Sound Healing in the Heart of the City & Sound Healing Tools for a Peaceful Heart

Sound Healing Ceremony In the Heart of the City & 2 DIY Sound Healing Tools For A Peaceful Heart In the 20th Century Gong Baths may become more popular in the US than the Baths of Ancient Rome. What’s a Gong Bath, or Sound Healing Ceremony? Participants each lie down on a mat or blanket while sound healing practitioners play gongs, singing bowls and other instruments. People experience relief from stress and pain, energy balancing, clarity of mind, spontaneous healing and a peaceful meditative state.Sound has been part of human culture, healing and ritual since the beginning of Time. Or at least since the beginning of human culture. “If we accept that sound is vibration and we know that vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies. One reason sound heals on a physical level is because it so deeply touches and transforms us on the emotional and spiritual planes. Sound can redress imbalances on every level of physiologic functioning and can play a positive role in the treatment of virtually any medical disorder.” ~ Dr. Mitchell Gaynor, director of Medical Oncology and Integrative Medicine at the Cornell Cancer Prevention Center in New York CityEach cell and organ in our body vibrates, and the pattern of vibration makes a song that can change moment to moment. When an organ experiences imbalance, that imbalance shows up in it’s vibration, or song. Through sound healing the vibrational frequencies, or songs of the body can be restored to their balanced and optimal state.Sound healing has helped me enter a state of deep awareness and mystery where anything is possible. Shamanic sound healing has helped me call myself home and retrieve lost parts of myself. It has called out to my deep cellular memory and ancient wisdom, waking up and uncovering parts of me that had been buried and long to shine. From a place beyond the veil my sisters have sung the song of my soul to me and helped me remember the essence of what I am, the mystery from which I come, and my purpose here on Earth.Want to experience the magic and deep peace of sound healing first hand?
