::::SOUND ON::::

::::SOUND ON::::

Nada Yogis in India have been saying that this universe is made up of sound. And everything that is vibrating in this universe is giving off a frequency.

Great! Because, Quantum physicists discovered that physical atoms are made up of vortices of energy that are constantly spinning and vibrating, each one radiating its own unique energy signature.

Therefore, if we really want to observe ourselves and find out what we are, we are really beings of energy and vibration, radiating our own unique energy signature.

Weird right? Our experience tells us that our reality is made up of physical material things. The revelation that the universe is not an assembly of physical parts, suggested by Newtonian physics, but instead comes from a holistic entanglement of immaterial energy waves stemming from the research of Albert Einstein, Max Planck and Werner Heisenberg, among others.

The significance of this information is for us to realize that we are all energy, radiating our own unique energy signature. Feelings, thoughts and emotions play a vital role in our reality, and through Sound or Nada Yoga, we apply quantum physics to help us see the significance of how we all feel and how sound impacts our internal world as well as the external world.

This is the FOUNDATION of Sound Healing.

Summer Solstice opened me up!

Summer Solstice opened me up!

Playing a little catch up today and I am reflecting back to yesterday mornings Summer Solstice event. Flip through to check out some highlights including a short video at the end (check out that gong power 🔥✨)

SOUND has the ability to open us up to depths of our subconscious that are otherwise difficult to tap into. It has the ability to bring to your awareness where you are holding yourself back. What’s so powerful about that is that you can’t go back... we now have a choice. A choice to make the change you want to see in your life or to stay where you are.

This Summer Solstice opened me up to a new community. From sun salutations, a medicine wheel and intention ceremony, we practiced right on Peachtree St at the base of the new mural of Aurora at Colony Square Atlanta.
We invited in the light on the longest day of the year holding the intention that by letting in the light, each person would be supported in connecting to, and taking action on their highest truth.

So much gratitude for the lovely Shelly for leading this beautiful event and Colony Square Atlanta for curating the details, holding space, and being open to hosting events that have the power to deeply touch the lives of the community.

Phases...

Phases...

We are all in one. As a wellness entrepreneur + light barer, I know you sometimes feel overwhelmed by all the ways you want to show up because of the love you have for helping others. I know you feel the weight of responsibility to do a great service. And I know are ready to step into this work in a BIG way.

I also know, it cant be done alone. There are different phases we go through in life and business, and it is important to constantly bring our focus to the present.

Where do I start?
What should or could I be thinking about to get my message out? To make my message clear?
Am I operating from fear?

Are you in a phase to spend a day working on your business, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence? Registration for Sales as a Spiritual Practice closes end of day TOMORROW (Wednesday) so I can prep for you. Let’s do this! Together. 💕
(This is for sound Healers, energy workers, massage therapist, practitioners, yoga instructors, energy workers, and wellness/holistic coaches, teachers, practitioners, and therapists.

And let’s get to business!

The reality is... everything is working in your favor.

The reality is... everything is working in your favor.

It’s hard for me to say that without hearing others voices pop in saying: :
“Well, what about all my health issues?”
“What about him/her cheating on me?”
“What about me not having money?”

Your health issues are working in your favor to show you how to better take care of your mind body connection.

Him/her cheating is working in your favor to acknowledge what you will except in a relationship, awareness of your self worth, and if that person respects you.

Not having money is working in your favor to help you stay humble and have gratitude for when you do have money, it strengthens your ability to adapt, and develops your work ethic.

I’m not saying that what is in your favor is easy. Wow... IT SUUUUCKS!! I’ve had the health challenges... I’ve been in less than ideal relationships... I’ve been homeless... and when you are there, it’s really hard sometimes to see that THIS situation is being provided as an opportunity.

But here’s the take away... your beliefs dictate your actions and your words. And if you believe that the hard times are set forth in your favor, invisible doors will open.

Today, I am healthy.
Today, I am surrounded by loving relationships.
Today, I am prosperous!

And you can be too. It’s your choice.

“I’m not going to fight against something. I’m going to fight for something.”

“I’m not going to fight against something. I’m going to fight for something.”

Sometimes I feel like my job is really to have conversations with people.. asking them questions about the things they are holding onto.

“Where are you giving your power away?”
“Are you happy in the job/relationship?”
“What about your health/body you struggling with?”

There is a belief system attached to all of these things. There is a perspective that they are holding on to that is keeping them trapped in the same pattern. Same health. Same relationships. THESE THINGS that they are fighting for and holding on to as their identities.

Yet, at any moment, we can decide to be someone new. We can choose to fight for something different. Something better. But it will take letting go of what’s comfortable and familiar, and step into a place you haven’t been.

It’s a choice to hold resentment. 
It’s a choice to stay in the job.
It’s a choice to open your heart to love and stay, but it’s also a choice to love and to go.
It’s a choice to speak differently to yourself.

Dr Joe Dispenza’s research on shifting your belief is eye opening. If you can get to a place of experiencing pure consciousness your body, mind, and heart will shift and start to repair.

He says, “you can’t think your way out of thinking. You can’t ego your way out of ego.” It takes a lot of time. But getting to a place of pure consciousness is like the Sonic the Hedgehog fast track for your mind-body!

