Sound Healing Music Lessons

“In order to change, people need to become aware of their sensations and the way that their bodies interact with the world around them. Physical self-awareness is the first step in releasing the tyranny of the past.”
― Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

How does Music Heal?

Sound has been used for healing for thousands of years throughout all countries. Sound is a vibration. All of life exists at its core as vibrating atoms.  Instruments are able to influence beta brain wave patterns - or those associated with concentration, anxiety and flight or fight reflexes, to calmer frequencies - known as alpha, theta, and delta brain waves. ​These brain waves are associated with relaxation (Alpha), meditation (Theta) and trance-like states (Delta)

“Stressed-out people chronically feel unsafe inside their bodies: The past is alive in the form of gnawing interior discomfort. Their bodies are constantly bombarded by visceral warning signs, and, in an attempt to control these processes, they often become expert at ignoring their gut feelings and in numbing awareness of what is played out inside. They learn to hide from their selves.” (p.97)”

“The challenge of recovery is to reestablish ownership of your body and your mind — of your self. This means feeling free to know what you know and to feel what you feel without becoming overwhelmed, enraged, ashamed, or collapsed. For most people this involves (1) finding a way to become calm and focused, (2) learning to maintain that calm in response to images, thoughts, sounds, or physical sensations that remind you of the past, (3) finding a way to be fully alive in the present and engaged with the people around you, (4) not having to keep secrets from yourself, including secrets about the ways that you have managed to survive.”
