“Something had changed”
The testimony of a mother, about her son
Excerpt from the chapter “Our Experience” of the book TOMATIS — Une expérience à partager (TOMATIS — An Experience to Share, by Juan Antonio Timor Pineda and Chaime Marcuello Servós), reproduced by permission of the authors.
In the autumn of 2000, a friend of the authors, herself a teacher, spoke to them of her son’s difficulties at school. Exhausted, she had ended up trying the Tomatis listening sessions. And something, she recounts, had changed: concentration was returning, school results were improving. The authors report that her story moved them, at a moment when their own relationship to the method was being transformed in depth — it was one of the conversations that opened, for them, a new door.
