various computations of Entropy values have been used in measuring depth of anesthesia.  The Bispectral Index (BSI) is a proprietary algorithm, while the various formulations of Entropy are more widely available.  Both have been shown to be accurate measures of level of consciousness.  Several other measures have been created in order to find a metric that is similar to Bispectral Index.  Two of these are the Beta Ratio and Power Fast/Slow. Beta Ratio measures the change in gamma amplitude relative to the beta bands and Power Fast/Slow measures the change in gamma amplitude in relation to the total spectrum.  During anesthesia induction both these measures show changes closely correlated to changes in entropy and BSI*.   In both anesthesia and consciousness research entropy is defined as a measure of available cortical microstates.

Cortical microstates are brief, 100-200 millisecond, epochs of semi stable electrical behavior. Each one reflects the activation of a different network of neurons, and each corresponds to different states, from visual imagery to abstract thought, emotional feelings and face perception.


Consciousness Research and Theory

Recent study of consciousness has brought together the concepts of microstates, complexity, differentiation, and synchronous behavior.

Microstates.

There has been a great deal of research on the Microstate theory of consciousness.

Dietrich Lehmann and his colleagues have researched the make up of cortical microstates.  In more than a dozen studies they have identified differences in microstates depending on the task at hand and have begun to develop a database of normative microstates.  They see the development and dissolution of these microstates as the “building blocks of consciousness”.  Conscious experience depends on the ability to “string together” multiple microstates.  They believe that what we experience as a continuous stream of consciousness actually consists of separate blocks, which follow each other rapidly, involve disparate regions of the cortex and implement different identifiable mental actions and functions.

Lehmann, Thomas Koenig, and E Roy John have published a paper that details normative microstates across developmental stages.

Alexander and Andrew Fingelkurts have accomplished similar research in which they describe “meta-stability” in the EEG.  They describe a process of neurons synchronizing into neural assemblies or pools.  These pools can further synchronize into meta-stable patterns that can then combine to create more complex patterns.  Meta-stability is the ability of autonomous areas of the brain to momentarily enter into coordinated activity.  They have been able to map these and categorize these meta-stable states.  These states are seen as occurring against a backdrop of “multivariabiltiy” or complexity.

EEG Complexity

Complexity in the EEG measures the degrees of freedom or the independence of the variables in a system.   While synchronous activity has long been known to be an essential part of the brains ability to process information, synchrony alone is not sufficient.  Seizure activity and anesthesia induced sleep show a great deal of synchronous behavior.  These states are clearly not ones in which information processing is maximized.   

Several researchers have claimed that complexity is another essential component of conscious processes.  Complexity can be seen in the time domain and spatial domains.   Timing based complexity involves the independence of oscillations of all frequencies in a specific data stream or from a specific location.  Spatial complexity refers to the independence of activity between different sites.  That is to say no one site’s activity is overly dependent on another site’s activity.

A temporally complex EEG signifies greater cortical freedom.   The ability of the cortex to rapidly form and dissolve microstates is maximized.

Spatial complexity is a measure of differentiation in the EGG.  No one site’s activity is overly reliant on another.  A spatially complex EEG allows for the rapid formation and dissolution of communication networks across the cortex.

Spectral entropy is one common measure of temporal complexity in the EEG and mutual information is a measure of spatial complexity (differentiation) across areas of the cortex.


Along with complexity and differentiation, communication between brain areas is also important to robust brain function.

Several recent studies have shown that the gamma activity at distant sites seen under cognitive task is linked to increases in synchronous activity in other bands.  In one such study electrodes were placed directly on the cortex of patients undergoing surgery to address intractable seizure activity.  Patients are awake during this type of surgery as they have to perform different tasks to ascertain if the surgeons are probing the proper areas.   EEG was measured from multiple surface electrodes during those tasks.  One finding of this study was that the activation of gamma waves at distant sites was accompanied by an increase in synchronous theta between those sites.  It was speculated that synchronous theta is the mechanism that supports the activation of gamma at distant sites.


It is the combination of temporal complexity, spatial complexity, and communication/co-activation across distant sites that is essential for a productively functioning brain.

