Sound healing is the most beautiful and peaceful experience you can have. When I first sat for a two hour sound healing session, I had not idea what to expect. The idea of instruments healing the body and trauma was crazy to me. But as soon as I heard the crystal bowls, it all made sense. The intensity and vibrations coming from the bowls made me want to throw up. I felt like I just entered a trance in my own mind. I felt my pain begin to leave my body and gained mental clarity. I couldn't stop smiling. Ever since that day, I became a certified sound healer and I believe it is my life's purpose to heal people through music.

So, what does sound healing do for the body?

Sound healing helps with:

-Reducing stress

-Lowering blood pressure

-Better pain management

-Reduces inflammation

-Lowering cholesterol

-Helps with depression and anxiety

-Reduces the risk of strokes and coronary artery diseases

-Improves better sleep

-Helps release emotions and trauma

One of my favorite things about sound healing is the ability to quiet the mind and to let go.

What instruments do you use and how do they work?

The Gong

The gong is one of my personal favorites. Gongs are usually used to clear any negative energy and ground the body. The benefits of the gong are quite amazing!

-Takes away stress

-Stimulates an altered state of consciousness-deep relaxation state

-Reduces stress and anxiety

-Improves focus and mental clarity

How gong magic works:

The frequencies from the gong surpass the intellectual parts of the brain and go to the core of the cellular system and promotes healing qualities.

Crystal Bowls

Crystal bowls do not just sound beautiful, they have amazing benefits as well. These bowls are amazing for balancing chakras due to each bowl represents each one. The vibrations that come off have the ability to move through skin, fluids and bones which creates the body to relax and recalibration to the level of the cellular structure.
