The healing properties of nature, music and laughter are well noted by the scientific and holistic communities, said Dr. Steve Koc, creator of Gnomies World.
A Japanese study found that those who practiced shinrin-yoku (walking and staying in forests) experienced greater stress reduction. Dr. Masura Emoto, author of Messages from Water, gained worldwide acclaim for his research in vibrational sound, and Dr. Mitchell Gaynor documents his findings in The Healing Power of Sound. The acclaimed Norman Cousins researched the healing power of laugher in his book The Anatomy of an Illness, to name a few.
Koc became so intrigued by the idea of using these three elements—nature, music and laughter—for stress relief, he created Gnomies World, an award-winning animated children's movie designed to help kids relax.
The film follows the adventures of the Gnomies, a merry band of characters who live deep in the woods, go on peaceful adventures in nature, and bring laughter to all.
“On the one hand, Gnomies World is light and frivolous,” said Koc. “Yet there is an underlying science in the making of this movie that is designed for deep healing. As one gets immersed into the world of the Gnomies, the brain and body are affected in uplifting and healing ways.”
“In my four decades of clinical practice, I’ve always sought out natural ways to assist the healing process. I've found very good results using breathing exercises, along with visual images that create a state of inner peace, and sound healing,” Koc said.
“Gnomies World uses all of these modalities in addition to the laughter response, to create a state of relaxation in the body.” Koc said.
