In this episode, Pete is joined by a veteran musician whose band Rusted Root toured the World selling over 3 million records and whose music can be heard on the soundtrack of popular movies and TV commercials around the world… Jim Donovan.
Now a College Professor, Drumming Workshop Facilitator, Sound Healer and Author of the book ‘Saved by Sound’ we explore the part music plays in healing and in creative stimulation, growth and transformation and imagine the impact on the world where kids are encouraged to practice the use of sound to create a balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

- How being a rockstar resulted in him becoming a College Professor
- The chemical reaction that occurs when we engage in music and how it benefits us
- The Vagus Nerve, why it’s so important and how we can use it to heal and transform
