Seed to liberate the mind.

Seed to liberate the mind.

In Sanskrit, there are certain sounds which cannot be translated into a literal meaning but have the power to create great transformative growth and expansion at the physical, emotional and spiritual levels.  These are known as “Bija” or Seed Mantras.

In Vedic tradition, “Bija Mantras” are used as tools for the expansion and widening of one’s mind by utilizing the power of sound vibrations.

“Mantra” is a Sanskrit word made up of two syllables: “man” (mind) and “tra” (liberate). The literal translation the word “Mantra” means “to liberate one’s mind”.
“Bija” is translated to “seed.”

Join me Sunday, November 4th, 11am -12pm at Modern Mystic Shop for a FREE class on the Bija Mantras. You will learn A Simple Yet Powerful Bija Mantra Meditation Ritual, apply it in class, as well as receive a sweet sound bath at the end!  Are you coming?

Dominic was one of the first Sound Healing Practitioners I mentored and then went on to hire pretty regularly in the Bay Area.

Dominic was one of the first Sound Healing Practitioners I mentored and then went on to hire pretty regularly in the Bay Area. I learned so much about how to be a teach, challenge my students, and making information accessible. Dominic just birthed The Resonant People Project. A non profit researching the affects of sound and vibration. I am super excited to support him in this work and be a collaborative member of the group!

Dominic has started monthly sound bath sessions where proceeds will go straight to this research! Bay Area friends... you can support this research by signing up for one of his sound bath sessions. Everyone wins!!! The next one is November 4th!

If you are wanting to donate to this research you can also go to Resonant People and there is a DONATE button.

We are making way! We can’t wait to share our findings with you and support the elevation of this vast field of Sound Healing Therapy!!!💕

Discussing legislation tomorrow with Representative John Lewis and Recording Academy!

Discussing legislation tomorrow with Representative John Lewis and Recording Academy!

The Music Modernization Act was signed and I have the great pleasure and opportunity to be a part of the conversation for what’s next.

The Music Modernization Act is indeed a milestone achievement, but Congress can continue to have a tremendous impact on the livelihoods of the music community.

I’m sure we all can agree that Music has been there for each of us in so many ways. For me, it was playing the saxophone in high school to deal with my on again/off again health issues. But I didn’t know I was in love with music until I dated a guy who was a Dj who exposed me to so much more. That whole group of friends (DJ’s, musicians, music lovers!) inspired me on the daily and I am SO EXCITED that this impacts people I care about! Then, I found sound healing, and my relationship to music evolved into the most intimate of love affairs. It’s the impact of what I do in Sound Healing that is propelling me into being a part of this bigger conversation.

Tomorrow, a group from the Recording Academy and I have the opportunity to meet with Representative John Lewis to be a part of the conversation around legislation that supports music makers. I look forward to sharing more with you tomorrow... for now... I’m going to let this sit. Stoked to be a part of this! EPIC!

Social Media Has Created a Whole New Industry

Social media has created a whole new industry where there are now therapist specializing in social media addiction and the depression, anxiety, and attempted suicides that come with it. And I’m NOT just talking about adults... I work with one of those amazing therapy centers. I am so thankful for the work that Paradigm San Francisco does to help our youth, and the value they see from having sound healing as part of their program once a week. This is real. For something that is suppose to bring us together, and be a source of information, how can we empower our youth when they are inundated by highlight reels? I’m not saying take away screen time... this is still a powerful tool! But how do we empower our youth on social media? I don’t know what it’s like to be a parent. But I can tell you that our kids need us. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be hired by these therapy centers to work with them...

What dialog are you having with your children around social media? Have you experienced a dialog around comparison, depression, anxiety, or sexuality from what they are seeing on these channels? Comment below.

(Thank you ahead time for anyone commenting on this sensitive topic.)

Wow... thank you all for coming out!

Wow... thank you all for coming out! It fills my heart when I see a full room because it’s a sign that you are experiencing transformation and seeing the value of this work. We are all part of the same tribe. And when we come together like this it reminds us that we are not going at this thing called LIFE alone. Thank you Kelsey Reed from Innercise Yoga for an awesome collab, and Atlanta Yoga Collective for hosting us today!

I’m getting goosebumps for Wednesday’s Sound Bath at Studioplex! Not only has Transcend Healing Massage invited us back, but! You will experience 14 quartz crystal bowls and Kea Beverages will be there to help ground you with some delicious kombucha and juices! Let’s relax what needs relaxing! Let’s move what needs to be moved! Let’s find clarity and shift perspective! THIS. IS. YOU. TIME!
