Is more of the same what you want?

Sometimes it’s good to stay the course. But if the course is not healthy, no longer in alignment, or keeps bringing you pain… it may be time to change directions.
Last chance to sign up for Wednesday's Sound Journey before prices go up!
Last chance to sign up for Wednesday’s Sound Journey before prices go up! Join me for a sound bath experience connecting to your inner wisdom, ground down into your being, and to align and embody your truth!
This is NOT a traditional SoundEmbrace Sound Bath Session. This will be intense. This coming session on Wednesday, August 18, called Sound Journey, is a lot different for my regulars in that the intention is to support participants in moving stuck emotions or energy that may be stagnant due to fear and anxiety. This can be uncomfortable for some people as the main instruments used in the facilitation are gongs, hand drum, and shakers.
This session is more of an esoteric sound bath, and I will be incorporating voice into the session, my language around the session will be geared more to “feeling energy and connecting with your guides.”
Crystal bowls will be used in the session to calm the nervous system after the intensity that may be felt due to the types of rhythm and instruments used to facilitate the session.
For some this will be cathartic. Some will fall alseep (believe it of not!) but it may also bring up some unexpected emotions, thoughts, and visions.
Check out www.SoundEmbrace.com to sign up! And we will be at The Full Circle Studio ATL Don't forget to sign up with a friend. It will be interesting to hear how your experiences differ!

How do you prove something that is over thousands and thousands of years old?
How do you prove something that is over thousands and thousands of years old?
THAT my friend is what I (and many others!) are working so hard to do everyday in Sound Healing!
Sound as a therapy is an ancient practice. What I do for you in the SoundEmbrace Sound Healing Certification Program is bridge the gap between these ancient practices and philosophies with Scientific research and theory.
You’ll get the practical and you will get the metaphysical. You need both to tap into the magnitude of power in which this work has to transform lives, and move this work forward in the world.
Just one more week before we begin level one of the Sound Healing certification program, which is open to all levels of experience.

Quote by Dr. Richard Gerber
"Sound therapy is one of the prototypical vibrational healing modalities. Sound produces measurable vibratory feelings throughout the body, depending upon the frequency and amplitude of the sound used. There have been a wide variety of sound healing developments over the last ten to twenty years. Certain sounds most likely have a healing influence upon the body because they influence the geometric patterns and organization of cells and living systems. " -Dr. Richard Gerber

"We know that sounds are stimulating and we also have the technology to be able, in fact, to recharge people with them." - Alfred Tomatis

So… I am offering a different kind of sound bath session.
Wednesday, August 18th 7pm EST, offered in person and virtually, join me for a session meant to make you feel, move energy, and possibly make you become really uncomfortable!
And good! It’s about time!
What change do you want to bring about?
Where are you holding yourself back?
What are the limiting beliefs that are keeping you small?
What shame are you carrying?
What are the biases, old patterns and programming you are clinging onto for dear life?
Fear, greed, deceit, hate, prejudice, anger are all waiting for you to answer to the questions above so they can heal.
First comes awareness. Then acceptance. This leads to making new empowered decisions that not only lead you to healing… but the healing of your community and beyond.
The medicine for the kind of change we want to see in ourselves and the world is not going to be easy, pretty, or painless. If you want to make a change, you will most likely have to do something you have never done.
Otherwise… you’re just scrolling.
If you are ready to make a change, and to be THE CHANGE, I am here. You can sign up for this Sound Journey, or for Sound Healing Classes and Certification Program by clicking the link in my bio.

A review of ten studies and over 500 participants found...
"A review of ten studies and over 500 participants found that music also uses acute or chronic sleep disorders like insomnia.
Not only did people report feeling that their sleep was improved, but polysomnography testing showed that people who listened to music had longer REM sleep. REM sleep is a restorative stage of sleep linked to psychological and emotional well-being."

