Sound healing
I offer private and group Sound Healing at two local studios. Sessions last 60 minutes, and participants typically experience this in a supported supine position. Props such as bolsters, blankets, and pillows will help you feel wrapped and secure. I will anchor the session with Himalayan singing bowls and use Koshi wind chimes, Hand Drum, Tuning Forks, or Crystal Triangle as my intuition dictates. You will be surrounded by instruments and enveloped in a symphony of sound. When appropriate, bowls will be placed directly on your body to feel an even deeper vibration. I like to incorporate elements of nature - so you will smell either fresh flowers or essential oils to heighten the sensory experience. The session will allow you to relax and disconnect from the noise of daily life. Each session is unique because I design it around your specific needs. We will talk briefly before the session, and I will use my Reiki training, intuition, the sounds of the bowls (yes, they change in response to your energy), and your breathing to create a multi-faceted sensory experience to calm and relax you.
Benefits of Sound
Everything in the universe is in constant vibration, including the human body. You have a personal pitch – a fundamental frequency that is uniquely your own. When the vibrations of our physical and spiritual bodies are out of harmony, we can experience dis-ease. Sound vibration has been a reliable way of connecting to the universe's energy for much of humanity’s history. The soothing sounds and vibrations of Himalayan singing bowls are an ancient practice that engages the parasympathetic nervous system to help tone and return your energy centers into a harmonious state. When the metal bowls are struck, electrons become activated and create an electromagnetic wave that can be felt. The vibrations resonate deep within the body to project the correct healing frequency at the cellular level, connecting you to the harmony within and restoring your perfect pitch. The sound of the bowls is pure and pleasant and lulls you into a relaxed meditative state. Benefits include reducing stress and anxiety, releasing muscle tension, decreased headaches, improved sleep, and better concentration. Best of all, you emerge feeling profoundly relaxed and refreshed.
“Music has touched the human soul across all boundaries of time, space, and genre… Perhaps, in its vibratory nature, music opens us to a greater appreciation of our essential connectedness of the cosmos, our oneness with all that is.”
~ Balfour M. Mount
“I have been a client of Sherri's for years now, and she has been integral in my self-care practice. She has a very grounding presence and an intuitive way about her that you will experience when you work with her. I am grateful for the work she does and look forward to being a client of hers for years to come.”
