Our Philosophy
We believe the main purpose of music is assist the spiritual evolution of the individual.
Our approach is based on the life-work and philosophy of John Diamond M.D. Dr. Diamond, a pioneer in holistic medicine and best-selling author of more than twenty books, is the world’s leading authority in using as a health modality. All our staff have been privileged to study with Dr. Diamond for many years and we are one of the very few institutions in the world authorized to teach his ground-breaking work.
So how does music help people? It is all to do with the connection between music and Life Energy. Life Energy is the basic psycho-spiritual force determining our well-being, the Western equivalent of chi in Chinese medicine. Put simply, music has tremendous potential to raise the Life Energy, as much or even more than any other modality.
To do this it needs to be done in the right way and that is precisely what we teach at CPD Music – not just how to play your instrument from a technical viewpoint but how to use it to maximize your Life Energy and thereby optimize your health! The good news is that anyone can do this. You don’t need to be musically gifted in a regular sense (though of course you can be). For this reason, our approach is suitable for a wide range of people – everyone from beginners to professionals, from young children to seniors, from university professors to those with severe mental and physical impairments. With our approach, music has the ability to help them all.
