Importance of Proper Training and Skilled Teachers

​

As Sound Therapy, Sound Baths, and Meditation become more popular, it is vital that participants seek teachers who have  proper training.  Sound therapy and meditation must be facilitated by a professional and is not a practice just anyone can teach.

 

Would you get surgery from someone who wasn't a skilled doctor? Would you seek therapy from someone who didn't go to school for psychology? Would you have someone invest your money who didn't know about finance? Would you suddenly be able to pick up a guitar and play after you went to a Taylor Swift concert? The answer is, no.  Sound Therapy and Meditation is no different.
 

Sound healing therapy uses aspects of sound and music to improve physical and emotional health and well-being and must be done with a TRAINED practitioner. Trained practitioners use rich audible tones and work with invisible frequencies and our bodies resonate with those frequencies, which can have deep effects on our breath, our blood flow, our cellular movement, our biorhythms, our thoughts, and our brain waves.
 

Without a professional facilitating the session, the experience can, in fact, have negative effects on your mind and body.  I simply say this because too often I have students come to me who had a negative experience with a non-professional and now feel further anxious, depressed and overall unwell.

​

All sound therapists will have information on their training and background. Please ask questions and be mindful of those you elect to receive energy healing from.