Sound baths a great way to help you get to that state. The next one is next week! Wednesday the 6th. I have opportunities for you on the Eastside, Westside, and East Cobb/Marietta. AND a special/INTENSE sound healing experience called Sound Journey on the 17th, as well as an epic experience through Quantum Meditation, Kundalini Yoga, and Sound Bath!(that one is a fundraiser, too!) That’s March 21!💕

March, is DOPE! I can’t wait to see you for one/all these experiences! Stop fighting against the life you don’t want... fight for the life YOU DO WANT. Link in bio for details and to sign up!

Atlanta + San Francisco!

Atlanta + San Francisco! Ready to make an impact?

Sound Healing Therapy is not going away anytime soon. Its catching on.  The instruments are becoming more and more accessible. And the conversation is starting to be taken seriously.  And I wouldn't be saying SERIOUSLY if I hadn't been excepted to take HSA + FSA payments! .
This is why I created the Sound Healing 101 class.  I know you are ready make a difference, and Sound Healing is on the rise.

The media is talking about it. Hospitals are adopting new frequency technology for treatment. And we are hearing about it more and more within our communities.
With this new found buzz, we are seeing a wave of interest in new practitioners to the field. We are witnessing the growth of Sound Healing in classes, coaching/therapy sessions, and in music production. The danger, is that a lot of them are unaware of how sound affects the body and what they may be doing to their clients.

This class will empower you to create a session that supports your clients on their path to healing as well provide a foundation to speak on this work with confidence.

Let me know if you have any questions. DM me to chat about how you can make an impact in the lives of others by using sound as the tool for transformation, health and wellness. You can sign up for class by clicking on the link in bio and choosing the date of class you want to take:
San Francisco : Dec 8th
Atlanta: Jan 12

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.

From Sound to Stillness

Whenever I feel like I'm not quite sure what I need to do next OR am feeling overwhelmed, I find the peace and clarity I need when I take myself out of what is familiar.

I consider all of this pretty natural. It’s easy to fall into a routine when we are in a familiar space. We fall into a comfortable rhythm. It’s safe. The same words. The same thoughts. The same food. The same people. The same movement. When we do something over and over it becomes a habit and we begin to make unconscious actions. Those actions can sometimes lead to a feeling of “stuck” for me. Have you experienced that?

Taking myself out of my “everyday” disrupts those rhythms and patterns. It introduces me to a different conversation and awarenesses that supports me in finding clarity and focus in my next steps. Sometimes that’s through a road trip. Sometimes it’s by making the conscious decision to do something differently.

But, I didn't always have this level of self awareness. Sound Healing has helped me build this awareness. I use Sound as the vehicle to get me to Stillness.

It is within Stillness, we find awareness and clarity that we can then use to Empower ourselves to make the change we want to see in our lives, and there is so much peace that comes from it. The more you practice Stillness, the easier it is to get there.

I have so many opportunities for you to join me this month. Ive noticed that my facilitation has shifted. I’m starting to use my voice more and it feels like my drums have come alive! Your energy is asking for something different and I am answering the call. I can tell that many of you are starting to find your voice. I hear you.

Choose to do something you haven’t done before, or maybe just a little out of routine. Witness the mind and body align to find peace and clarity.

Evening Cup Introspection/ Almond milk Chai Latte / Sept 19th / 6:01pm / Kings Beach, CA.

There is a study by Santa Cruz University that compared historical views of looking out across an ocean or lake versus looking out across land. The study said that looking across these large bodies of water instilled hope, and that you could see and feel infinite possibility. Having the opportunity to do that this weekend did just that. It alleviated some fear I had over how this crowdfunding campaign would go. (Link in bio) Made me think about what success is for me, and to me. It's was the reset I needed to put a few things in perspective. Little bit of caffeine before I set out on the road back to the Bay. I hope you join me tomorrow in San Rafael for a beautiful Sound + Breath gathering under the stars with Faye Wilder, and then on Thursday in SF at StudioMix SF for a Heart Opening Vinyasa Flow followed by an integrative Sound Experience. Then! Sunday in LA for a sound immersion at JAM .

Lots of opportunities to hug it out!

I had a moment of clarity last night when I was facilitating a sound experience for SOULstice Sisterhood led by Ashley Burnett. In all the doing, the prep, the scheduling, the research, the teaching, the EVERYTHING that you have to and need to do to bring your dream to a waking reality I suddenly become enveloped with immense joy that I AM LIVING MY DREAM. It was intense and beautiful! The hard work and perseverance is paying off... even with this app! The vulnerability that comes from asking your community, friends, and family to support your dream in a financial energetic exchange, The courage that it takes to do something no one has done, And the pause. The powerful pause to acknowledge that I am doing something great. Something that will help so many people! And the biggest thing of all is that through this support I know I am not alone. I am so thankful for my Soul sisters, my Bay Area Family, my Atlanta family, my Yoga family, my Sound Healing family, my FAMILY FAMILY, and my Plywood People family! Incredible... If you are looking for the link to donate to this sound healing app, check out the link. So much love!
