If you are looking for a way to relax and improve your overall well-being, we encourage you to try sound bath meditation.
Everything is vibration. From the bustling sounds of cities to the more subtle, silent thoughts that fill our minds, vibrational frequencies are all around us – in fact, they are a part of us. Every sound, thought, and emotion carries a vibrational force and electrical signaling that is powerful enough to stimulate cells in the body and affect matter. Sound alone has the power to both create ease & relaxation, as well as alarm & agitation, and when used with intention, sound can be a powerful catalyst for change. Through the rhythmic stimulation of cells, mental, physical, and emotional regulation and recalibration can occur.
One of the best ways to experience the potentially healing benefits of this practice is through a firsthand, in-person experience. Early neuroscience research explains that at a physical level, sound vibrational healing is believed to work through the perceived resonance response and sensing of tactile receptors in the outer skin, inner skin, and deeper tissues. This response allows various processes within the body, such as cellular waste transport, metabolism, and blood circulation, to be increased. Additionally, when looking at the brain, scientists have hypothesized that sound-based vibration may “increase the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and the removal of metabolic waste” to support the healthy functioning of the central nervous system (Karkkainen & Mitsui, 2006).
