Description
Summary:M.Tech. Drama. Tshwane University of Technology === When the healthy resonant frequency is out of balance, physical and emotional health is affected. The imbalance can be restored by the use of sound waves to once again create a healthy balance. Taking into account that the actor-in-training needs to focus on several elements on a physical, mental and emotional level all at once, it can be argued that s/he needs to be centred and keep all physical, mental and emotional aspects in balance. Therefore, well-being is certainly needed for optimal functioning of the actor and this is often archived through relaxation. This study hypothesizes that Sound Therapy will be beneficial as means of achieving a sense of well-being in the actor.
