Jo Miller of Solasta Sounds • Buddy's Buddies #005
GREETINGS FROM MARGATE!
Welcome to episode 5 of Buddy’s Buddies!
Thanks for joining me again - truly lovely to see you. Merry Friday to you all!
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s a pleasure to introduce a glorious chat with the multi-talented soundwave wrangler and good vibes initiator JO MILLER of SOLASTA SOUNDS! I’ve been a firm fan ever since my first sound bath a good couple of years ago, when I didn’t even know what I was getting into by attending a sound bath - to say I was extremely pleasantly surprised is a powerful understatement… I’ve been involved in sound activities for a few decades now and this was definitely among my favourite. But that’s not where Jo’s expertise start and finish by any means!
I’d been wanting to talk to Jo for ages, especially as she’s so heavily involved in sounds and the more restorative aspects of it. I’m intimately familiar with bobbing my head and altering my pace as a pedestrian when listening to various types of music (or indeed slowing down to halt on the more ambient stuff), but I don’t think I’d ever really stopped to think about what was happening from the neo-cortex to the limbic system to the brain stem and onward… Well, we proper got into it here and it was totally fascinating - so much so that I must have dropped several questions in the smash-grab of my mind when I was reaching quickly for what to ask next…! There’s so much involved, and Jo breaks down everything from origins, her history with sound, vibrations and the actual physical effects of sound and how we can incorporate it in a mindful sense, using our bodies to navigate trauma, animals and how they handle trauma, and - ahh, just too much to mention here.
You’ll get a real charge off this one, no doubt about it. So much goodness from an awesome sound-loving and living individual. Get to know Jo Miller and acquaint yourselves with what she does! ENJOY!
