When we listen to songs that move us, they do in fact heal us. The various consciousness modules we have within us—the infant, the four-year-old, the mother, and all the others—are themselves psychological expressions—specific behavioral aspects of self-organization—that possess oscillation, just as our organs, our hearts, our bodies do. Damage to, that is, disharmony in, any of those modules is carried within its oscillating field. As the poet Novalis once put it, “Every disease is a musical problem.”