In Statistics, the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (sometimes referred to as the PPMCC or PCC, or Pearson's r, and is typically denoted by r) is a measure of the Correlation (linear dependence) between two variables X and Y, giving a value between +1 and −1 inclusive. It is widely used in the sciences as a measure of the strength of linear dependence between two variables. It was developed by Karl Pearson from a similar but slightly different idea introduced by  Francis Galton in the 1880s.

Discussion:


           There is there nothing apparent that stands out with the Correlation data so far. Prior to test there could have been many other ways to choose what to correlate. There was no apparent way to know beforehand which measures would be most relevant for this particular condition.  However we are now in a position to contextualize our results within a theoretical framework excerpted from this paper by Dr. George Martin. The information he has distilled from the top researchers representing the most advanced work on conscious states & EEG analysis. He provided this information freely to promote his EEG Entropy protocols for Neurofeedback training.  I have excerpted the relevant parts of this paper here for our analysis.
         

BSI was very significant in both hemispheres but significantly more so in the right hemisphere. Since Entropy correlates to BSI fairly well, it stands to reason that out of all the possible measures we might examine, the relevant ones for BSI are likely to be the same or similar as the graphed indexes above shown to be highly correlated to Entropy. This is based on the fact that BSI changed dramatically in our experiments and BSI is correlated to Entropy. Entropy is correlated to the other Indexes shown above in graphs: Amplitude, dominant frequency, variability. Our results have provided evidence to guide us in a specific direction narrowing down the choices of measures to these few. We may now proceed with more confidence these other variables may also be relevant to our goal.

STORM Warnings...



STORM warnings... 
The waters call out of the need to be at a temperature that sustains the complex balance of life. Mother Nature's intelligence acts to assure the ultimate survival of all life. The interplay of Earth, Water, Fire, Air. is at play in any storm activity. The need of one to offlset the imbalances of the other brings forward torrential rains, storm activity, hurricanes, flooding, high winds... Yes, pray for the safety of all who may be in the path of the raging storm... pray too, for the realization that we cannot continue to violate the wellbeing of Mother Nature, heeding its desperate calling, to be respectful, not to contaminate with poisons, pollute with industrial wastes, dumb into the oceans materials that threaten ocean health and the wellbeing of all life forms. YES, let us PRAY.

When we allow ourselves to fully understand how the Four Elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, interact in ourselves as well as in nature, and all living matter, we can put an end to the blame game and initiate that which brings about a balance of theseelements, be it for the personal health of our bodies, the health of our home, the greater environment of communities, nations and the world... we will come to the intended blessings and grace of Nature and BEING... 

I have lived through the internal storm that ravages, that consumes, that destroys, that ultimately, unchecked, unattended to, ignored, can bring an end to what we have defined as LIFE. Where was the cry, where were the imbalances, what was the need, what was the call to Body, to Mind, to Spirit that CANCER delivered. That was over 35 years ago... with the utmost respect for the intelligence of the body, the marvel of its communication, the marvel of it to transform, to integrate, to heal, has brought me to be free of this once raging storm... thus the formal founding of the APOGEE Paradigm, 1983. Consciousness of Creation, of Mother Earth, of Ourselves... be this the awakening... yes, STORM warnings...

Defining The APOGEE Acu-Tone™ Paradigm Alignment of Self: The foundation of a new medicine






Defining The APOGEE Acu-Tone™ Paradigm

Alignment of Self:
The foundation of a new medicine


A New Consciousness

It is a fact that sound energy alters our physiological processes. Presently however, a leap in understanding is shedding light upon all the implications. It turns out the very structure of our cells are designed to be intimately attuned to sound. The closer look into cell structures with new powerful forms of measurement is revealing how sound is enmeshed within the very processes of cell function.  Apart from this new emerging science we do not see ordinarily how these energies of our outer world resonate and sound in the body. Our knowledge of this influence of outside stimuli depends upon experience. But what do we know of how the body is changed in that experience? We  experience qualities of sensation, emotion and thought but we cannot see how they rise from our body to produce our general state. It would appear for all the richness of our experience we are largely blind to how such energies change the function and structure of our being. We would not likely notice what or how much is missing in the assemblage of our reality - which for us always seems beyond question. 

