Sound healing 101

The singing bowls speak the language of the brain, which is frequency. Busy brains put out busy BETA brain waves, and when brains get around these big circles of sound they tend to entrain or slow down to an alpha theta state and slow down. This is an amazing phenomenon because it can bring a person out of that busy chattering mind to point of peace. A sound bath helps you come to the present moment, and helps to center and ground into the body.

A sound bath is a sound journey that feels like a vibrational body massage for the mind, body & soul. Sound healing instruments such as crystal singing bowls, chimes, Himalayan signing bowls and other instrument are played creating musical overtones and vibration that bring the body to a state of relaxation.

Vibrations move through the cell to help rebalance energy and assist to activate the body's natural healing abilities. Simultaneously, the healing frequencies allow the mind to reach meditative alpha, theta and even delta brain waves states which are where deep healing can take place within the subconscious mind.

The sound of the singing bowls touches our innermost being, it brings the soul to vibrate. The sound releases tension mobilizes the self-healing and sets creative energies free .

With singing bowls, we are able to feel the vibrations flowing through our body and get into a deep, relaxed state, almost like a trance. You are actually being cleansed with the sound.

Each note you hear in a sound bath has a purpose. It’s more than just a string of beautiful sounds tied together — there is intention behind every note and every sequence.

These specially tuned frequencies of sound help to bring you into a very deep state of rest and self-healing, Each bowl is tuned to a different note. When these bowls resonate with your body, they can help to move and free up stuck energy through your body. This is a natural way to bring your body into a state of vibrational harmony. This is a time when you can return to a place of centeredness so you can let go of blockages and begin to experience deep rest and relaxation.
