Slack Key Music Heals

Seeds of Aloha Program

Traditional Hawaiian slack key music is a powerful vibration and rhythm of healing... soothing to emotional distresses and physical discomforts.
Neurologists have proven it can improve symptoms of many problems.  And experiential evidence of thousands of people tells us the same.

Seeds of Aloha is a program to get this music in the hands of the people it can help... Birth centers and new moms/babies... people undergoing treatment for cancer... people recovering from surgery... people in hospice care... people in long term care... people undergoing dialysis... parents and special needs children... animal rescue organizations... just to name a few!

Soothing Power of Slack Key
When the nurses discovered the music helping other patients and symptoms such as walking/movement rhythm, frustration, anxiety, and anger, we again teamed up to help out.