The very weight of experience itself is a fact that precludes any question. Upon whatever it may be based, experience itself convinces us of our hold on reality forging a deep belief that we are consciousness – as if what we see must be the whole. Science is however in a position to find the gaps in this whole, to complete this picture, and to identify that which we could not even guess we are not yet aware. Neuroscience has revealed that the states we experience ride upon the waves of very rapid physiological processes called microstates. These brief surges of electrical activity occur on time scales far beyond our ordinary awareness. Many studies seem to point to the fact that we may only be fully aware at very brief instants in time. Not being aware of this very brief periodic window we are allegedly aware – indicates that much of our thinking does not have to attend the full bright light of consciousness. Thought may largely be a mechanical process driven by the spark of these moments of self awareness. This fact in particular highlights the significant role perception has in energizing and defining both actual and apparent moment of awareness. Because we do not notice the gap between the active moments or actual awareness, and when it lapses, we believe we are aware throughout. Sometimes we catch the lapse of actual after the fact some time later. However, we would also have to catch the prior state to realize any transition. Normally our observation does not maintain constant this long. It would appear that we do not distinguish a fairly significant discrepancy between when we are more conscious and when we are less. Even if we behave and think as if we are conscious, the spark that drives these thoughts and actions has long since vanished. Analogously electric current is spent upon forming the word patterns in a computers word processor program. Similarly, sparks of stimuli energy elicit corresponding associated patterns received in prior experience. The current keeps flowing just like impressions keep entering us. But somehow from one moment to the next our sense of ourselves may be different. The impression somehow triggers a sense of the whole of ourselves, which forms a container for that impression. This “doubling of impressions” sustains our awareness. What must first be realized is that within a span of so much ongoing change we fail to notice how it changes us, just as we might fail to see why it is when we come to realize it. All of a sudden we appear, and everything seems to change all around us.

If impressions trigger programs that determine thoughts and action what does it even mean to be conscious? It is as if some combination of these programs would appear to cancel each other out leaving only a sense of oneself in its wake. As if reading a koan designed to bring you beyond thought to pure observation. Impressions trigger these programs even after the energy is lost so the program continues. If the sustaining energy could persist, we could see beyond conditioned thought.  Since it does not, this leaves only these programs that could control anything – But what is the meaning of doing or thinking from such initiation? How does our body respond to such conditioned thought, and feeling? Impressions we received when not fully conscious is precisely how these programs form in us. Because if we are honest and examine our lives closely it appears our harmful patterns and habits are just those programs we now seem obliged to obey. Becoming conscious is the means of finally digesting these impressions and putting them in their place.

Part of what we have been examining shows we have trouble clearly defining the boundaries of our consciousness within what is called the waking state.  The lack of discernment we have between when we are fully aware and when we are only running programs from the energy of certain moments, shows clearly our energetic dependence upon stimuli from outside. If we could increase the energy of perception, to see ourselves at the moment of seeing the stimuli, this additional energy would enable us to be conscious long enough to catch the moment when we receive the impression. We may persist to observe how it is dissipated into mechanical patterns of thought and feeling. In this way we discern both the perception and the mechanical result it triggers, such that we are not identified with either point in the process. If we find a way to gain this energy, then we will also have the altitude to see how we are not our past, since most stimuli triggers associated memories that re-animate that past. Now when those impressions come up while we have enough energy to observe ourselves as a whole, the stimuli patterns that are triggered, enter into a whole body which experiences the present. Finally it dissolves to find its place in the larger whole and with it the programs tied to it. This frees us of the program or story associated to that impression. The whole key is to have enough perception energy to maintain a power of observation. This method reconciles the past and deepens our power of whole presence to absorb impressions old and new. Digesting these past impressions that are the basis of our programming, we are no longer a slave, we are then free to do as we wish.    

The past decades neuroscience has shown how far the illusion of will actually goes, and how many other illusions attend the ordinary state. Aside from the latest in science we have very little idea how it is composed or how conscious we are or for how long. We have no barometer for our own consciousness, even when by definition its own state should be self evident to itself. We might say the word itself is quite misleading or empty until a new way of experiencing can render itself self evident to its own power. As we will see, Recent pivotal breakthroughs in cell signaling and measurement have identified physiological conditions and markers corresponding to levels of consciousness. As we have seen if our consciousness is not fully aware changes the meaning of what we are actually doing. We will discuss how APOGEE Acu-Tone™ methodologically expresses a practical application of the new paradigm.   

