sound healing: a tool for balancing mind and body
Sound healing is a form of meditation that uses sound rhythms and vibrations to reset both the mind and body, penetrating every cell within us.
For thousands of years, cultures around the world have used sound to achieve balance and promote overall well-being.
Altering our brainwaves from the regular beta state to the theta state, sound promotes relaxation and balance. It can also alter the rhythm of our heartbeat and breathing, helping to move the body back into balance.
It is often referred to as a sound bath, as the sound waves wash over you, helping to clear away any negative or stagnant energies. As adults, our bodies are made up of 60%-75% water, making it an ideal conductor for sound vibration. As vibrations travel through the body, they can promote blood circulation, energy flow, and rejuvenation. Synchronising with our brainwaves, sound activates our body's destress responses, balancing our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual selves.
In summary, sound healing can :
provide a deep state of relaxation,
reduce stress,
improve sleep,
enhance creativity,
relieve pain through endorphin release,
reduce anxiety, depression, blood pressure, and many more.
Additionally, it can boost immunity and induce altered states of consciousness.
