We live in a chaotic world of activity, noise, responsibilities, and pressure. Research has long-ago shown how stress negatively impacts the body. It’s not a question of if, but one of how much. For some, meditation in its many forms has been the answer to finding relaxation. One of those forms incorporates the use of sound as a vehicle to assist in getting into and staying in a meditative state. At Sound Bath Chicago IL, a sound is successfully applied like a salve and performs as a powerful healer.
What Is a Sound Bath?
When you think of a bath, you imagine yourself immersed in water, sometimes bubbles, most often it’s warm and generally soothing. The same can be imagined for sound – it can feel as though it is washing over you, can make you feel warm and is generally thought to be soothing when used in meditation. For those that have trouble “switching off” their brains, turning away from the “to-do” list that is forever lurking in the shadows, the sound has been found to be the perfect tool on which to focus.
Whether in a private or a group session, Sound Bath Chicago IL uses quartz crystal bowls and gongs to restore the body’s balance. Those that regularly practice meditation through sound believe that the sound waves help to restore harmony to the body, the mind and spirit.
Could Sound be the Missing Link?
Sound as a healer has been used for centuries. The Greeks, those in the Far East, Egypt, Australia and other cultures have long embraced the power of sound. More recent research has suggested that sound can be helpful in learning, helping the brain to retain more information. At one time or another, you have no doubt experienced a powerful reaction to sound – tears, laughter, an “ache”. For so many that have come to Sound Bath Chicago IL, the sound has become the medium through which they experience relaxation, a feeling of calm and wellbeing – a sense of wholeness that they had never experienced before.
