THE POWER & HEALING OF GONGS & SACRED SOUNDS
"If we accept 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. One reason sound heals on a physical level is that it so deeply touches and transforms us on the emotional and spiritual planes. Sound can redress imbalances on every level of physiologic functioning and can play a positive role in the treatment of any medical disorder." Dr. Mitchell Gaynor, director of Medical Oncology and Integrative Medicine, at the Cornell Cancer Prevention Centre in New York.
HOW DOES SOUND HEALING WORK?
Sound healing offers us a wonderful opportunity to embrace high healing frequencies from "pure sound", natural, not electric or synthetic.
The healing frequencies permeate the cells of our bodies, and gongs in particular have the greatest range of frequencies to move more emotional and physical stagnation. Inviting us to embrace the "Alpha "deep meditative space of healing.Transporting us from a space of imbalance to a balanced state of heightened awareness, inner peace, and deep relaxation of our mind, body, and spirit.
The purity of sound activates our body's natural self-regulating healing process. As our bodies resonate with the purity of the sound, creating balance within the energy centers/chakras. Sound frequencies facilitate shifts in our brainwaves by moving the emotional stagnation caused by traumatic "defaults" to a particular state of feeling by synchronizing our fluctuating brainwaves by providing a stable frequency to which the brainwave can attune. By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves to shift from our normal beta state (normal waking consciousness) to alpha (relaxed consciousness). Embracing the "theta meditative state "and "delta sleep state", facilitating deep conscious and unconscious, physical and emotional healing.
Our bodies are made mostly of water and a crystalline structure, which are excellent conductors for sound and vibration. The pure tones and vibrations from the Tibetan bowls, gongs, and chimes are transmitted to our cells, which release toxins. Balancing the circulatory, endocrine, and metabolic systems and supporting the body to self-regulate cellular healing & rejuvenation.