Impressions and Conscious experience:

What immediately comes to mind when we hear the word impressions? It is likely to be thought of as a more archaic way of expressing perception. Though this use of the word appears to have fallen out of favor. When describing one’s role in an active sense we employ it more often in this way “the speaker’s presentation made a big impression upon me.” The word nonetheless retains a more descriptive way of describing  perception. Upon closer examination we see the  two more implicit meanings: a physical change on the one hand, and a change in the focus or content of our awareness. At the present time we reserve the word perception for stimuli, which now more readily expresses these qualities.

A moment’s notice shows how an impression is related to physical imprint or change of structure. By further reflection we can see that a pattern or code in energy was delivered. In any case we know that in the common use of impression something noteworthy or memorable is invariably preceded and comprised of stimuli.

Chladni Plates show this effect vividly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YedgubRZva8 A metal plate with fine sand resting on will form a distinct geometrical pattern corresponding to the frequency of sound impinging upon it. We can see directly the core pattern or essence of this vibration immediately revealed. For some this may conjure up notions of platonic forms, eternal static blueprints for every dynamic manifestation of a given eternal pattern. The most amorphous energy invisible to the eye suddenly reveals its essence. We might wonder how does this visual pattern illuminate the corresponding sound which has so affected us?

In a previous installment of APOGEE Acu-Tone™ Blog, we explored how the latest science explains the transformation experienced with APOGEE Acu-Tone™. In that summary we learned that Microtubules, components of the cytoskeleton are ideally suited for resonating sound. As if perfectly manufactured tuning forks of the cell, a novel expansive way to explain a mode of reception on the micro-level has opened up. We can begin to see how physiological processes of the cell, like the pattern in the sand, are in some sense also being transformed by the stimuli of experience. Perhaps the most essential meaning that stands out in the word impression is this notion of transformation. We say we are moved by music but we seldom realize how sound literally inscribes itself upon our being. How does the sound of outside become the sound of our conscious experience? How does any stimuli at all become the sound guiding the activity of our cells?

Solitons & Microtubules: Micro-Organs of sound and electricity.

The Soliton model in neuroscience is a recently developed model that attempts to explain how signals are conducted within neurons. It proposes that the signals travel along the cell's membrane in the form of certain kinds of sound (or density) pulses known as solitons. As such the model presents a direct challenge to the widely accepted Hodgkin–Huxley model which proposes that signals travel as action potentials: voltage-gated ion channels in the membrane open and allow ions to rush into the cell, thereby leading to the opening of other nearby ion channels and thus propagating the signal in an essentially electrical manner.

It is undeniable that an electrical signal can be observed when an action potential propagates along a neuron. The Soliton model explains this as follows: the traveling soliton locally changes density and thickness of the membrane, and since the membrane contains many charged and polar substances, this will result in an electrical effect, akin to piezoelectricity.

What this means is once we perceive, stimuli has been transduced into electrical signals free to travel along nerves. Immediately expressed in the form of sound waves, the information of the signal now takes upon a new meaning at a critical level of cell operation. As the signal from outside becomes a nerve signal, and this signal as we have learned is really accompanied by a complex orchestra of sound pulses, it becomes obvious to see why this mode of transmission has radical import on all cell functions, cell commands, and cell behavior. This is due to the fact that Cyto-skeletal elements interact extensively and intimately with cellular membranes. Soliton Sound pulses in the lipid membrane of cells propagate directly into the cytoskeleton body to alter the cells electrical, structural, metabolic state. We might say it determines the informational state of the cell itself, in that such a signaling method has the power to elicit and activate critical information from nuclear DNA. The capacity of the cell to maintain itself depends on communication from nuclear DNA using a very minute percentage of available material. This suggests a new and direct availability to the potentials for regenerative healing and conscious states alike. We need only perform a kind of "Chladni evalution of the informational patterns within sound beforehand, so as to engineer a far greater deliberate effect upon the cell.



