Healing Vibrations is a media company focused on health and wellness through stress reduction and self-reflection. We utilize the physical and psychological effects of light, color, sound and vibration to slow the pulse, release muscular tension, and create a clear, focused state of mind.
Located in the great Pacific Northwest, Healing Vibrations is a collaboration between lifelong friends Drew Griffin and Travis Schumacher who in late 2018, decided to combine their unique skill sets to change the world. More about Drew and Travis below.
Travis Schumacher
Sound Healer | Co-founder
In his own words:
"At 22 years old, I had already lost 3 years of my life to heroin.
I would have never imagined myself as an addict. I felt unworthy. Unworthy of love, unworthy of joy, unworthy of life. At that point, all that I wanted was to leave this world.
At the peak of my addiction, I suffered my first, true heartbreak. I felt betrayed. I felt like my world was crumbling around me. I realized I needed to make a change. I was terrified.
The indescribable pain of withdrawals laced with heartbreak was almost too much to take. For days, all I was thinking was that this is not who I am or who I want to be. I had to stick it out. I had to get clean.
Coming out of addiction, I was faced with the hard reality that I had lost my way in life. I’d wasted years and had nothing to show for it. I didn’t know where I was going in life or if I had any purpose. That’s when I found meditation. I went on a quest for knowledge. Chants, mantras, reiki, sound healing, etc… All leading up to a profound out-of-body experience that changed the course of my life forever.
In that experience, learned that I was eternal, I was complete, and I was connected to all things. After going through my addiction and breakup, I didn’t know if I could ever feel whole again but this experience showed me that I could if I was willing to seek the truth.
During this phase of my life, I developed a newfound desire to help others. I became a certified massage therapist and sought further learning in Thailand. There, I spent 3 months learning about meditation practices and sound healing. I also observed that my life had meaning and purpose; to heal others from their traumas as I had now been healed.
Since then, I have dedicated my life to helping others find the light within. I now live my life promoting and performing sound bath in hopes of reaching those who feel lost or unworthy; striving to guide them to the path of hope and healing."
Drew Griffin
Producer | Co-Founder
In his own words:
"Born and raised in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, I moved to L.A. at 21 to study film production at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts.
Graduating with honors from USC, I went on to work for Academy Award winners Jared Leto, Tom Cross, and Hughes Winborne, specializing in post-production.
In 2014, family tragedy struck. I made the decision to move back to Seattle to be close to loved ones. Soon after, I landed a role at Amazon Prime Video where I worked as a Program Manager. I can't stress enough the value of my time at Amazon and the relationships I made there.
After 5 years at Amazon, I found myself missing the hands-on aspects of the filmmaking world, and though it didn't seem like the wisest decision, I followed my heart, leaving my job to start my own production company.
I believe it was fate that reunited me with my childhood best-friend and next-door-neighbor, Travis Schumacher. Travis was my closest friend for most of my life and we bonded once again over his interest in sound bath.
I immediately knew there was a place for this on YouTube and asked if he would be interested in letting me record a performance. Before long, Healing Vibrations took on a life of its own and changed both our lives forever."
