Everything is in a constant state of vibration and therefore creates sound, including our bodies. Modern physics has verified that we are all vibrating atomic and sub-atomic particles; in a constant state of fluidity and flow. Everything in this universe has a resonant frequency and if our bodies are vibrating at their normal healthy frequency, we call this state health. If parts of our bodies begin to vibrate at a frequency that is not harmonious to us we call it dis-ease or imbalanced. Sound and vibrations can be used to project healing frequencies back into the body. As our bodies are unique to the individual I use intent along with the sound to facilitate healing in the body. Sound healing is an effective and proven modality that uses vibrational sound to help reduce stress, alter consciousness and create a deep sense of peace, well being and better health.

What are the benefits?

Sound can potentially rearrange molecular structure and have limitless possible healing applications. Through my unique system, people may experience a drastic reduction or elimination of Stress Emotional difficulties physical pain and discomfort Insomnia Depression Improves Relaxation the bodies self healing mechanism memor, concentration, & focus Enhanced creativity A deep sense of well being Vitality Ability to take action Self transformation

Many report a deep sense of tranquility, sleep soundly and feel the effects of the treatment for several days.

a little background info... Naturopath and sound healer, John Beaulieu, says "our bodies have an inner concert of rhythms-alive with heartbeats, pulses, respiratory rates, cerebrospinal fluid waves, lymphatic fluctuations, and blood flows. The brain pulses in Delta, Theta, Alpha, and Beta rhythms which are associated with different states of consciousness. Upon deep inwardly searching, increasingly complex series and combinations of waves and rhythms are uncovered."

In a landmark discovery with Dr. George Stefano in 1998, which won the three doctors involved the Nobel Prize, Beaulieu states that "specific vibrations transferred to cells via tuning forks causes the spiking, or release, of nitric oxide". Apparently, this release sets off a cascade of physiological events which directly influences our health, wellbeing, state of mind, and consciousness. They discovered that our cells produce and release nitric oxide which he says has changed medicine dramatically.

Beaulieu says, "Nitric oxide is a molecule created by a nitrogen atom bound to an oxygen atom. It's made in our cells and released into the surrounding tissues as a gas. The release of nitric oxide by our cells brings about many benefits including: Enhancing cell vitality, vascular flow and heart healing; destroys bacteria and virus at a micro level which naturally enhances our immune system and increases our ability to prevent and fight infections, increases resistance to stress and greater levels of energy and stamina, sharpens mental clarity and diminishes states of depression.

Dr. Peter Guy Manners, who created the Cymatic Instuent, with which sound is projected into the body for healing, describes resonant healing as such:

"A healthy organ will have its molecules working together in a harmonious relationship with each other and will all be of the same pattern. If different sound patterns enter into the organ, the harmonious relationship could be upset...they may establish their disharmonious pattern in the organ, bone tissue, etc., and this is what we call disease. If therefore, a treatment contains a harmonic frequency pattern which will reinforce the organs, the vibrations of the intruders will be neutralized and the correct pattern for that organ reestablished. This should constitute a curative reaction."

During our normal waking state, the normal frequency of our brain waves is that of Beta. Sound tools entrain the brain to move into the deeper Alpha and Theta brain wave frequencies. These are the frequencies that induce deep meditative and peaceful states, clarity of mind and intuition. Modern medicine can now measure and thus confirm the practice of sound as a means to heal. Mitchel Gaynor, MD is the clinical professor at Weill- Cornell Medical College and founder of Gaynor Integrative Oncology in New York City. The August 2003 issue of Spirituality and Health magazine reports the success he's had treating victims of life threatening disease and those undergoing chemotherapy and side effects using sound therapy including Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls and chanting.

Dr. Gaynor states "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."

Sound healing is not a miracle but some of the reasons why the healing potential of sound is so powerful are still being researched. Since sound can potentially rearrange molecular structure, the possible healing applications of sound are limitless. The Spirituality and Health magazine article states that a more holistic approach to medicine is now being embraced in medical schools such as Duke University and the University of North Carolina. These institutions have added programs that address the connection between mind, body and spirit.

We know, for example that the vibrations from sound engage the relaxation reflex while they inhibit the stress or pain response. But there is a strong spiritual component that is at work here as well. It is the combination of both that creates healing. On a scientific level, a sound healing will normally reduce brain wave activity; slow the respiratory and heart rate.

Instruments, including Tibetan singing bowls, Crystal Chakra bowls, Tuning Forks, Chimes, and Symbols are 'struck and sung' in rhythmic patterns to create vibrational sound harmonics that impacts the sympathetic nervous system as your brain waves synchronize to the vibrations.

The harmonic vibrations engage the relaxation reflex and slow down the respiratory, brain and heart rate and disrupt the pain reflex creating a deep sense of well being.

