Healing Vibrations

Healing Vibrations is a media company focused on health and wellness through stress reduction and self-reflection. Based in the Pacific Northwest, it uses the physical and psychological effects of light, color, sound and vibration to slow the pulse, release muscular tension and create a clear, focused state of mind.

It is a collaboration between lifelong friends Travis Schumacher, a sound healer, and Drew Griffin, a producer. In late 2018 they decided to combine their skills. Drew, a filmmaker who studied at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts, saw a place for sound bath on YouTube and asked to record Travis performing. Healing Vibrations soon took on a life of its own.

Travis came to sound through a difficult past. He has said that after years of addiction he found meditation, then explored chanting, mantras, reiki and sound healing. He describes receiving a singing bowl as a gift and says that playing it over time became part of his purpose. On his YouTube channel he describes his sound bath videos as a beacon of hope for people struggling physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually.

Today Travis focuses on crystal singing bowls. He teaches a method he calls Frequency Flow, which covers moving from bowl to bowl so the sounds blend into harmony. He writes about sound healing, including the idea that the link between a note and a chakra is built through a person's own awareness and intent.
