Why I’m grateful for my hearing loss: what I’ve learned about sound and wellness
This year, 2021, transformed me in ways I didn’t imagine possible. For one, I’m much more aware of how sound plays a significant role in my happiness. My hearing loss used to be a point of contention in my life, but now I see (once again) that my hearing ability has been a blessing beyond measure.
Thinking about hearing loss? You’re not alone.
Akoio encourages everyone to make hearing health a priority. Delaying diagnosis and treatment for hearing loss can affect a person both mentally and physically.