History is Not Made by Following the Rules
“History is not made by following the rules.” - said some person who is not me.
Sound healing was something I kind of just… fell into! Before sound healing, I wouldn’t have called myself spiritual, I would not have shared any experiences of energy, and I definitely would not have thought I would be able to make the impact I am by doing this work.
I was “suppose” to join the army!
I went to art school for photography, instead.
I was “suppose” to become a commercial photographer… I was in the industry for 11 years, got really sick, and then through my healing found sound therapy.
There are many “I am suppose to” experiences in our lives, but does that “suppose to” align with who you really are? Or want to be? Where you want to live? What you want to do? Or who you actually love!?!
I think where we can make the most impact in changing the world is actually to start by becoming curious about ourselves.
Am I happy?
Do I feel fulfilled?
Do I have fear about something?
Are my thoughts loving?
What are my biases?
What am I triggered by?
Do I feel enough, worthy, and loved?
Do I feel desirable?
Am I healthy?
WE CAN NOT follow the “rules” our past has placed on us for happiness, peace, and love!
You take control over your happiness and well-being, by becoming curious about where you are mentality , emotionally, physically, and spiritually. That ripples put into your decision making. Your love making. Your peace making. And we would all do this! We will heal the world together. We make history.

Part of the power of these experiences is that we not only hear through our ears, we "hear" through our whole body! And in Sound Healing we create a sound environment that changes the stimuli received. POWERFUL! www.SoundEmbrace.com

5 BIG Mistakes Sound Healers Make!
It's really challenging for me to go to someone else’s sound bath. I want to let my guard down and be vulnerable to the experience, but the fact is, not everyone doing this work has taken the time to learn how sound affects the body. Here are a few mistakes I see/hear often:
Mistake #1
The session is way too loud.
Loud sessions can mean a few things: the facilitator doesn’t know how to handle or manipulate the volume their bowls/instruments, they think that it needs to be loud for people to “feel it”, they don’t realize where the sound is coming from with a crystal bowl, or they are playing for themselves. YOU CAN CAUSE HARM by playing too loud. LOUDER DOES NOT = BETTER when it comes to Sound Healing. We don't just hear with our ears, we take in the sound through our body.
Mistake #2
Too many instruments or combinations.
You don’t need to play a lot of instruments to create the outcomes you want in a Sound Healing Session. Playing too many instruments can actually cause anxiety, even or trigger a traumatic regression. What is your intention for the session? Do you know how to calm the nervous system after you have created an intensity to your session?
Mistake #3
Performer versus Facilitator.
Know when you are in the performative role, and know when you are in the facilitator role. A facilitator is watching their groups for physical and psychic cues on how/when to make shifts in facilitation.
Mistake #4
No clear intention.
No clear intention breads distrust and confusion amongst your group. A lot of times when we hold space, we don't know the backgrounds of our guests. Communicating a clear intention for the group will attract the people who are a match for that session. It will also support you in knowing what instruments to lead with, and what language you are using to support the intention.
Mistake #5
Little to no guidance into a session or out of a session.
The beginning and the end of a session is incredibly important. This is where we gain trust from out participants. If you don’t know the intention of your session, you are not going to know what type of lead in you will need to adequately prepare them for the session, and you certainly won’t know what type of grounding will be needed.
I want you to succeed in this work.
I need you to succeed in this work.
Sign up for a Sound Healing Certification Program, or SEE1 class to at least get some basic knowledge. I have classes coming up August 22 that will support you in learning how to avoid making the mistakes above. Lets accelerate the growth of this powerful tool and industry. Fire can harm, but it can also do so much good!

It’s no longer a “WOO” thing to say.
It’s no longer a “WOO” thing to say.
As more and more scientists, and doctors study the mind-body connection, we know without a shadow of a doubt! that the body is connected to our mind.
When we feel tension or discomfort in our bodies, there’s something happening on a deeper level. We may be holding something energetically or emotionally that has manifested physically.
Wednesday, August 18 join me in person at @fullcircleatl new location for what may be an intense sound bath experience. Intense in the way, that this facilitation’s intention is to move this energy, and perhaps release stuck emotions in the body that are keeping you in monotonous feedback loop.
Those of you in the SoundEmbrace membership, grab your headphones, and get cozy! You can tune in virtually for free!

Sound Healing takes us beyond the illusion of reality and helps us connect to truth. How are you using sound or music to create a deeper connection with Self?
