We certainly all know that music affects us on many levels. It is as simple as remembering our teenage years or the way our eyes glaze as if seeing a long lost lover as a sweet and nostalgic piece is played.

Sound Healing Wisdom Based in Tradition…

Two and a half thousand years ago the famous Greek philosopher Pythagoras utilized sound as a form of medicine treating a variety of ailments and we can trace this idea back further and outward across continents, cultures and ages right into something we know in our hearts yet cannot find the sufficient words to speak its Truth.

As cutting edge as this modality might seem, there is nothing new about Sound Healing and its Power to pierce the veil of thoughts and allow us to perceive the source of where all sound is springing from.

Exploration of several types of yoga during your Sound Healing Training Online…

Nāda Yoga (नादयोग)

Nada Yoga is an ancient Indian metaphysical system. It is equally a philosophical system, a medicine, and a form of yoga. The system's theoretical and practical aspects are based on the premise that the entire cosmos and all that exists in the cosmos, including human beings, consists of sound vibrations, called nāda. (source: Wikipedia)

Bhakti Yoga (भक्तियोग)

The root Bhaj, which means “to adore, to devote or worship God.” Bhakti Yoga has been called “love for love's sake” and “union through love and devotion.” Bhakti is uniting of the individualized consciousness with the Universal through active surrender.

Mantra Yoga (मंत्रयोग)

Mantra Yoga comes from the root Man or Manas meaning mind and instinct and Tra, a tool or instrument to transcend or liberate the mind from itself. Mantras are used to awaken the Self and deepen the meditative aspects of a physical yoga practice. Mantra yoga is a meditation tool meant to engage the mind through focusing on sound, duration and number of repetitions (japa) as a means to get closer to the divinity within, creating positive vibrations that benefit both the one who chants and the one who listens.

6965_genevievelocas 335_1500x1000.jpg

"I didn’t know the power of my own voice until the past few weeks in Sound Ceremony with Jaya and Saraswati. I had intended to learn how to host sound baths and learn more about using the instruments, mantras, and kirtan in my yoga classes and DJ sets, but I hadn’t expected that I would be singing so much and building the confidence to share my voice so freely." — Anna

 

“Intention + Vibration = Healing! Journeying through the Sound Ceremony Course has gifted me with me a strong foundation of tools/ practices/ discussions and deepened experiential understanding of explorations that I had already innately and intuitively woven throughout my life: deep listening, space-holding, sacred sound, song, and devotional offerings. I appreciated the diversity of practices we explored, the depth of understanding with which they were presented, and the creative curiosity that unfolded! This course was transformational in helping me to allow the dove in my heart to sing freely, in the support of sound sangha (community). I felt supported and held throughout, but not coddled. There was spaciousness to step into my own intuitive process of co-creation. Looking forward to continuing this work.” — Stephanie K.
