A warm welcome to this circle where it's all about listening, outside and inside! Please introduce yourself and your business and share your genius profile. Also share with us what music means to you and what one of your most intense musical experiences was. This is also a place to share inspirational insights, quotes, ideas, stories and more that help us to reconnect with who we truely are - since after all we're all human with endless potential. So let's listen to ourselves and each other and unleash our genius super powers and join our forces to make this world a better place.


Thank you for the invite Stefan, and there are some really interesting insights already in this circle. I'm a blaze supporter, and like many in the Genius community listening (to others) is a key part of my work as a coach. I do think though that listening to ourselves is something we don't do often enough, we get busy, go into autopilot and forget to take out that important reflection time. Music for me can be a great mood changer, deliberately or otherwise, which probably explains why I appreciate so many film soundtracks and opera pieces. I'd be interested to know if anybody else gets 'caught out' sometimes by a welling of emotion when they hear - or sing - a piece of music....

Thank you for the invite Stefan! Over the years I have learned to listen to my intuition and the needs of my body and it never fails to amaze me what infinite wisdom we all have within if we choose to listen. In terms of music, I love live performance especially vocals, acoustic guitar and drums.

Sound doesn't only get in extremely fast. It also gets routed quickly to the precortical areas. Those parts of the brain deal with very basic functions and are not part of the wiring for conscious thinking. This is where our emotions are generated.
So no sense is able to trigger emotions as fast as our hearing!
Think about the consequences of this for your daily life and feel free to share your thoughts.

Thanks for the invite! Listening is a great part of my life - I do confess than when the external noise is not allowing my system to sleep, I do use headphones with deep sleep music - and I realize it could be addictive. But when my upstairs neighbor is coming back to his night at 5am and runs loud his music... I feel really .... irritated! Aside that, I love also how the words and vocabulary plays a major role in the music world. Like being in tune with someone and knowing their own preference when they use visual, sound or sensory words (I see that... I hear that... I feel, it sounds great. All the vocabulary of the music, the instruments... I'm in tune with that! You touch a sensible chord! Let me vent / wind that out! And last Saturday I had the blessing, in the forest, to hear far away someone playing Horn, it was a delight!
So definitely this group is dear to my heart.

Thanks for the invite Stefan :) I'm a Blaze-Supporter. We run a Film Production House called 'The Fictionary' as a Family business and personally, I'm a Level 1 City Host for Bangalore and a Community support on the GeniusU Platform. I am also a Personal Development coach and a Flow Consultant.

As sound gets in extremely fast it "sets the stage" for all other input.
What are your thoughts about that? Have you already consciously experienced how your sensory perception had been influenced by what you were hearing?


Thanks for the invite to the group. I am a STAR have run a training business for over 15 years, so listening (with more than just ears) and having people listen is key to the impact of our programs. Music means joy!! Three most intense musical experiences 1. I was a chauffer to U2 when they toured in SA many years ago and had a back stage pass. Wow. thrilling. 2. Went on a sound journey where people with different instruments took us a journey of audio magic. 3. being deep in the African Bush, and listening to the silence and then having the privilege of lions, hyenas, leopards and different birds calling in intervals.
Thank you for the invite. As someone with synesthesia music is always an intense experience - either in a 'good' way or otherwise. Sometimes I can't tell if the music is inside me of outside... I also see music visually in colour and movement which is incredible and sometimes I can get lost listening to the same song over and over again because of the visuals and the feelings it invokes. I sometimes create digital art interpretations of music.
