Discovering the Total Self Program - Emerging Sacred Human

10. The Healing Power of Sound

The latest scientific research on Soundwork indicates that this modality is a wonderful tool to synchronize the hemispheres of the brain, induce relaxing brainwave states such as alpha and produce the relaxation response: lower heart beat, blood pressure and deeper breathing. Besides promoting wellness, the experience of sound can be magical, mystical and creative connecting us deeply to our soul and spirit. Sound, indeed, is a spiritual path.
