I look forward to learning how sound can shift and support the energy in individuals and groups, and how to meet the needs of people in a group setting as each person comes in with something different. Is a group sound journey like a buffet, where each person takes from it what they want? Can individual needs be met in a group? Look forward to exploring this…. I am also intrigued to see how this journey affects me and what I notice in my self, any shift, how relaxed and peaceful I feel, will it deepen my own practice and how i am in my environment as well as my ability to listen? And will it impact my current work and how I connect to the people I see and being even more present? I look forward to discovering the answers to these questions. Im hoping it will feed my creative side and I am able to incorporate sound into my daily life, either as a practice or ritual. I was quite musical as a child, I played the harmonium from age 10-13yrs and loved to sing but then it all took a back seat when I went to high school and ‘more serious’ studies took over! Time has a way of zooming by and here I am, hoping to rekindle some of this. Though I am a little apprehensive about using my voice in sound healing, it does feel quite nerve racking! I hope I can move through this with ease and openness 🙏🏽

Just sharing my thoughts and what I experienced after listening to the video from part 4 @ demonstration of instruments of the celestial realm. I was vibrating with the sound, my tissues felt alive. There was a ripple like effect upwards like a wave particularly from my arms and hands to my upper body. It felt like layers were being lifted within my tissues, up to the surface, filtering them and then lifting off from my body. I felt tingling in my hands and arms which lasted for a while afterwards. I also found my jaw relax and my mouth naturally wanted to open. I can hold tension in my jaw (good ol’ Liver Qi stagnation!) I often find the sound of crystal singing bowls jarring and can sometimes feel a sensation in my head, like the start of a headache. However, in this video when combined with Tibetan bowls and the voice, the harshness wasn’t there and it felt peaceful and soothing. Looking forward to practicing and combining the crystal and the Tibetan bowls.
