Competition Driven < Mission Driven

Competition Driven < Mission Driven

I recently talked about the upcoming Sound Healing 101 class in a group and someone asked, “Why would you even consider teaching Sound Healing and share how you do things? Wouldn’t that create more competition?”

We have been so conditioned by society to keep “secrets”, and hoard information. This creates a culture of lack. Of separation. Of fear, anxiety, depression, and mental illness!

I believe strongly in this work. It’s a belief rooted in results, and witnessing of Science and Spirit creating miracles! The only way to elevate the Sound Healing industry is to create an opportunity for education in the field. Otherwise, you are just “dinging” crystal bowls without really knowing what you are doing to people, let alone knowing what to do to create specific outcomes.

Competition… ya know… that’s not even something I focus on or even think about! My focus is on my mission. My mission to support the mental health and well being of our communities though sound healing therapy. And part of that is to create the opportunity for my students to thrive in the communities they are passionate about serving because honestly, I am not going to have as much influence there as they would. My students succeeding is meeting my mission! ❤️

When you go through either Sound Healing 101 or the Sound Healing Certification Program, you feel supported throughout. You gain community, opportunities for collaboration, resources, and support in getting started. You learn how to be a Mission driven business and stay true to your values.

Next Sound Healing 101 is Saturday, July 27th. And if you decide you want to venture into the Sound Healing Certification Program (Starts Aug 19!) Half of your ticket price of SH101 goes towards that balance. (payment plans available as well)

We need you to bring Sound Healing into the community you are passionate about serving.

Packing my Fiat is a little like Tetris, but it always seems to work! Small but mighty!

There are a few spots available for tonight’s sound bath at Bar Method Atlanta-East Cobb!

Also, Sound Healing 101! Let’s face it... you can actually hurt someone (and yourself) if you are playing these instruments for people in a sound bath or a 1 on 1. Sound Healing 101 provides the basics for anyone curious about doing this work, and how to get started. No instruments or experience required. I will have everything you need! Class is Saturday, July 27! ♥️🙌♥️

Made it back in to town just in time to catch Shana Nunnelly

Made it back in to town just in time to catch Shana Nunnelly
Sound Bath at Honee Comb Salon last night!

It’s a beautiful thing to get to a space in a sound bath session where you are pure consciousness. When pure consciousness, you are able to be the the unbiased, non judgmental observer of your thoughts. Witness... and let go.

When the gong started, orange and red flashed in, sharing that my creativity was grounded. That it’s held. And that there is flow. Then I saw, “Watch the sunset until the sun rises.” form within the the colors.

At the end, my teeth tingled and I felt heat in my gums. I felt the anticipation of the things to come, and what I have been working on soon to be fully expressed.

Because I took the time to ground before this next big wave, I received a sense of confirmation. I am awake. I am refreshed. I am feeling powerful, and ready.

Are you ready? Sound Healing 101 is Saturday, July 27th! His class is for you if you have new curious about sound healing and sound baths. Learn more about sound healing, play the instruments, and see if this is something you want to facilitate for others. (No instruments required) There is so much more happening than you think. This is BIG work.

<3 Danielle

Tomorrow!

Tomorrow!

I’m trying out some steady hours. Let’s see if it’s any good. 🙃

Come see me at my office tomorrow at The Center for Love and Light Atlanta and check out the Sound Apothecary! THE SPOT for sound healing instruments. It’s still in the baby stages but I’ve got crystal bowls, and hand drums for you to sit with, play, and see if you align with!

THIS WEEK : 10am - 2pm Tuesday through Friday! (DM me if you want to bring your bowls to see if your set aligns with your potential new bowl.)

To be, you.

To be, you.

What is it to be, You? The YOU that’s YOU is not going to be the same YOU as it is for me. Yet it’s within our similar themes like falling in love and heart ache, of triumph and failure, or adventure and being uninspired etc, that we can find the humanness, compassion, understanding, and love for one another.

A common theme I’ve notice on my IG thread lately, has been this out pour from people feeling like they are starting to feel fully expressed. Stepping into and acting in alignment is a powerful thing. When we feel expressed, or seen, it has the power to heal wounds. It has the power to shift perspectives and make radical change. YOU find the power within yourself to move mountains.

We all have an “Evolution of Self” story. Now that you’re here, you can also use this as a way to find more compassion for the path someone else has walked... because just like you, they have fallen in love and have had heart ache, they too have had moments of triumph and failure, or adventure and uninspired moments in time.

Happy 4th!

From where I sit…

From where I sit…

Every month I have the opportunity to hear your stories. I have the opportunity to be let in to the vulnerable parts of your lives, and play a part in your Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual growth. What an AWE-some role I get to play… and I don’t take it lightly.

Which is why I seek out mentors.
Which is why I make time to learn.
Which is why I meditate.
Which is why I share personal stories.
If I am not doing my own due diligence, why would you?

I want to leave you with something to think about before before next weeks sound bath…
•
Pick an area of your life you are HAPPY with and ask yourself , “What about this makes me happy?” Write that down.

Now, pick an area of your life you are NOT HAPPY about. Ask yourself, “ What about this makes me unhappy?” Write that down.
•
It doesn’t matter whether its your health, work, energy levels, abundance, or relationships… it’s the story, the belief system attached to it that propels you forward, or stops you from making progress!

