What is Therapeutic Sound?

                  Sound is primary, not secondary. Sound and vibration are primal to our bodies. Sound is feeling, perception and sensing, yet so much more as we as humans have known sound and vibration from the beginning of our beginning.

Vibrations produced by the many instruments that are used have a way of not only calming the body (nervous system) but also bring your body back from dissonance to coherence by way of entrainment. Your body and mind naturally want to vibrate at certain frequencies as the magnificent electrical, intelligent Being that it is. However, our disconnection from the Earth and from really knowing and hearing our own bodies due to circumstances, stress, trauma, all that life has thrown our way can disrupt and prevent this vibrational flow from happening. 

Playing the planetary Gong or the Tuning Forks, or the crystal singing bowls and chimes or all of the above in harmonic sequences, gives your body a way for it to "hear itself" at the frequency it's currently attuned to and where it wants to go, also known as Biofeedback, to bring about more balance, harmony and flow. Your body will want to "meet the frequency that I'm playing."  Which then creates entrainment, where your body and mind stop thinking and simply BE in and with the sound. This 'space' allows for your body to open up to and respond to it's ability to heal itself.

It's all about Energy, Information, Vibration and learning to listen into the pauses in between. They all work together. With Reiki and Sacred Sound with the instruments, we are co-creating a new, more integrated you.  

Shannon's one-on-one private sessions go deep in harmonizing the whole of you, body, mind and soul.
