Sound healing
Our sound baths are a group healing experience that uses sound to induce a meditative state. It’s called a bath because the sound waves and frequencies literally wash over you, cleaning away any stuck or negative energies and bringing you back to your natural state of balance. Sound baths are an almost effortless way to meditate as the sounds help to facilitate shifts in our brainwave state. By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves to downshift our normal consciousness to a meditative state making it possible for internal healing to take place. This same concept is utilized in meditation by regulating the breath, but with sound healing it’s a combination of the frequency and rhythm that influences the shift.
what to expect
At a Shift Sound Bath Meditation you can expect to hear an improvised meditative concert that is tuned to the energy of the group. Instruments such as, quartz crystal singing bowls, gongs, drums, chimes, drones, himalayan singing bowls and tuning forks are used to bring you into a state of deep relaxation where stress release, healing and insight can occur. The experience also integrates a combination of mindfulness meditations for maximum effect.

more about sound healing
We live in a universe that's in a constant state of vibration. From the movements of the planets to the beating of our heart. Every atom, cell, tissue, organ and bone in our bodies is vibrating and that vibration produces sound, whether or not the sound is audible to the human ear. This sound can effect every part of our being and is not only 'heard' through the ears but through every cell in our bodies. It makes sense then if we are all vibrating with sound that we can use it to promote health in our lives.
Through sound, we can change the rhythms of our brain waves, our heart beat and our respiration, affecting our overall health. Sound healing is the therapeutic application of these sound frequencies to a person with the intention of bringing them into a state of harmony and health by balancing the physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual aspect of their being. It works by using interval and frequency to help move the body into balance and has been utilized in various cultures around the world for thousands of years as a tool for healing. There is so much to say on this subject, but the best way to understand the power of sound is to experience it for yourself.