"A Soliton is a density wave that neither changes shape or velocity as it travels, therefore it loses no energy or information."

In previous Blog: http://apogeelearning.blogspot.com/2012/04/finding-spirit-in-fabric-of-space-and.html We learn that Solitons are a special kind of sound pulse which does not lose energy or information in its transmission. In that installment we are reminded of Stuart Hameroff's lesson about the perfect efficiency Microtubules have for conveying signals, Presently we learn of how the cell Membrane and Cytoskeleton are intimately tied together, along with the nucleus by way of the cytoskeleton. The Nucleus is responsive directly to the signals it receives from the cytoskeleton. Mitosis, cell maintenance, cell structure and mode of metabolism all depend on the data of soliton signals.

Science is defining its most pivotal paradigm shift by discovering how cell activity upholds total body health and conscious state. This new paradigm has equal grasp of both. Such principles have empowered science to use stimuli in a deliberate manner for as a surgical information healing tool. We are now in a position to radically alter physiological and conscious levels. The ideal data transmitting properties of solitons and Microtubules both clearly emphasize how important it is to preserve a perfect signal impervious to all ambient noise. The significance of what we perceive with our senses always matters a great deal. And now it is apparent the significance cannot be overstated.  A conscious design informed by understanding these principles of sound transmission in the body, places us in a position to choose balance, addressing the cellular level of function composing our total state of being.  


On the level of experience whether we hear a sublime piece of music, or we experience a transition into a much more present, more aware state when engaging the APOGEE Acu-Tone™ process, we are now in a position to realize why such consciously arranged stimuli more than move us, they literally transform.

Now in a better position to understand how APOGEE Acu-Tone™ may be regarded as a set of conditions where the body can hear itself and the outside stimuli as one.  The reason the body chooses sound as its most fundamental means of transferring information is of enormous importance to both our sense of well being and health alike. Furthermore resonant mechanisms of the cell structures play a role in maintaining the vital information encoded. The fact that such structures appear throughout the cell shows how vitally important information contained in stimuli is to cell function at a fundamental level. This does not mean there are not ways for things to go wrong. When the whole state required for a full active presence is not integrated, a simple impression can actually wreak great havoc. We can see that as Ayurvedic Medicine has testified for millennia, disease really is a poverty of information. This also resonates with the Buddha’s, “Ignorance is the cause of suffering.” In any case when the flow of information is cut, or information itself imparts such a break in the flow, there is a corresponding break in intelligence and energy. A disharmonious impression is invariably the cause of general disharmony because it arrived at a moment the body was not integrated sufficiently to digest it. Put simply the whole was not yet established.  The result can be a kind of cascading error where some part of the whole takes up only a part of the information it needs as if it where a whole, dictating its new behavior. Then this process begins to function in its own way out of harmony with the other parts that have not received this message or have received it differently in their own way. Even each organ is an intelligence or mind, such that what the head says is taken differently when we are not present. Alienation is the cause of disease. It follows that restoring what the body already knows to all its parts, brings the whole into being so each part knows and follows the same whole. This whole is the throne of self, the intelligence that flows the ultimate medicine. The state of the body while receiving an impression is vital in determining whether we will grow from its nutrition or acquire another engram.

It is clear that runaway mitosis serves no function to the whole body. It begins as alienation in which it grows in the lack of information. Let there be light, and the way is restored. This also highlights how certain information in the form of our experiences may have initiated such conditions which block further cell communication. A division further divides. A cascading result defines a system of imbalances for which the self does not correspond.  Such a pattern in the cells can be identified by a reversed polarity around its cells. This informational enveloping is what leads to cell narcissism, refusing to hear and imposing its own disharmonious activity. Restoring health means restoring information, finding a way to open the door.