Becoming aware of the belief or story you are attached to (even subconscious) allows you to CHOOSE to turn your “I should’s” into “I must, I will, I AM!”
•
You have a choice to live a life you love. You can show up and align, or you can blame and fail. I’m not saying its easy or comfortable. But the only way you are going to move from where you are to where you want to be is to take a look at the story you are telling yourself, take ownership of the role you play in your life, and start stirring the ship in the direction of aligned truth.

Ways I can support you:
1. Monthly Sound Baths (Next up: July 10, July 11, and July 31)
•
2. Private 1 on 1 coaching/ sound healing sessions
•
3. Sound Healing 101 (Gain confidence in your Sound Healing and Energy work! No experience necessary/ no instruments necessary; July 27th)
•

•
Recognize that the resources you have been asking for are there for you, and take action. Nothing changes, unless something changes. 💕

Shadow.

Shadow.

Yesterday at @modernmystic_shop I had the opportunity introduce a conversation about Shadow work.

Exploring your shadow supports us in feeling that sense of peace, wholeness, and spiritual alignment. It can lead to greater authenticity, creativity, and personal awakening. But what IS the Shadow?

The shadow is the disowned self. The things we feel shame around, the parts we don’t want to claim as being a true part of ourselves, and we repress.

If you are thinking about doing Shadow work, here are a few tips in starting the conversation at home.
1. Go in with with non judgement and compassion.
When “meeting” with your shadow you want to go in as a witness. This is an opportunity to ask “What do you have to teach me?” It’s not always easy to witness the role you play in your own life when it comes to certain situations or choices.

2. Ground.
Find a comfortable time and place that you can sit with without distraction, and set up sacred space. You may not like what you see or receive from your meeting with your shadow. Grounding can help you to stay the non judgmental witness so you can practice self acceptance.

3. Awareness is power.
Seeing the shadow requires a self-reflective mindset, which is the ability to reflect and observe our behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. Once we are aware, we can then choose to make the change we want to see in our lives. It’s your choice what to do with the information.

4. Write it down.
Writing down your experience gets it out of your body AND starts to diffuse the charge it has over you. Diffusing the change is an act of self care. So, take into consideration you may need to sit with some emotions.

If you would like to work with your shadows, a sound bath is a great way to go in for that meeting. The next sound bath is July 10th. Give me a heads up that that’s what you would like to work on, and I will instruct you. We can also do this in a 1 on 1 session. .
I look forward to seeing you soon!

How does Sound Healing Work?

How does Sound Healing Work?

This is a loaded question! Haha! But I love it!

Lets start here for today: Sound helps to facilitate shifts in our brainwave state by using entrainment. Entrainment synchronizes our fluctuating brainwaves by providing a stable frequency in which the brainwave can attune to.

By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves and it then becomes possible to “down-shift” our normal beta state (normal waking consciousness) to alpha (relaxed consciousness), and even reach theta (meditative state) and delta (sleep; where internal healing can occur). The goal of a sound healing session (usually) is to get you into the theta and delta brainwave states so your body can go into its own natural healing processes.

Depending on what you are supporting someone through in a session, you may use instruments like drums, gongs, and shakers to create this steady rhythm, however, you can also create a subtle rhythm using Quartz Crystal bowls that soothes as it is entraining.

Want to learn more about sound healing? Sound Healing 101 is coming up Saturday, July 27th and for those of you ready to dive in deep! Sound Healing Certification starts August 19th! You will want to register for either of these classes SOON! I keep the classes small for more time with instruments and conversation.✨ I look forward to seeing you in class!

Awwwww yeeeea buuudy!

Community is the glue that holds it together! Beautiful evening spent talking about Risk and ways to empower yourself when you are feeling fear.

FEAR definitely made way into the conversation for me when I decided to create Sound Apothecary (images coming soon! 🤪) I mean... overhead, inventory, set hours... 😳 As Mark RoX TioXon mentioned in the discussion, COMMUNITY is key! And it played a major role in propelling me PAST fear and into creation of my space!

Community, Compassion, Trust... what is something you currently have fear around and one small step you can do today to move forward? 💕

LOVE!

LOVE!

Wow... this bowl created a sound that you could feel move from one ear to the other ONLY when I played it for her... not for me... not any of the other times I spent with it... only for her and when SHE plays it.

They really do all have their own personalities and are calling out to their new partners in healing. Kim’s personal meditation practice and yoga students will never be the same!

The dust never settles… that’s just how I roll.

The dust never settles… that’s just how I roll.

Balance is an interesting thing. It doesn’t have to look one way or be the same as someone else’s. There are periods of time where I am “On the Grind”, while other times where there is ease and spaciousness. I just go with the ebb and I go with the flow. And when I have too much of one, I feel burned out or stagnant. Once that dust start to settle... Im back up and ready to go!

Today, I invite you to sit.
Notice where on the scale you are currently. Ebbing, or flowing.
And rest there for a moment.
Take in the details of it without judgment.
Then ask yourself, “Where can I empower myself?” or “Where can I cast more love?”

Balance is personal. It is a recipe you create on a daily basis that doesn’t have to look, taste, or sound the same day to day.

Enjoy creating your recipe for balance and I look forward to seeing you at a sound bath soon!

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!
