inTime
The brain is musical; neuroscience has proven through functional brain imaging that music engages more brain areas than anything else, and rhythm is the most important, fundamental aspect of music.
Your brain health and brain-body connection depend on rhythm.
inTime provides a personalised programme of listening training and fun movement activities, using body, drum and voice to help you keep your beat, and flow with the rhythms of daily life. At Learning Solutions we will advise and work with you on the range of movements to get the ideal results.
inTime provides progressive rhythm-based training across four frequency zones, stimulating different brain areas and their related functions during the course of your personalised listening schedule.
Children, adolescents, and adults can engage with the music of inTime to help stimulate rhythm awareness, focus, timing, and adaptive responses to stress, all of which support optimal functioning and brain health as well as the brain-body connection.
inTime features original pieces by musician and composer Nacho Arimany, whose distinctive blending of world music styles includes diverse percussion, string, and wind instrumentation. Orchestrated percussive rhythms and specific sound frequencies serve as the basis for a rich melodic and harmonic structure. High-definition sound recordings made in a carefully arranged acoustic environment have captured the sound and spirit of over 100 instruments including:
-
Membranous drums from West Africa and the Middle East
-
Clay drums from Nigeria, South India, and South America
-
Seed instruments from Colombia and Brazil

"To me, inTime is more than a rhythm-based music listening programme. I have practiced yoga for 12 years. Yoga teaches its students to find inner quiet or peace, even in a crowded noisy room the goal is to be able to shut out all the noise and distraction and meditate. Listening to inTime is very similar to this, all the stress and distraction and chaos in life is like the crowded, noisy room. During and after using this programme the situations that came up in life that were big stressors I was and am able to handle in a calmer and clear way. I feel centered and motivated, more able to see the bigger picture in the projects that I am working on, not only in my job but in my life as well. The music is so energetic and fun, it’s hard not to move with the beat. The best way to describe this program for me is a quote by Berthold Auerbach ‘Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."

The programme is available on a pre-loaded iPod Touch with or without the specialist drum.