This conclusion alone already counts as a great and new revelation to conventional science. This list of implications offered by the new scientific understanding is of significant import to medicine, physical health and states of consciousness alike, to decisively create and evaluate any stimuli engineering cell function. For the first time a scientific paradigm can see directly what sounds adversely and constructively impact the life of all cells. We might say that our usual conscious state has up until now been merely a very abbreviated representation of all the cells in their harmonies and cacophonies. When a patient is under anesthetic during surgery, his consciousness is in effect switched off because without exception any molecule that lowers the melting point of the lipid membrane (gelling temperature) will not conduct solitons carrying the nerve signal. At the same time we can corroborate this fact with global bio markers such as EEG in the CNS. Anesthetic molecules dissolves in the membrane to dampen this form of sound in the body correspondingly prevents any degree of self awareness. Now let us imagine what happens to our cells when the stimuli is so well crafted our soul soars with emotional revelation, and the mind’s eye glimpses something of the eternal? How does the pattern of this composition raise our consciousness by affecting our cells?

The Principle of Anesthetics finally Unmasked:

The team at Copenhagen and other European groups had finally revealed the true mechanisms by which anesthetic compounds work. They invariably all change the melting point of the lipid membrane turning off the medium for Soliton sound pulses. Simultaneously the EEG corroborates the state of consciousness by showing a corresponding drop in the higher frequencies which apparently depend upon the connectivity of circuits throughout the body. Conversely this also means that by using the Soliton theory of nerve signal propagation, we can identify conditions (other than anesthetizing molecules) which also alter the membrane in a manner that will change conduction of sound in cells. Let us not forget that the pattern of the soliton itself is the key factor of not only altering the membrane, but altering how it conducts for subsequent signals of like kind.  The exciting conclusion is we are now free to use these principles to liberate a more comprehensive consciousness and a corresponding higher physiological capability to levels of a higher order. We may in particular see why APOGEE Acu-Tone™ is able to engender such a profound state of order, corresponding to a feeling of presence and self and clearing up a host of symptoms related to imbalance. It is not an overstatement to say that by such demonstrative methods we can solve outstanding philosophical challenges of great import as it seems now experimentally possible to finally clarify what presence and higher states of consciousness are in objective and scientific terms.

It is not just that our cell structures are designed to be attuned to sound, it is also the fact that information from stimuli have a way of reaching the cell to potentially fundamentally alter its operation and structure. The consciously articulated patterns found in specially engineered APOGEE Acu-Tone™ makes clear how these patterns are able to reach the fundamental processes of our being, by such flawless transmission. The attuned mechanisms within the cell are perfectly matched with the APOGEE Acu-Tone™ Paradigm which has long ago grasped the principles what only the most recent advances in cell research has finally caught up. 


Coming Home to Oneself:

APOGEE Acu-Tone™ seems to exploit several principles of the new science in a both farsighted and simple way: Pure and direct sound transmission to key points in the body using a resonant register to connect local sound patterns. Each site may be regarded as a collective of cell activity to compose a "Chladni register. This can then be superimposed to other key sites on the total body. Sound is then used to literally reconnect various centers of intelligence which where not as connected previously. This takes advantage of the fact that body is designed as a medium, such that all its parts can know the whole. The cell is simply a unit of that whole. It harbors such ideal tuning fork mechanisms within many of its key structures to carry this out. We can now re-construct the whole from its parts, by connecting key points to restore vital information, vitality itself. In effect a kind of acoustical feedback is then employed to create a growing picture of the whole. The total sound body is constructed step by step by the sequence of specially chosen sites where APOGEE Acu-Tone™ sounds/vibrations are applied. By observing this method we may understand how sound composes a macroscopic pattern of all cell assemblies as they are brought into connection through the APOGEE Acu-Tone™ process.
           
We see that in sounding, there is also a resounding. Full communication, both transmission and reception, flow between tuning fork and a tuning body. As a new connection is made, a new resonance constructs the ONE Sound of the entire body. A One verse, A UNI-Verse is the Throne of "I AM". Our new consciousness is simply coming home to the Self that always is. In aligning with the body, consciousness has an integrity  sustained by the direct impression of One-self.

APOGEE Acu-Tone™ is a decisively visionary somatic attunement method based on sound. Uniquely deciphering and connecting vital signaling processes in the body, APOGEE Acu-Tone™ reaches an unprecedented grasp over higher regulatory functions unlocking regenerative capabilities.  Our consultation was employed to analyze and counsel proper strategy for incorporation of this method.
