In this interview, I discuss my journey from classical musician, teacher, to wellness artist and sound meditation leader.

Dr. Anita Phillips talks about the vagus nerve as being the garden of Eden inside our bodies. When activated, the vagus nerve puts our body into parasympathetic state and regulates our body and emotions. Part of the vagus nerve is activated by sound. Curated sounds and vibrations such as in sound therapy activate the vagus nerve. Listen to the reel here;

On evenings like this I walk around head up looking at another beautiful anatomy of a sunset. No one else seems to notice or care. But to me, it’s the cosmos again, for a billionth time, with another love letter. Maybe a little more orange, or yellow or with wispier shapes today, but always the message is the same. And I am reminded to embrace it. 💛💛💛

My last virtual sound bath was a success and so I’m offering another one soon!
Get your tranquility to help your mind and body reset for the holidays!

A fantastic day today hosting a mini retreat and birthday party for my friend Juanita. These women enjoyed some self care with a sound bath, a contemplative hike in nature, and made mantra bracelets! Do you have a birthday coming up? Check out this birthday special: Bring 5 friends and your sound bath is on me! Want more info on the benefits of sound healing? Visit my website at musicbliss.org

Taking time for self care is not selfish. We all need to create space to stop doing and just be. Space where we can suspend thinking and action and let out minds and bodies rest. https://linktr.ee/musicblissshift

Sound therapy is a vehicle for becoming more present and mindful.
The frequencies played on sound bowls can help your brain shift from alpha (busy mind) to delta (relaxed but present)
The process is called entrainment. Sound baths are experienced differently by different people. Some see colors, others visualize blissful scenes in nature, while some are so deeply relaxed that they fall asleep. Curious? Set up your private session or find out how you can find a group session.

Why would a professional classical musician get into sound therapy? At first I thought it was too simple to be effective. I was wrong.
Here’s the thing. #
Everyone has their preferred genre of music. I like classical music. But maybe you don’t. I want to harness the power of music to help people make emotional shifts and experience something transcendent. But,
I can write beautiful music that you may never connect with. However, sound is sound. We are vibrational beings in a vibrational world. Our bodies respond to sound naturally. And regardless of what genre of music you may prefer, the frequencies used in sound therapy will have benefits. Better sleep, more relaxation, less stress, lower blood pressure,
and getting your body into a state of rest and digest. Who doesn’t need that? Want to experience the power of sound therapy? Sign up for my Nov. 4 virtual sound bath, or book a session. Just click the Linktree in my bio for more info! ⬇️

Getting ready for this week’s Saturday Spaces workshop where we will be exploring emotions and mindset! I’ll be sharing ways to get emotionally unstuck, including sound therapy, mindfulness, breathwork, movement and some of my original music! Interested? Send me a pm!

Jacob Rock is a 19 year old with severe autism which doesn’t allow him to speak. At the age of 16, he began to use assisted technology and told his Dad that he had a 70 minute symphony in his head. With the help of a on LA based composer, the symphony was written and tonight performed by students from USC Thornton. I had the honor to attend this concert with his neurologist and the pioneer in the field of brain research and autism, Dr. Margaret Beaumann and my friend Susan Stroebel. I was left speechless, almost in tears for much of the performance. The language of music allowed this young man to express a wealth of emotions and finally break the barrier of silence that he has lived with his whole life. He had a lot to say, and for 70 minutes we all experienced life from his perspective. It was really an unforgettable experience. Here are a few of those moments.

In today’s “Saturday Spaces” workshop we focused on the topic of “Finding Our Voice, Living Our Truth.” The day consisted of a sound bath to destress, a meditation with original music by Leslie Schroerlucke, journaling, and creating artistic representations of our unique voices! To see more offerings- sound therapy, Reiki, retreats go to www.musicbliss.org

Music can help you shift emotionally. I call it a BlissShift!

Have you heard of this major study, which revealed the power of music to help shape our emotions and wellbeing?

In 2020, the British Academy of Sound Therapy released results after they tested 7,581 participants about the effects of listening to music.

The study found the optimum listening time of 13 minutes – and many benefits were reported, including ‘decreased muscle tension, negative thoughts disappearing, feeling peaceful and contented and being able to sleep better’.

Music of a slow tempo, simple melody and no lyrics was also identified as the most effective.

Benefits of Sound Therapy:
Deep Relaxation
Regulation of nervous system
Quieting the mind
Lowers blood pressure and heart rate
Reverses effects of technology to attune body to its natural frequencies
Puts the body into a healing state (theta brain waves)
Helps with Sleep disorders
Reduces Anxiety
Helps with Depression
Helps with PTSD
Reduces chronic pain
Enhances emotional, mental, spiritual well-being
Enjoy a 2 minute sound bath 👇 below!

Did you know: Ancient peoples used sound a vibration to treat physical and emotional distress. Greek physician- musicians prescribed specific melodies to help patients have emotional shifts! Music is a powerful.Music+visualization, even more powerful!
