If you've googled Sound Healing you're sure to have come across these two gifted artists. In front of the camera is sound healer Travis Schumacher and behind the camera is filmic wizard Drew Griffin. The two of them, childhood friends, took different paths until a fateful meeting led to the creation of Healing Vibrations, Sleep Vibrations and their newest channel Chakra Vibrations. I was honored that when I reached out to Travis it turns out he had been listening to my music on Pandora for years. So it too felt like a fateful meeting! Since then we've become friends and I was over joyed to have him to agree to be on Musitations™. We had a great far-ranging conversation and I'm sure we will be having many more. I hope you enjoy our soulversation as much as we did!

A bit more about Travis here:

In his own words:

"At 22 years old, I had already lost 3 years of my life to heroin. I would have never imagined myself as an addict. I felt unworthy. Unworthy of love, unworthy of joy, unworthy of life. At that point, all that I wanted was to leave this world.

At the peak of my addiction, I suffered my first, true heartbreak. I felt betrayed. I felt like my world was crumbling around me. I realized I needed to make a change. I was terrified. The indescribable pain of withdrawals laced with heartbreak was almost too much to take. For days, all I was thinking was that this is not who I am or who I want to be. I had to stick it out. I had to get clean.

Coming out of addiction, I was faced with the hard reality that I had lost my way in life. I’d wasted years and had nothing to show for it. I didn’t know where I was going in life or if I had any purpose. That’s when I found meditation. I went on a quest for knowledge. Chants, mantras, reiki, sound healing, etc… All leading up to a profound out-of-body experience that changed the course of my life forever.

In that experience, learned that I was eternal, I was complete, and I was connected to all things. After going through my addiction and breakup, I didn’t know if I could ever feel whole again but this experience showed me that I could if I was willing to seek the truth. During this phase of my life, I developed a newfound desire to help others. I became a certified massage therapist and sought further learning in Thailand. There, I spent 3 months learning about meditation practices and sound healing. I also observed that my life had meaning and purpose; to heal others from their traumas as I had now been healed.

Since then, I have dedicated my life to helping others find the light within. I now live my life promoting and performing sound bath in hopes of reaching those who feel lost or unworthy; striving to guide them to the path of hope and healing."
