Gary Malkin is a seven time Emmy and ASCAP award-winning composer, producer and recording artist dedicated to making a difference in the world by creating music-driven media and experiences that inspire the heart and catalyze individual and societal healing. He is a dynamic "keynote performer", passionately speaking and performing on the vital role music and the media can serve as a messenger of an inclusive spirituality throughout our culture's institutions. Gary is the co-creator of the internationally acclaimed book and CD set, Graceful Passages, produced by his life-enhancing media production company, Wisdom of the World, which creates innovative ways to experience spoken messages from the world's known and unknown visionaries so that we might live our lives with more mindfulness and compassion. He is the founder, along with co-author Michael Stillwater, of a non-profit organization, Companion Arts, dedicated to integrating the values of a broad spirituality into our health care systems through provider-focused educational programs and resources called Care for the Journey.

Gary is also proud to have served as the Artistic Director for the Quest for Global Healing Conferences, featuring Archbishop Desmond Tutu and other Nobel Laureates, in Bali, Indonesia. He was also asked to serve as Artistic Director for the Noetic Sciences International Conference on Health and Consciousness, weaving arts and performances throughout. Gary was the producer of a 2006 Middle Eastern Peace Concert, Music Heals, in San Francisco's Grace Cathedral to a capacity audience, peacefully bringing together musicians representing Muslim, Christian and Jewish religions from all over the embattled region. Throughout his thirty-year career, he has consistently worked on socially responsible media projects. He just produced the music for the groundbreaking Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium's media, created by Lynne and Bill Twist's Pachamama Alliance, dedicated to empower people to take greater responsibility for the planet's ecological and spiritual well-being. In May of 2008, he was asked by TED Curator, Chris Anderson, to create the theme for the international media phenomenon, Pangea Day. More recently, he performed on the stage of the Great Hall of China as the only American in an intercultural, nationally televised program that aired during the Olympics, (in China) featuring the concept of music as a healing force.

He and his team are currently working towards the next phase for Wisdom of the World, which is reinventing the way in which digital media can serve as a delivery system for inspiring messages from the world's spiritual and humanitarian leaders, awakened with the power of music and images. Through his performances, presentations and recordings, he is committed to promoting a greater understanding of the power of music and the media arts as a potential source of integration for body, mind, spirit and heart.

Care for the Journey

Care for the Journey, created by Wisdom of the World, is a platform for innovations which support sustainability in healthcare. Developed as an audio-based educational resource for professionals currently in practice, it is also applicable for medical nursing schools.

Those who serve in the multi-faceted world of healthcare are challenged in ways unimaginable to anyone outside this arena. Entrusted by society with the task of mending the body and mind, often under great duress, a practitioner is asked to provide hope and encouragement in the face of illness and the inevitable passage of death. In order to cope with a rising stream of patients in a shrinking window of time, he or she may become increasingly more detached, a seemingly necessary solution for sanity and survival.

Care for the Journey is a beautiful collage of spoken messages from leaders in compassionate care supported by original scored music by Gary Malkin. It is used by health professionals and healing practitioners as a continuing education tool and for inspirational self-renewal.

Featuring Gary Malkin, Michael Stillwater, Rachel Naomi Remen, MD, Christina Puchalski, MD, Jean Watson, RN, PhD, Angeles Arrien, PhD,Joan Borysenko, PhD, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Tom Lant, PhD, RN, Naomi Judd, RN, Jeremy Geffen, RN, Christine Northrop, MD, Ira Byock, MD, Angeles Arrien, PhD, and Rachel Naomi Remen, PhD. and other leading experts in medicine, spirituality and psychology.
