Amrita Cottrell is the founding director of The Healing Music Organization. Her work in sound and healing music came from her own miraculous recovery from breast cancer in 1999, when she was able to eradicate two tumors in as little as six weeks with the sound of her own voice. Amrita has a degree in Health Arts and Sciences and is the author of the four-volume Encyclopedia and Dictionary of Sound. In addition to being an inspiring teacher, Amrita is an accomplished musician and singer. Her music artfully blends her playing of crystal singing bowls with her high, clear singing. She has shared her healing story and her work with the crystal bowls in the New York Times, at the United Nations, Southwest Airlines Inflight Magazine, and on CBS News.

"They produce a sound
and effect that is out of
this world. In all my
work with acoustic and
electronic instruments,
including Japanese and
Tibetan bowls, these
quartz bowls represent
a unique and extra-
ordinary resource.

Many individuals on the
Path will be interested in
adding these to their
collection of meditation
enhancers."

                —Steven Halpern
