Take a deep breath!

Sound is a manifestation of breath, and breath is the most fundamental aspect of life. Breathing is much more than a mechanical reflex for oxygen intake; it is the basis for all our cellular functions, our energetic well-being, even our emotional health.  I have come to realize that sound is both a manifestation of breath and a means to revitalize it, with far reaching positive consequences for people’s well-being and recovery.

Breathing holds a prime importance in yoga. Yoga is a 3000 years old discipline whose goal is to create a sense of harmony with the universe by integrating the mind, body and spirit.  The word yoga means ‘union’ and its three part practise of posture, breath work and meditation is designed to take us beyond transitory concerns and pleasures ego to discovery and awareness of oneself. Pranayama is the Vedic science of controlling the breath in order to direct Prana (Life force) and thereby balance both body and mind. There is a huge difference in between shallow chest breathing- the result of years of conditioning, stress, trauma, and poor habits, and deep abdominal breathing, the kind taught and practised in yogic traditions.

In shallow breathing, the diaphragm does not move downward sufficiently, so that the lungs never fully expand into the abdomen.  As a result, the lower portion of the lungs, which are filled with small blood vessels that carry oxygen to our cells, hardly receive oxygen. In an effort to compensate for this inadequate oxygen intake, our heart rate and blood pressure increases, as our cardiovascular system works overtime. By contrast, in deep abdominal breathing allows ample room for the bottom portion the lungs fill up with oxygen. The result is more than adequate oxygen exchange.

Shallow breathing is also evidence that the body is a permanent state of ‘fight or flight’- the stress response to external danger or anxiety provoking events. During fight or flight, which is a natural mind-body reaction to stress, the sympathetic nervous system goes into overdrive; our adrenal gland pump out stress hormones such as adrenaline; the musculoskeletal system goes out into a stiff state of preparedness; heart rate and blood pressure becomes elevated.

When we are continually stressed out, our mind and body become frozen in  a chronic state of fight or flight; we consistently react as if we are surrounded by a pack of wild animals, an evolutionary legacy of our prehistoric ancestors. The shallow breathing that results causes a particular vicious cycle because the body reacts as if it is oxygen starved, which to a certain extent is the case. The body’s response to oxygen deprivation which is to pump even more stress hormones, only adds to our anxiety, and the cycle is continued. This catapults the rest of our physiological systems out of balance, including other hormones, neurotransmitters, neuropeptides and the immune cells and substances they help to regulate.

The link between breathing and good health is more than just theoretical: studies have directly associated respiratory capacity with longevity. On the negative side, the famous Framingham health study found that lower respiratory capacity is directly associated with higher death rates from heart diseases. Moreover, a 13 years long study conducted in Australia demonstrated the respiratory capacity was a more significant factor than tobacco use, cholesterol level, and insulin metabolism in determining people’s longevity. The oxygen link extends to cancer as well; Nobel prize winner Otto Warburg published landmark studies in the 1960s showing that cancer cells thrive in an environment starved of oxygen.

Singing bowls prove to be an excellent tool which sends a person into a meditative state and proving the body to breathe in deeply to the full capacity of the lungs. Through the mechanism of entertainment of brain and cells with the use of singing bowls, to open and deepen the breath and restore our body to a state of harmony, reunite our spirit with our essence.

Effects of Sound on human body

Sound Healing works on the principle that the Sound & vibrations of the particular frequency enter our body and bring about the healing process whether it may Physical, Emotional or Mental ailment. This process of healing made us very curious about the effects of Sound on the Human body and mind. We began to read about it a lot and stumbled upon the following researches and found it very interesting:

