Sound Healing
Sound Healing is the use of physical sound vibrations for a therapeutic benefit. Once we know 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.
For centuries sound has been utilized for healing and consciousness transformation. We are now discovering the science behind this powerful ancient modality which is so effective for healing today. Modern medicine can now measure and thus confirm the practice of sound as a means to heal.
Sound healing improves and transforms a range of physical and emotional states. It is effective for those with chronic illness, allergies, compulsive behavioral patterns or who are recovering from trauma and grief. Sound healing has been clinically shown to support people suffering from stress related disorders and chronic pain, as well as patients undergoing cancer treatments.
As well as providing a deep state of relaxation almost immediately, here is what sound healing can do:
Benefits:
• Modifies breathing rate and depth, heart rate, and blood pressure
• Triggers endorphin release, which improves mood and lessens pain
• Modifies release of stress hormones
• Enhances immunity
• Relieves or lessens depression and anxiety
• Calms presurgical and postoperative stress
• Relieves stress and allows your body to do its natural healing process
• Corrects imbalances in the energetic body
• Balances your nervous system
• Improves brain functioning and mental clarity
• Will uncover emotions to stimulate growth, development and transformation
• Enhances dream work or meditation
• Help with insomnia, addiction, lack of focusing
• Tune the body and the auric field to resonate in harmony with the world around us and facilitates wholeness

Sound
Stress and Sound Therapy Benefits
Today November 1st is national stress awareness day. How can Sound Therapy help you deal with stress?
If every sound is vibration and if the vibration touches each and every cell of our body, we can understand that we don’t perceive sound only with the ears, but with cell in our body.
Stress reduction is one of the most important results of receiving sound therapy. Stress is the underlying cause of many physical conditions and it melts away with ease when you are bathed in a sea of sound healing vibrations.
Sound Therapy is so effective because it influences our emotional bodies as well as our physical bodies. Emotional imbalances are at the root of many physical diseases and when we heal our emotional bodies, the physical symptoms disappear.
Sound and emotions are deeply connected. Human emotions have their immediate expression through sound, and it is often the repression of the sound of the emotions that creates emotional blockages. Conversely, sound can be used to unlock the blocked emotions and release them with ease.
Sound & Drum Therapy Workshops
This weekend in the WIT Arena, join me John Barron a Sound Practitioner with the Sound healing academy for this very special morning of relaxation and transformation. I’m a Waterford based Sound therapist, drummer & teacher and who uses gongs, singing bowls, drums and other percussion instruments to create soundscapes that relax and rejuvenate the mind body and spirit through sound and rhythm.
A Sound Meditation is like a very deep and lasting massage, by tuning the body and mind a resonance of balance is created. The session is usually lying down or seated. As this happens the waves of sound move through the nervous system opening, clearing and recharging the whole mind, body and spirit.
Sound enters the healing equation from several directions: it may alter cellular functions through energetic effects; it may entrain biological systems to function more homeostatically; it may calm the mind and therefore the body; or it may have emotional effects, which influence neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, which in turn help to regulate the immune system.
Sound is vibration that touches every part of our physical being. Sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell, every molecule in our bodies.
In this event you will get to experience my transformative instruments that will help to strengthen your the nervous system, balancing your chakras and increase your energy.
Sound therapy can help assist with the following:
* Chronic Stress and Fatigue
* Anxiety & Depression
* People who find it hard to meditate
* For physical and emotional blockages
* For a deep state of relaxation and rejuvenation
* Sleep issues
What To Bring
• Comfortable clothes
• Yoga mats and blankets are all supplied or bring one along if you like.
So come along and rejuvenate body and mind on a cellular level through the power of the Gongs.
*Please note many walk away with a natural happy buzz that lasts for several hours and I encourage you to drink lots of water after this sound detox.
