    What's In It for Your Show and Your Audience? As the world's fastest harmonica teacher, David will teach your radio or tv host — on air — to play blues, rock, folk, or classical harmonica in minutes, while seamlessly weaving in brain function, humor, evolutionary psychology, great music, mindfulness, stress reduction, and lots of fun! A studio audience can join in if desired (David can supply harmonicas) and the home audience can join in using David's unique "Air Harmonica" method (not a joke — it works!). David is articulate, funny, and most importantly, authentic. He’s more interested by far in teaching what he knows to those who need it, than in being known for the sake of being wellknown. Though his message is deep and serious, the way he presents it is appealing and inviting to all. A presentation on Ray Suarez' Talk of the Nation radio show generated more feedback than any single show done up to that time! He's like no one you've ever seen. Meet David Harp. Applied cognitive scientist. Writer. Corporate speaker. Thanatologist. Mindfulness teacher. Spiritual seeker. Bluesman. And...the world's fastest harmonica instructor!* * (Holding the world's record for most people taught to play blues, rock, folk, and classical harmonica at one time — 2,569, although he "hopes to do a big group one day.") For more information on David’s work, please see the following page. And now...The Important Part: “The Harmonica Guru?” Who and What Is... As an applied cognitive scientist...David has developed unique and effective ways to teach people how to short-circuit unskillful anger, fear, and desire responses. As a thanatologist (one who works with dying and grieving clients)...he applies these same techniques to help those in the most difficult of circumstances. As a writer...he has written more than two dozen books, including his internationally-acclaimed “The Three Minute Meditator,” “Neural Path Therapy: How to Change Your Brain's Response to Anger, Fear, Pain, and Desire,” “Mindfulness to Go: How to Meditate While You're On the Move,” and “Three Minutes to Blues, Rock, Folk, and Country Harmonica.” Many of David’s books have sold between 100,000 and 300,000 copies. As a corporate speaker...he combines his two favorite disciplines, applied cognitive science and harmonica, into amazingly interactive presentations for clients ranging from Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream to the FBI, and including Kraft, Merck, Blue Cross and the Red Cross. Subject areas include Team-Building, Misery Loves Companies (dealing with negativity in the workplace), Peak Communication™, and Harmonica-Based Stress Reduction™. Group size ranges up to 4,000 participants, and he does ongoing pro bono training for the hospice community as well. Photos of some events are on the next page... As a mindfulness teacher...he again applies his two favorite disciplines to teach meditation skills in the most easily accessible, jargon-free, entertaining way possible, and is the creator of HarmonicaYoga™, as presented at North America's largest and best-known Yoga Center, the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. As a spiritual seeker...a "spiritual epiphany" on 1/30/85 led him to become a student of famed mindfulness teacher Dr. Jack Kornfield. Other teachers include Stephen and Ondrea Levine, Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, Charles Garfield, Big Walter Horton, and Paul Butterfield. And as a bluesman...David's harmonica speaks for itself. He is a pro-level player who loves to improvise with other players. David, Before and After...At Connecticut's Wesleyan University, David was an unfocused, macho, wannabe rock star, with a notable lack of skill on his only instrument, the harmonica. After a near-death out-of-body-experience during the summer of his sophomore year, David began to study thanatology, the psychology of dying and grieving. In decades of study and work since, he has learned to wear the many diverse hats mentioned

    David, Before and After...At Connecticut's Wesleyan University, David was an unfocused,
    macho, wannabe rock star, with a notable lack of skill on his only instrument, the harmonica. After a near-death out-of-body-experience during the summer of his sophomore year, David began to study thanatology, the psychology of dying and grieving. In decades of study and work since, he has learned to wear the many diverse hats mentioned on the previous page and described in more detail below...

    As an applied cognitive scientist...David has developed unique and effective ways to teach
    people how to short-circuit unskillful anger, fear, and desire responses.

    As a thanatologist (one who works with dying and grieving clients)...he applies these
    same techniques to help those in the most difficult of circumstances.

    As a writer...he has written more than two dozen books,


    including his internationally-acclaimed The Three Minute Meditator, Neural Path Therapy: How to Change Your Brain's Response to Anger, Fear, Pain, and Desire, Mindfulness to Go: How to Meditate While You're On the Move, and Three Minutes to Blues, Rock, Folk, and Country Harmonica. Many of Davids books have sold between 100,000 and 300,000 copies.

    As a corporate speaker...he combines his two favorite disciplines, applied cognitive science and harmonica, into amazingly interactive presentations for clients ranging from Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream to the FBI, and including Kraft, Merck, Blue Cross and the Red Cross. Subject areas include Team-Building, Misery Loves Companies (dealing with negativity in the workplace), Peak Communication, and Harmonica-Based Stress Reduction. Group size ranges up to 4,000 participants, and he does ongoing pro bono training for the hospice community as well. Photos of some events are on the next page... As a mindfulness teacher...he again applies his two favorite disciplines to teach meditation
    skills in the most easily accessible, jargon-free, entertaining way possible, and is the creator of HarmonicaYoga, as presented at North America's largest and best-known Yoga Center, the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health.

    As a spiritual seeker...a "spiritual epiphany" on 1/30/85 led


    him to become a student of famed mindfulness teacher Dr. Jack Kornfield. Other teachers include Stephen and Ondrea Levine, Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, Charles Garfield, Big Walter Horton, and Paul Butterfield.

    And as a bluesman...David's
    harmonica speaks for itself. He is a pro-level player who loves to improvise with other players.

    Whether Davids presentations involve dozens, hundreds, or thousands of participants... Whether in person or on TV or radio... He delivers unforgettable and crucial content in the most entertaining and interactive way possible.

    A Note About Guru-ism:
    David has tens of thousands of fans, students and clients, but no followers or disciples (nor does he want any). Amongst his writing projects, David is working on the upcoming "How to Become Your Own Guru, Without Having a Fool for a Disciple!" He points out that "The _____ Guru" has simply become a term for a person expert in one particular subject, so he doesn't object to the usage of the term...too much! And it is kinda catchy!
