Summary
This book is a memoir of the author’s search for the music of life in everything - our bodies, the biosphere, and the cosmos. It offers an expansive, unique way of perceiving vibration and sound through stories and discoveries. Susan Alexjander encourages us to experience the world through a musical consciousness. As we do, “Different topics arrive: our biosphere, science, mystical teachings, symbols, and even history.” It is a rich, multidimensional path leading deeper into the mysteries of our vibrating world. “If resonance is the language of the universe, then nothing, no one is left out. It is one grand song, and each voice has a part in it.”

Critics Review
“Susan Alexjander is a gem. Her fascinating stories are peppered with
inspiring and innovative musical morsels. It was her expansive, unique
way of perceiving vibration that first drew me to her as a teacher and
mentor, and finally a friend.” -Joshua Leeds, author of THE POWER OF SOUND
and SOUND & BREATH FOR AUTONOMIC BALANCE
“This book has taught me that the most important part of transcending
oneself and being truly authentic is going beyond mental deliberation
and following sights, sounds and people that truly resonate within yourself;
experiences that make you ring like a bell. You have shown me that
a scary leap of faith out of comfort is usually required but that is how
new eras are created! When I was reading your book, I truly felt like I
was ringing like a bell bright with joy.” -JOHN DUFEK
26-year-old musician, mathematician, and creative
”…the summaries of the principles you have distilled… ground me yet
invite me to the edge, again and again. I feel the truth of these things,
especially in nature’s resonances, in music. Thank you for asking the
questions… and showing how this, through your one most immense life,
must be so… a magical journey, through your unrelenting curiosity and
artistry. -PAULA WATKINS
