What is Sound Healing?
Sound Healing is an energy medicine, non invasive and works on all levels of being by re-adjusting and shifting the imbalances held within the mind-body-spirit.
Sound has been used as a powerful healing tool for thousands of years. In ancient traditions, sound was used to connect with the Spirit in order to bring healing back within the body.
"Everything is Energy"
You might have heard these words quite a lot of you have interest for complementary medicine of for the modern quantum physics.
If you were to look at your body through a microscope, what you see would be tiny strings (or particles) vibrating in emptiness, far from looking at a solid object.
Sound Healing works with this principle, it is based on the fact that everything in the universe has a vibration, therefore a frequency.
Everything is Sound
Your entire being is an orchestra; each of your atoms, molecules, organs, thoughts, emotions... contains a resonant frequency of its own, which will vary in each individual.
When experiencing stress or trauma on any level of being (physical, emotional, mental, energetic), a denser energy starts to reduce or stops the free flow of your healthy resonant vibration. Over time, the physical body (which is the densest energy) manifests these imbalances under the form of illness, weakness or dis-ease.
By sending high and low frequencies through sound waves that link with your energy system, sound unravels the denser energy slowing down your healthy vibrational state, therefore acts on the very source of your constitution. This is why many people feel much lighter after a session, as their energy move faster, free from blockages.
How does it work?
It is familiar for each of us to feel sometimes "out of tune", or not 'resonating' with the events in our life.Through the use of different ancient and modern instruments such as Himalayan bowls, Crystal bowls, voice toning and overtoning, silence and grounding tones, we will work on the blockages that sound reveals, in order to re-tune the healthy resonant frequencies within your being.
Those sound waves will then establish a new pathway within your different levels of being, reconnecting your Self with well-being and inner health.
Sound Healing works with the Chakra system, the Nadis and the Auric field, in order to access the energetic state of the system.
Chakras are wheels (from its Sanskrit meaning) or vortices of energy, acting as energy receivers, generators and transformers. They are centres of consciousness located at specific places in the body, linking with the physical body and its organs, nervous plexuses and endocrine system. An imbalance in the body will be reflected in the correspondent Chakra, and vice versa.
The Nadis are energy channels and perform the same function as meridians, which is to channel Prana (Sanskrit for "breath", the life force) throughout the body and to communicate energy between the Chakras.
There are three main Nadis within us:
- Sushumna connects the Root Chakra to the Crown Chakra. It manifests Spirit and is a vertical column within which the Chakras are located.
- Pingala meaning 'tawny' in Sanskrit, manifests Body and is associated with the masculine and solar energy.
- Ida meaning 'comfort' in Sanskrit, manifests Mind and is associated with the feminine and lunar energy.
The Auric field, or otherwise known as 'Aura' is made up of several interconnecting layers of energy that are beyond the physical body but still penetrating it.
Energy and information are constantly exchanging between the Chakras and the Aura, which will be accessible through sound.
Sound Healing is about re-tuning and rebalancing the imbalances found in the Chakras, Nadis and/or Auric field, lightening the dense energy hindering your cells from playing and singing in unison, therefore creating harmony and allowing the body to find its own optimum vibration.
The principles of 'sympathetic resonance' and 'entrainement' are key elements during a session; two ways of bringing the body back into balance, along with the use of different musical intervals.
By allowing yourself to "bathe" into the sounds, your brainwave frequencies will gradually slow down, until to reach a deep state of relaxation and your maximum potential of healing frequency, which happens around 7-8 Hz.
Sound Healing is a holistic medicine, looking at all aspects of your life, and revealing your own healing process.
If you are looking for a powerful yet gentle tool to help your health on a cellular level, sound is unparalleled and will allow you to restore harmony within your being.
