AnandaSound - quantum healing

What do a toothbrush, a skin treatment and crowd control have in common? Sound waves. Sound is in the products that are all around us, affecting our natural sonic balance and our well being. Sound surrounds us, enfolds us, permeates our bodies, infuses our minds and ignites our spirits. Sound can move us physically as easily as it can move our hearts. Sound is our constant companion. Even before we are born, at 12 weeks deeply enfolded in our mother's womb, we start to hear a symphony of sound. Rhythm, melody, harmony are a part of our song as we join the earth.

A physical body is formed by the vibrations and rhythms of atoms in concert with the life that surrounds us. All the fundamentals of life including physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health, depend upon the frequency of vibrations. The atoms and molecules of the Universe are in a constant dance of movement creating a very musical existence. You will find that your sound is very much a part of that song. Your breath, your heart beat, your sighs and laughter and the words you speak, all of the pulses and movements of the atoms and molecules that are you, are dancing in rhythm to the movement of the current moment. All sensations, pleasurable and painful, are caused by fluctuations in those frequencies.

You can speak in sound what you cannot say in words. Encompassing the natural and spiritual principles of life, sound can moderate our passions and shatter the blocked energy around us, reduce stress, provide comfort, create joy and wonder, bringing us into harmony with the world that surrounds us. The most powerful and sensitive of all sounds in the world is the human voice because it resonates our feelings and soul with the intention put into it. It has overtones, textures, colours, dynamics, and emotions creating an artistic collage of meaning and effect.

Sound is vibratory, making it an effective tool to create change. Making intentional sound using our voices, drums and other simple instruments to create balancing sound waves can bring us to healing, transforming and celebration. Sound reduces stress, releases anxiety, enhances mood, opens communication and connects us with the natural rhythms of life. It is an excellent way to soften boundaries and build co-operation, making it a wonderful relationship enhancing tool.
