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.

Increase Learning Abilities with Sound Healing

Increased learning abilities are useful for anyone to have, whether it is young children who are in school or older children who are in college. It is equally useful for professionals, homemakers, retired persons, etc. In short, anyone who is living will benefit from an increase in learning abilities as it helps one develop oneself, get along better with others, and reach one’s full potential in life. Increased learning abilities are as useful for children with any learning difficulties as they are for children with average intelligence or children who are gifted. Whatever be the case, there is always room for improvement mentally and intellectually.

How Sound helps to improve one's learning?
While there are many ways in which one can increase learning abilities, one of the most effective, safest, and fastest ways is through sound healing. Sound healing is the use of specific sound frequencies that are applied to the human body to achieve specific results. Each body part resonates or vibrates to a certain frequency, which is uniquely its own. When sound healing is applied to the brain, it achieves the effect of accelerating learning abilities and reducing any learning difficulties.
The Singing bowls bring out the best in a student increasing his focus and concentration in studies and other curricular activities. It helps brain development and enhances its capacity.

Menstrual Difficulties And Sound Healing

Menstrual Difficulties And Sound Healing

Problem:
It would be very difficult to find even one woman who has not been plagued by menstrual difficulties. Starting from the first period to the very last period, spanning anywhere from three to four decades, menstrual difficulties affect women in every part of the world. These could range from mild but painful cramping, irritability in the days leading to the period (PMS), and fatigue to more serious issues like heavy bleeding, continuous bleeding, or even a total absence of periods. There are many different reasons for these problems, such as anorexia, ovarian cysts, hyperthyroidism, cervix inflammation, fibroids, hypothyroidism, vaginal infections, any changes in lifestyle, exercise, or diet, etc.

Emotional Issues behind Menstrual problems:
Women who suffer from emotional hang-ups or a feeling that they are no longer needed suffer from more menstrual difficulties than the others. The feeling of rejection bogs them down which manifest itself in the form of menstrual problems.

Significance of Sound Healing:
Sound Healing works on emotional body as well as Physical one. It helps one to release all the emotional blockages and deal with emotional issues in a better way. One of the safest and non-invasive ways of treating menstrual difficulties is sound healing. Through sound healing, the body is brought back into harmony with itself. Sound healing works on the theory that everything in the universe has a certain frequency. When this frequency is out of balance, illnesses occurs. Sound healing works to bring the harmony back by transmitting sound that belong to the same frequency of that particular body part. This could be done through the human voice (chanting, singing, toning) or through the use of an instrument such as singing bowls, tuning forks, or other electronic equipment. This is very effective in healing menstrual difficulties.

SOUND HEALING THERAPY FOR STRESS REDUCTION

Stress affects people of all ages and from all walks of life. Whether the person is retired or a professional, a homemaker or a student, a child or an elderly person, there is always stress in life caused by something or the other. Stress can cause a whole host of other problems on the physical and psychological levels, ranging from insomnia, panic attacks, trouble concentrating or remembering things, to chronic fatigue, aches and pains, and can even be the underlying cause of many illnesses. A person under stress is also likely to cause stress to those around him, which leads to a domino effect. This is why it is so important to start stress reduction techniques immediately.
 
The conventional ways for stress reduction has been by physical exercise, a nutritious and well-balanced diet, yoga, meditation, art therapy, psychotherapy, counseling, and even medication. However, there is a one modality that is safe and very effective in reducing stress. This is sound healing.

Effect of Sound Healing Therapy


Sound healing therapy is very beneficial for stress reduction. People know how impactful music can be on their moods, such as feeling sad after listening to a sad song and feeling happy after listening to an upbeat song. Sound healing therapy works on the principle that everything in the universe has a unique frequency. When this frequency is maintained, there is harmony in the being. When there is a dissonance in the frequency, stress and illness happens.
 
Sound healing therapy brings the individual frequency back into harmony through the use of music, chanting, toning, singing bowls, tuning forks, etc., and has been shown to be remarkably effective.

SOUND HEALING THERAPY FOR FROZEN SHOULDER


Description

Frozen shoulder is a very painful and debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide. There are many causes of frozen shoulder, some of which are as a result of a stroke, diabetes, a shoulder injury or surgery, etc. Frozen shoulder can also result from not exercising the shoulder enough after any shoulder problems have developed. The range of motion of the shoulder is compromised leading to pain and stiffness which results in discomfort whenever the shoulder is used. This mostly affects people in the 40 to70 age group with the majority being postmenopausal women who are afflicted by this.

Emotional Issues



It has been seen that people who are negative in attitude and treat life as a burden suffer from frozen shoulder problem. Besides physiological reasons, this psychological reason may also be underlying the frozen shoulder problem.

Effect of Sound Healing Therapy

The conventional treatments for frozen shoulder are gentle stretching, application of ice or heat, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as corticosteroid injections. Physical therapy is often suggested to improve the range of motion of the shoulder. If none of this works, then surgical intervention is suggested. Frozen shoulder, since it can be caused by surgery or injury, due to not using the shoulder after sufficiently, can be prevented if gentle stretching exercises are done post-surgery or post an injury.




Sound healing therapy is one of the holistic healing methods being used to successfully treat frozen shoulder. This is based on the theory that there is a vibratory field of energy in every life form, including human bodies. Each body and body part resonates to a certain frequency and when this goes out of balance, disease and illness result. Sound healing therapy aims to bring the body back into balance through the use of sounds that vibrate to the same resonant frequency.
