The very first time I experienced vibrational sound therapy with Himalayan singing bowls, I walked away knowing that I needed to learn this modality so that I could share it with others. At the time I was in a constant state of fight or flight. My body was flooded with cortisol and stress hormones due to the work I was doing, and financial and relationship stress. The bowls dropped me into a deep state of relaxation that I hadn’t been able to access in a long time. I floated out of the room in a sort of bliss which lasted the next 24 hours or so, and left me with a renewed sense of relaxed fortitude for the challenges that I was facing.

For me, the vibrations bring inspired lucid dream visions, a sense of journeying deep within myself, and a reminder of our innate vibrational nature that resonates with the entire world. The experience enables me to feel more attuned with my body through sensing the movement of energy as it travels through every system - organs, bones, lymph, etc.

This is a very gentle therapy that can have powerful effects on your state of being. Your body is highly intelligent and self-healing, and the optimal condition for these capacities is deep relaxation. Mental and emotional stress floods your body with stress hormones that over time can cause extensive damage to nearly every system in the body.

It is wonderful when used in tandem with all forms of psychotherapy, psychedelic therapy preparation / integration work, massage and acupuncture.

WHAT TO EXPECT

A vibrational sound therapy session uses bronze Himalayan singing bowls that are handcrafted specially to be used on the body and create physical vibrations that will travel through your body. You will be on a massage table, fully clothed and surrounded in soft flannel sheets. The table can be heated so that you are as warm and cozy as possible. Bowls of varying sizes are placed on your body in a specific combination, and played with a mallet to move the sound and vibration through you. Before the session we will check in about medical conditions and current state of health and wellbeing. If there are any contraindications to using the bowls directly on the body, for example pregnancy, I can play the bowls on the table so that the vibrations are even more gentle, but still effective.

Vibrational sound therapy wakes up and moves a lot of energy in your body. On the day of your session, please make sure to drink lots of water, refrain from drinking alcohol, drive carefully after your session, rest and be gentle with yourself.