I use a special method of energizing the brain and the body through sound and intention by exposing clients to patterned vibrational sound from ancient Tibetan Singing Bowls, Crystal Chakra Singing Bowls, Tuning Forks, and specialized Chimes and Symbols, and Chanting, as well as implementing specialized music created for healing and meditation. I believe in integrated health services so in addition I use Reiki, Crystal Therapy, Mudras and Acupressure, Meditation, Visualizations, and Affirmations thus creating a powerful combination that creates a true body, mind, spirit connection which is vital for natural and holistic healing.

A little about some of the various sound instruments used.....

Tibetan Singing Bowl Tibetan singing bowls date back to the late 18th century. Singing Bowls were brought to Tibet from India along with the teachings of Lord Buddha. They are hand made in a wonderful combination of 7 different metals which create 7 different distinct tones. According to tradition, the seven metals correspond with each of the planets,

* Gold = the sun * Silver = the moon * Mercury = Mercury * Copper = Venus * Iron = Mars * Tin = Jupiter * Lead = Saturn

Since Tibetan singing bowls have a very mysterious history it is sometimes hard to find information about them, in fact there is literally no mention of them in the Tibetan Buddhist canon. They can be found in both monasteries and homes, but when questioned about there existence vague answers are usually given. It has been rumored that it is actually forbidden for monks to speak about the singing bowls. Some say that the bowls are used by high lamas in

secret rituals, which gives them the ability to travel to different realms and dimensions. In the end one thing remains certain, that singing bowls are a very powerful spiritual tool. In addition to their traditional usage for meditation, Tibetan Singing Bowls are used for Sound Therapy, Meditation, Relaxation, Stress Reduction, Healing, and Reiki. Singing Bowls produces a wonderful singing sound when they are struck or rubbed by a singing bowls striker/mallet or dowel. Their sound calms the nervous system reviving brain functions and has had successful results in holistic treatments.

Crystal Chakra Bowl

These bowls are made of pure quartz crystal so they resonate with the natural world as well as our bodies, since we are crystalline in form as well. Crystal bowls reawaken our ability to hear and listen on many levels. They have an other worldly sound to them. Their vibrations travel through your body and heal on a cellular level. Interestingly, Edgar Cayce predicted that pure tone would be used for healing of cancer by 1998. Silicone crystal acts as an oscillator, magnifying and transmitting pure tone, for this reason it is being used in telecommunication devices, computers, and even watches. Used with a powerful healing intention, crystal bowls transmit energy into the atmosphere, your electromagnetically field and your physical body. . They are powerful healing tools as they combine the healing power of sound with the healing power of quartz crystal (please see my Crystal Healing page for additional information). Tuning Forks

Tuning forks are used to project sound directly into the physical body. It is a sonic massage tool that when placed on acupressure points you can feel the sound travel through your body. One I use is a low toned Ohm sound. The Tibetans believe that this is the sound of the universe and perfection.

Chanting Chanting is an ancient and universal practice that has been found in many cultures dating back thousands of years such as Buddhist, Christian, Egyptian, Grecian, Nubian and even in Sumerian text. The continuous recitation of mantras using sacred sound and composed of names, words and syllables, is used in meditation, healing, religious, and ritual ceremonies.

Some call chanting a primitive way of altering the consciousness and raising psychic power or energy. Others say it connects them with the Divine. Hemisync

Hemi-Sync is a state-of-the-art audio technology that enables us to mobilize and direct the power of our mind. Developed and refined by The Monroe Institute during 40 years of research, awarded U.S. government patents, and internationally recognized in the field of brain/mind investigation, this remarkable technology has benefitted hundreds of thousands of people. Hemi-Sync is based on the natural functioning of the brain. Our brains produce different patterns of electrical activity (brain waves) when we are in different states of consciousness. For example, Alpha brain waves predominate when we daydream, and Delta when we sleep. Very simply, Hemi-Sync encourages your brain to produce the brainwave activity necessary for what you want to accomplish. Therefore, a Hemi-Sync relaxation tape encourages the brain to produce brain waves that are naturally characteristic of a relaxed state; when you want an especially sharp focus of attention for peak performance, a concentration tape helps your brain achieve this goal.

Sounds of the planets Recordings from the planets and moons of our Solar System Be prepared to experience a new dimension of our Solar System through the most exciting journey ever undertaken by humankind. The epic space flights of Voyager I & II across our Solar System. This unique series of recordings is created from original Voyager recordings of the electromagnetic voices of the planets and moons in our Solar System. Although space is a virtual vacuum, this does not mean there is no sound in space. Sound does exist as electronic vibrations. The specially designed instruments on board the Voyagers performed special experiments to pick up and record these vibrations, all within the range of human hearing. Voyager explored Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These recordings come from a variety of different sound environments: 1. Interaction of the solar wind with the planets magnetoshere 2. The magnetoshere itself 3. Trapped radio waves bouncing between the planet and the inner surface of its atmosphere. 4. Electromagnetic field noise within space itself

5. Charged particle interactions of the planet, its moons, and the solar wind 6. Charged particle emissions from the rings of certain planets. These recordings are used in sessions based on the concept that everything in the universe is also mapped out in our bodies. I have experienced deep states of meditation and altered states of consciousness in listening to these recordings.
