Sound is an emanation of any tone, frequency or vibration. Quantum physicists tell us that in order for anything to exist it has to be in motion, to vibrate. Body exists too because every atom, cell in our bodies vibrate. Life is vibration.

In today’s world, sound is overwhelming and can affect us. High levels of unpleasant sounds can bring a variety of physical or emotional disease and even cause death.

Sound Healing is a modality that shows us how to work with all the sounds in our lives. It helps counteracts the effects of noise pollution by restoring the natural harmonies in our bodies. For thousands of years, sound has been used in all cultures as a therapy to understand its profound effects on our well-being. Our western medicine is slowly rediscovering it today. Sound therapy is now used in the treatment of Alzheimer, cancer, insomnia, and even to dissolve kidney stones.

Crystal Singing Bowls

In my sound healing sessions, I mainly use crystal bowls. They are modelled after the Tibetan singing bowls and made of pure crystal quartz and some are fused with precious minerals and metals. The tones they carry are very powerful. When the bowls are played, they produce sound waves frequency that are consciousness altering equivalent to alpha waves, which are associated to a state of deep relaxation and dreaming.

The sound harmonics created by the bowls have the therapeutic effect of a sound massage, and help to release tensions and stress held in the physical body as well as calming the mind and centering one’s focus. Their soothing tones connect us to our vital life force.

Quartz is a vibrational transmitter, it is used as a transmitter in almost all of our technologies. It carries the vibrational consciousness of the metal or the mineral or the crystal into our cellular knowing. We’re water. We are a perfect receptor for this kind of information.

Mantra Chanting

Sound therapy especially chanting can stabilise the heart rate, reduce blood pressure, improve circulation, produce endorphins (the body’s natural painkillers), nourish DNA and generate proteins in the body.

Vocal chanting is particularly effective because of the nerves in the soft and hard palate that the tongue hits when we chant. The effects are similar to the effect you would have with acupuncture or acupressure in the hands and the foot through massage. The palate has eighty-two reflex points that stimulate the meridians and awaken parts of the brain, thus bringing energy to all the body.

Sanskrit Mantra Chanting is especially efficient because it contains rich phonetics and the variety of tongue placement stimulates a variety of energy frequencies.

These asanas of the tongue also stimulate the pituitary gland located just millimeters from the roof of the palate. This gland governs many aspects of our immunity and others aspects of our life.

Chanting also helps release emotional toxicity lodged in the intestines, which is why people enjoy it so much.

Chanting is a sort of divine therapy, a means of cleansing the soul.
