Music and Sound can reach into aspects of our psyche that we may not have a clue even exist. Be open to all possibilities. You can never know what may transpire until you have tried.
~Jonathan Goldman
Quite simply, Sound Healing uses the frequency of sound to resonate and interact with your body in a non invasive and gentle way. The frequency and vibration of the sound and the intention that you hold within your mind can restore deeper harmony to your body and mind. It brings you to a place of rest, calmness and peace. We now know that Sound is the language of our cells, so even being immersed in live sound for 20 minutes allows your cells, bones, tissues and organs to renew and regenerate.
The vibration of sound can easily move through water and since our bodies are approximately 70% liquid, the sound waves can resonate within your body and spread into your inner spaces that cannot be reached through physical contact. Since we are all unique vibratory beings, different frequencies and sounds impact on each individual in different ways.
The Biological and Healing mechanisms of Sound and Music is now becoming known as Music Medicine.
MUSIC AS MEDICINE
Its also a multilayered blend of science, body wisdom, consciousness, intention and physiology.
Melatonin release: Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain. It also controls the body’s night and day cycles. It is considered as an antioxidant that can boost the immune system and prevent ageing and cancer. Too little melatonin can lead to sleep problems, depression and other mental illnesses.
Oxytocin production: Oxytocin is a peptide hormone produced in the hypothalamus. It plays a role in social bonding, reproduction, childbirth, and the period after birth.
Nitric Oxide is produced in the paranasal sinus cavities and lungs. The role of Nitric oxide includes reducing blood pressure, reduces inflammation, increases cerebral blood flow, oxygenates the brain, helps prevent thrombic events, reduces chronic obstructive airway disease, promotes wound healing and acts as a pain mediator.
Vagus Nerve stimulation increase flexibility, strength, stamina, reduce inflammation, alleviate migraines. Stimulating this nerve also leads to better mental health — it helps us with stress reduction, reduces anxiety and worry, it allows us to tap into a calm state, and even improved focus.
Brain Wave Entrainment: Is related to the consciousness state of a person. during a Sound Healing experience many people reach the Alpha or Theta brain wave states allowing deeper healing and relaxation.
Whole Body Cell Rejuvenation: as our bodies absorb more oxygen, our blood cells become revitalised and turn a scarlet red colour. This oxygen binding in red blood cells empowers the protein repair mechanism in the body.
In the Divine Healing work I have done it says that Sound becomes a bridge to your SOUL .

So what happens in a Sound Healing?
Using low frequency instruments such as the Gong, Harp, Tibetan Singing Bowls, Medicine Drum, Native American Flute, Chimes, Rattle, Voice and a range of other instruments, we use the formula of Jonathan Goldman that Intention + Sound equals healing.
We always begin with Intention since your intention creates and directs the energy for your session.
The instruments are placed on and around your body. These are used to create gentle and restorative sounds that will gently resonate and vibrate throughout your body. Since the cells of your body know which frequencies it needs, we use wideband instruments, so that each cell can be nourished with the frequencies it needs.
restore and heal
As your mind and body relax, the natural intelligence of your body will direct the sound vibration to where it is needed most. It will restore your body’s natural ability to heal through sound. These audible sound vibrations can reduce symptoms, invoke relaxation, alleviate stress and restore greater sense well-being in your body and mind.
Silence
"To enable this restoration, sounds opposite polarity – silence, is used. We honour the power of silence after each sound experience. Silence allows the sound to penetrate down into the physical body, making shifts and changes on molecular levels, affecting our cells, our DNA – everything that is physical. Silence also enables the frequency shifts in our subtle body – creating space for the sound to permeate our chakras, our auras and all our subtle bodies." ~ Jonathan Goldman
Harmony
You will leave feeling calm, refreshed and peaceful as your body aligns to its natural rhythm. Imagine your body as an orchestra and each internal instrument is aligned and in perfect harmony with its team. You are the conductor.
Group Sound Bath
Anne-Marie and Uncle Barney regularly hold Sound Baths in the Riverland for both community and private events. They have been doing this since October 2017.
In a group environment, immerse yourself in a field of magical sounds. Instruments used for healing in ancient times are now being remembered in our new age of living.
From bells, chimes and gongs from Tibet to the Native American Medicine drum and rattle, you will be transported to a state of deep relaxation, opening up pathways to discover your own personal wisdom. Sound will align your body, allowing you to feel a new and rejuvenated rhythm for life. It reminds our body about its natural state of wellness.
