"Sound Healing" is a term which broadly refers to the intentional employment of vibration to induce a desired change on mental/emotional/physical/spiritual levels.

The practice of using sound as an ally theoretically dates to our emergence as Humans as we currently present. Vocal expressions of emotion must surely be inherent to these, our human bodies. One could quite logically argue that since the dawn of time, creatures have used patterns of frequency to communicate. And audible sound is only one form of frequency communication. Light provides us with a view of the world, colors, patterns, depth. All frequencies, all flicker rates. This experience gives us the ability to envision, to our benefit or detriment. Tactile frequency are the frequencies of the brains of the body, the brains of Mind(head), Body(gut), and Spirit(chest).

Quite rightly one can state that the entire unified Subjective AND Objective universe is made up of a wide variety of frequencies creating the plethora of material entities, egregores, and measurable energies.

Personal wavelengths are that which maintain the illusions of separation.

We ARE “hear”(*here)…

The vibrations used for therapeutic sound sessions can be produced by any object, instrument, voice, and even by thought/intention. The instruments most commonly used for sound healing sessions are: gongs, bells, crystal singing bowls, metal singing bowls, chimes, cymbals, tuning forks, digital oscillations, MIDI, synthesizers, drums, stringed instruments, woodwinds, wind instruments, hand pans/hang drums, flutes, and voice.

The power of the human vocal cords to evoke emotional response, i.e. to assist in the movement of energy, cannot be understated. Non-linguistic vocal energetic communication is my understanding of “light language”, and the practice can be incredibly liberating and undeniable when truly experienced. We each have a voice and a story of emotional experiences.

what’s it look like?

There are two main theoretical approaches to healing with audible sound, in my understanding of the “medicine”.

The first and most common type uses acoustic instruments to relax one into the ‘Hypnagogic State’, the place between wakefulness and sleep, a state of half-sleep. In this place we are very receptive, your sub-conscious mind is free to surface and your conscious awareness is there to perceive, witness, and remember what it saw, even able to make changes to the sub-conscious at will, with practice.

The second most common approach to sound healing works with the theory of psychological and physiological entrainment, the theory that you can ‘tune’ your mind and body to a certain wavelength by extended exposure to that frequency. It is based on the factual reality of “entrainment” which is the natural tendency for things to eventually harmonize with each other with prolonged exposure. It is common for practitioners of this approach to use precision tuned tuning forks, digital binaural and monaural beats, and other precise frequencies to affect change in the mind/body/spirit complex of the recipient. This approach is less common due to the need for precision tuned instruments and a frequency seclusion chamber for the effectual application of frequency prescription.

Sessions in either type of ‘Sound Bath’ style can vary infinitely. Commonly there are practices of:

• direct contact with the instrument (tuning forks or singing bowls to electrodes)

• immersion in a room of sound, concerts and albums(live and pre-recorded)

• vocal creation of frequency (singing or toning)

• frequency of movements, as in dance, are a trance inducing tactile immersion/bath

• mindfulness allows your body/antenna to harmonize with the wavelengths of safety and acceptance.

• energy transfer/channeling/movement modalities are forms of frequency therapy

• speech and spell casting is a part of every day life

For those who have ears to hear, let them hear.
