Episode 119. "It’s sort of like using frequency as a pharmacy.” ~Shannon Harris

It’s not a stretch to say that travel is a form of self-care. As this series transitions from unusual travel paths to uncommon self-care, it’s not a stretch to say that Shannon Harris is the perfect person to help bridge the gap. Shannon’s a musician, DJ, world traveler, educator, Qi Gong practitioner, and mastermind behind Audio Pharmacology™. 

What the...? You got it right if you’re thinking sound as medicine. 

By tapping into the science of sound, he harnesses frequencies associated with the body’s systems. Acupuncturists enlist needles to impact the body’s energy flow; Shannon works with music. The goal of each is the same: to positively impact organs, brainwaves, muscles, chakras, tissue, etc. 

To further his self-directed, sound-centric education, Shannon’s made travel a priority. Before the pandemic, he gigged around the globe, using his downtime to learn from local elders and spiritual leaders. 

These days, he’s sticking closer to home. While he waits for the world to reopen, Shannon’s putting the finishing touches on a project that’s near to my heart: an immersive experience tailored to the needs of Chicago public school students.
