The Temple of Healing Sound
We are sound, given life. Sound is the most powerful healer, and the medicine we need now, to connect us to our ancient past and our unimaginable future.
Sound healing has deep roots. There are hieroglyphs from Egypt showing sound healing both ceremonially and as a healing practice. There are ancient caves and underground structures that are “tuned” to specific frequencies, often 111Hz, which is spectacularly effective for inducing the deeply relaxed Theta brainwave state needed to bring about healing miracles.
Our ancestors knew these things, and used them. Sound healing is mentioned more than once in the Christian Bible. First Nations people in the US and Canada have sung songs for healing for thousands of years, too. This is something we have felt, known and needed for as long as we’ve been human.
But of course, we forgot.
Sound healing is becoming more widely known and accepted in the US in recent years. As a complementary therapy, it is used to treat pain, side-effects of chemotherapy, depression, anxiety, and to speed post-surgical recovery times. As a wellness strategy, it is helping healthy people thrive, letting insomniacs rest, keeping busy executives feeling calm and relaxed, and helping people living in stress have more better days than bad. It’s also incredibly effective in helping people with PTSD stay stable and balanced.
It’s the tune up that keeps on tuning.
No wonder we wanted to celebrate Sound Healing with its own sacred space.
Stay tuned here for updates! The Temple of Healing Sound is a work in progress, and we are getting closer than we ever imagined possible to finding a space that will allow us to start building it for real.
The Spirit of the Temple has been consulted and is excited about the transition. (Sometimes you can hear the Spirit humming during a session. It’s a low rumble that can’t be explained by anything else, very relaxing and soothing. Almost like a purr. So maybe the Spirit of the Temple is a cat. We just don’t know for sure.)
So please do come back often and check our progress. As soon as we find a home we will be posting updates here, including when we get our “Fauci Ouchies” so that we’re safe to be around!
News and Updates
Progress is happening fast! Carpet was shampoo’d – twice. Paint happened. Curtains have been made and will go up today(TODAY!!!). Shelves have been installed.
New light fixture was installed in the healing room (OH THANK THE GODS!) and voila, shelves are bedecked with lights and graced with sound healing instruments! It’s a hallelujah day! The table is set up, and the healing room is ready to go!
We’ll get started on the reception/retail area next week. I need a recovery day! Our pump organ and Welsh dresser will be coming in the next few days, and then we will be busy putting it all together.
