I found this recently and wanted to share it…

“On a biological level, the encounter between two human beings is the resonance between two brains. The Relational Neurobiologists call this resonance ‘the Brain Bridge’. The brain bridge is two Limbic Systems that resonate together.

These Neurobiologists have found that when there is this resonance between two brains our central nervous system begins to calm down. They have discovered that our brain is the only organ in our body that does not regulate from within. It regulates from the outside though another brain. We need each other for self-regulation.”

Isn’t this wonderful to realize that it is in our nature to connect and how it is for our own health as well as the health of those around us that we take the time to really be with and connect with others. I think singing from the heart creates resonance too.. singing and playing and actively listening. The Sufi believe ( as do I) that the listener is as much part of the performance as the person on the stage. It is a communication.
