Music as medicine: The therapeutic potential of sound 19/06/2024

✨ An interesting article which starts to address the cross-over between music for health and wellbeing and sound healing. Reflecting on the growing research in music for health, parallels are drawn with the impacts of therapeutic sound healing ✨

For us, working with both music and sound in our varied careers (running the charity as well as Sounds Like Healing), we have been blending and merging these approaches for a few years and seen very positive impacts πŸ’œ

Our unique approach is research and evidence based and we adapt this depending on which context we are working in. It’s great to see more articles like this which can help us to advocate more widely ☺️

πŸ™πŸΌ Sharing this post again with some tips on what to look for in sound bath experiences and practitioners πŸ™πŸΌ

Our unique and holistic approach is something that is often commented on by participants in our group and individual sessions.

As Sound Healing is growing in popularity, we thought we would explore some of the factors which contribute to a high quality Sound Bath experience and offer some top tips on what to look for:

✨1. Find out where the practitioner has trained - was it an in-depth course over a period of time, or have they completed a short online course - or even had no training at all.

πŸ’œWe have trained with Sound Healing Academy International in their unique integral sound healing approach. This is in-depth training and development for practitioners. Jane is certified in one to one and group sound healing and Emily is a qualified Reiki and Massage practitioner, has a Masters in Voice/Singing for Health and Well-being and is Research and Development Manager for the Sound Healing Academy International - developing courses on a global level. Emily and Jane are Trauma and Mental Health Informed practitioners and trainers.

✨2. Is the venue appropriate and suitable for relaxation and feeling safe? - sometimes sound baths are taking place in spaces which may have external noises, are cold or lack any comfort. This will impact on your overall experience.

πŸ’œ We are lucky to have a beautiful intimate space at The Meadow Healing Centre, Lostwithiel which is warm and comfortable, has plenty of parking and other than an occasional train, limited external noise. When we work in other locations, finding an appropriate space is vital for us.

✨ 3. Authentic testimonials - look for comments and recommendations from people which are authentic and from the people themselves.

πŸ’œ We aren't very good at recording/capturing testimonials and then publishing them! But we do have lots of positive comments on our social media, which we are very grateful for 🫢

✨ 4. Sound can be very powerful and bring things to the surface. This can be quite scary and unexpected, so do look out for practitioners who can support you with that and prepare you for the potential impacts (healing response).

NOTE: you should not feel extremely unwell after a sound bath and if you do, this may be because the practitioner/therapist has done too much in the session or is lacking in experience/training.

πŸ’œ Healing responses can vary - and we always alert people to this possibility and offer some recommendations and advice for after-care. On the whole, people report positive impacts such as a good night sleep, reduced pain levels and feeling less anxious. In a group sound bath, the intention is to offer a very gentle experience.

✨ 5. Contraindications and precautions - it is important for sound practitioners to know if there any health conditions/concerns to consider and this might be part of the booking process. There are some conditions which it is advisable to not engage in sound healing.

πŸ’œ We have an online booking form which asks for some health details. We will have a discussion with anyone who we feel we need to be cautious with or advise them not to attend. Seeking additional guidance from a medical professional is sometimes advisable.

We hope this helps you in understanding some of the practice of sound healing, which is currently an unregulated profession and what to look for in a sound bath experience 🩷

β€œThe Mantra chanting has had a positive impact on the breathlessness that was the indicator for some of my health issues. I’m now trying to make a conscious effort to notice if I am shallow breathing & trying to make sure I exhale all the breath and if some anxiety does start to creep in then I know I now have tools so that it doesn’t take control.” (Lucy)

"Meeting Emily and Jane at Sounds Like Healing is one of the best things that has happened to me. I regularly attend their Sound and Reiki sessions which are so relaxing and deeply healing.

They have created a safe space at The Meadow which feels welcoming and supportive and they make you feel at ease."

Can a Sound Bath Wash Away Your Worries? 30/04/2024

✨ There is growing evidence to suggest that sound healing can promote health and wellbeing - although we must approach this with caution…

- the training, skills and experience of the practitioner is fundamental to the effectiveness of sound

- the instruments and how they are used can vary widely - and many instruments can be underestimated

- everyone is individual and complex, and therefore we cannot say that what works for one will work for another

✨ We are trained in an integral sound healing approach, are trauma and mental health informed and are experienced practitioners and facilitators.

✨ Our intention is to provide safe, gentle and responsive experiences.

We invite you to join us for a session - we work mainly in Cornwall and Kent πŸ™πŸΌ

✨ We’ve come to the end of our recent 4 week Mantra course… it’s been so much more than Mantra! ✨

Connecting, relaxing, energising, learning, co-creating, breathing, chanting, moving, drumming, laughing, listening, clearing, tuning in, meditating, releasing, grounding, harmonising ❀️

Tonight was a focus on the Root Chakra - nourishing energy in our connection to the earth - having trust that with strong foundations, we can flow and stay rooted 🌱

So Hum - I Am ❀️

Especially powerful as we celebrate new beginnings under the Pink full moon πŸ’—πŸŒ•
