I find that we are all looking for this sense of magic. We want to be inspired and filled with awe!

I find that we are all looking for this sense of magic. We want to be inspired and filled with awe!

It’s probably the thing I find the coolest about a sound bath experience. It gets you in touch with that feeling... and the best part of it is, it comes from this place deep inside each of us. That feeling you are longing for, is actually something that already lives within you!

There are lots of opportunities to connect with that feeling in the coming weeks with the sessions and new offerings I have available to you. But the best part, is that this feeling is just the beginning. Once you experience it... once you remember what it’s like, it stays with you. Whether you come to one sound bath session or many. What will you do with that feeling!?!

April 28 - Relax in Sound at Westside Yoga Atlanta

Among the many forms in which human spirit has tried to express its innermost yearnings and perceptions, music is perhaps the most universal.

“Among the many forms in which human spirit has tried to express its innermost yearnings and perceptions, music is perhaps the most universal. It symbolizes the yearning for harmony, with oneself and others, with nature and the spiritual and the sacred within us and around us. There is something in music that transcends and unites. This is evident in the sacred music of every community—music that expresses the universal yearning that is shared by people all over the globe.”

From His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama (From Song of the Spirit: The World of Sacred Music)

Join me tomorrow, Wednesday, February 6th for 'Relax in Sound'. A Sound Bath supporting inner awareness that leads to self empowerment. Transcending time and space.

Last week I had the opportunity to share my story with Shawn Moore, M.S. host of the The Mindful Rebel podcast. We talked about entrepreneurship, how I got into sound healing, legacy, and of course, the fundraiser!

Let me know if you take a listen! I think you will get a better sense of why I do what I do. There is something else that drives me. And it’s NOT sound healing.

This is the rush. Stay grounded.

This is the rush. Stay grounded.

This is the time of year where it becomes easy to loose ourselves. Ground down... then take action. I have to do the same work you do and I have to say... if it weren’t for some really amazing humans in my life, I may not have made such big leaps the past couple of years. Seriously! How does one go from homeless (bouncing from couch to couch) in 2016, to THRIVING less than 2 years later?

When you act out of love, you receive it.

What is your support system? What support do you have in place?

This time of year our spirit wants to go more inward and hibernate. You may be working out the details and planning for the new year. This is the time. Be patient with yourself. Where can you show yourself compassion? Who are the people you can reach out to, to remind and reflect back to you, your greatness?

2 sound baths coming up this week. I have one in East Cobb on the 8th and one in Buckhead on the 9th. Next week, one in Atlanta on the 14th. Sign up. Let’s ground. Let’s support each other.

Raise your vibration.

Raise your vibration.

“A higher vibration is simply a more consistent vibration, one with fewer distortions and distractions.”

When our thoughts flow smoothly we create a more harmonious flow within the systems of the body. Belief systems can override physical reality. An emotional release can make a physical pain go away.  A spiritual breakthrough can ease the mind where one can find peace.

“A willingness to face oneself to course correct, and consistently evolving though self-love and compassion, disperses these distortions. It’s a courageous act. It’s a personal call to action to raise one’s vibration.” -Danielle Hall

Use your tongue to stimulate and balance the chakras!

Use your tongue to stimulate and balance the chakras!

There are five tongue positions used in the Sanskrit Alphabet. As we sound the bija mantras the five different tongue positions stimulate the five elements balancing the chakras.

We are going to utilize these 5 tongue positions tomorrow at Modern Mystic Shop during a FREE class for their Sunday School Series.  Come see me from 11am -12pm tomorrow! (Sunday, Nov 4th) 
See you tomorrow!

Mental Health + Sound Healing

Here are some stats:

1. Around 20% of the world's children and adolescents have mental disorders or problems. About half of mental disorders begin before the age of 14.

2. Mental and substance use disorders are the leading cause of disability worldwide. About 23% of all years lost because of disability is caused by mental and substance use disorders.

3. About 800,000 people commit suicide every year and is the second leading cause of death in 15-29-year-olds.

4. Mental disorders are important risk factors for other diseases, as well as unintentional and intentional injury. Mental disorders increase the risk of getting ill from other diseases such as HIV, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and vice-versa.

5. Stigma and discrimination against patients and families prevent people from seeking mental health care.

Here is how Sound Healing can help:

The brain’s internal communication is based on frequency. Our brainwaves are measured in hertz just like sound.

It has been shown that:
1. certain brainwave frequencies increase the production of serotonin, to help ease pain and increase relaxation.

2. that certain brainwave frequencies increase production of catecholamines, which are important for memory and learning, and

3. reaching deep sleep, which is beneficial for repair and recover quicker from injury, exercise or daily physical stress, and human growth hormone (HGH) is released when our brains are in the delta state.

It’s known and proven that by exercising our brain, we have better mental and emotional health and increased intellectual functioning. And that’s JUST what we do here at SoundEmbrace. We create sound experiences that exercise your brain so that your body can go into its own natural healing state. We are not solving all the worlds problems around mental health but we are a big part of the conversation and contribution to supporting the overarching mission to support adults and kids in this area.

Come check out a Sound Bath. See for yourself. We can take HSA + FSA, too!

Calm the mind already!

There are many forms of Sound Healing that can be used as a way to help release ourselves from our obsessive thinking.

When we sing to the songs on the radio, becoming ONE with Bae, or Brushin Your Should Off, we are in a sense, emulating those artists. However, laying down for a sound bath experience can be used as a tool to support in the letting go of the personas we pick up during our day, as well as the one we identify with... it helps you let go of thoughts, bring awareness back to Sound and truly find Stillness. .
A regular practice trains us to have the ability to let go. You can think of sound as the net that captures your thoughts into one place and the stillness diffuses its power over you and releases it. Going back to sound is an empowered action that supports us in the letting go of the things we obsess over. Like... if Kiki really does loves you. DUUUUUUDE! Come on! If you made sound to stillness a part of your everyday practice this THING with Kiki may not take as long to get over!

That goes for all of us. Having a Sound to Stillness Practice supports you in those times you get a blast of negative emotions like when you’re cut off in traffic, have a disagreement, go through a breakup, or someone writes your name wrong on your cup at Starbucks... it may take you 2 months to get over it rather than a year!

September is a special month. I am wrapping up my time facilitating in Philly and road tripping back to Atlanta tomorrow. Just in time to start a series of Sound Baths starting THIS Wednesday night.

These sound bath experiences can be used as a tool to conquer your obsessive mind chatter by training ourselves to let go and come back to a deeper, quieter place within.