  •         Dr. Jeffery Thompson, who teaches at the California Institute for Human Science and directs his own Centre for Neuro-Acoustic research, has undertaken pioneering studies of the physical effects of the Singing bowls and other sound frequencies. Thompson has even shown that the singing bowls produce a sound comparable in frequency and tone to the sound produced by the rings of Uranus, emanations measured with state of the art instruments by NASA scientists. Thompson has translated his research into powerful treatment for learning disabilities and a wide range of physical disorders.
  •         According to Dr. David Simon, Medical Director of Neurological Services at Sharp Cabrillo Hospital in San Diego, California, and Medical Director of the Chopra centre for Well-being, healing chants and music have measurable physiological effects. Simon points out that chants are chemically metabolized into endogenous opiates that are both internal painkillers as well as healing agents in the body.
  •         Helen Bonny, a music therapist and researcher at the Maryland Psychiatric Institute, created a process she called Guided Imagery and Music, which assist patients to enter into a state of deep relaxation wherein they articulate their sensations, thoughts and feelings.
  •        Mark Rider, Ph. D., a research psychologist affiliated with Southern Methodist University, has conducted the largest series of studies to date on the powerful positive influence of music, often combined with imagery on the protective cells of the immune system, which fight invading pathogens and perform the task of regenerating injured tissue.

The above are just a few of the findings that occurred to us as the interesting one. Scientifics researches have proved that sound and vibration can help a person in curing many emotional, physical or mental problems, promoting the complete well-being of a person.

Boost your self-confidence with Sound Healing

It has been seen that the kids who are always put down by their parents, siblings, family members or friends suffer from the problem of under confidence. If they are constantly belittled, they may suffer from the problem of lack of confidence that may later be seen in their performance. A person will face the following possible problems in case of low self-confidence:
  •         Less happiness and enjoyment in life
  •         A less worthwhile and meaningful life.
  •         Self-destructive tendencies.
  •        Less success in life.
  •         More stress and anxiety.
  •        Less enjoyable social interactions
  •         Social withdrawal.
  •         Anxiety and emotional turmoil.
  •        Lack of social skills and self confidence.
  •         Less social conformity.
  •         Eating disorders.
  •         Inability to accept compliments.
  •         Accentuating the negative.

How does Sound Healing help?

Sound is an excellent tool for the building the self-confidence in a person. Sound and vibrations emitted by the singing bowls helps the brain overcome its negative patterns and fears by helping the neurological system to release estrogens and other important hormones. Lack of estrogens results in low self-esteem. If the energies in root and solar plexus chakra are not balanced, we suffer from low self-confidence. With the help of chakra healing we balance these energies. This also helps in releasing any past feelings that leads t low self confidence.

Easy Recovery from Past Traumas

Past traumas can wreak havoc on the physical and psychological well-being of a person. Some of the aftermaths of past traumas could be memories that are disturbing, frequent nightmares, panic attacks, a constant low-grade anxiety, inability to trust others, not feeling any emotions intensely, etc. Some of the different ways that past traumas are treated include counselling, psychotherapy, regular physical exercise, meditation, mindfulness, eating a well-balanced diet, relaxation techniques, deep breathing exercises, yoga, as well as getting a restful sleep at night.

Traumas can be caused due to a variety of reasons, such as a natural disaster, accidents, a violent attack such as a mugging, rape, burglary at home, etc. It can also be caused by chronic stress from a life-threatening illness, living in a crime-infested place and being bombarded with threats every day. Traumas can also be caused in the aftermath of surgeries, especially for very young children. It can also happen due to the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or any other experience that has been very traumatic to the individual.

Significance of Sound Healing


One of the most effective ways to treat past traumas are through sound healing. Sound works on both emotional as well as the Physical body of a person. There are special bowls of specific frequency vibrations designed to work directly on the emotional body of a person. These bowls remove all the blockages in a person's emotions, helping him to recover from any past trauma he or she has. The aim of the healer is take the trauma away from its roots to help the person move on with his or her life. Sound healing works on the principle that everything in the universe reverberates to a certain frequency. When this frequency is in balance, there is health and vice versa. By tuning a person to a certain frequency, past traumas can be healed. This helps to bring the individual back to balance by removing all traces of past traumas from the system.
