After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully inter ...

What It's Like To Be a Sound Healer
Manage episode 358011060 series 2991391

Picture this: you lay down on a comfortable surface, close your eyes, and for up to an hour your body and mind are lulled into a state of prime restoration and relaxation by listening to the soothing sounds of crystal bowls being played by a master. Laura Penn Gallerstein, a master sound healer, uses a variety of modalities, including crystal bowls and a harmonium, in her sessions. In this episode, Laura explains the science behind the magic (how the vibrations from the bowls affect the vibrations in our bodies--which are comprised of mostly water); as well as the spiritual and musical aspects of the work. She also gives suggestions for anyone struggling with unending to-do lists, or waking up in the middle of the night with your head spinning--and teaches us why living in our parasympathetic nervous system is a much healthier place to be. Laura's message to all of us is, "You are good enough, just who you are."
In this episode:
- What is sound healing with crystal bowls? (02:15)
- Sample of playing the crystal bowls (06:23)
- Why the bowls affect people like they do (07:39)
- How Laura got interested in this work (10:40)
- What is required to be a master sound healer (12:32)
- Parasympathetic vs. sympathetic nervous systems in our bodies (15:22)
- Where the bowls are made and how much they cost (20:30)
- Describing the experience of being in a sound healing session (23:34)
- The beauty of leaning into things that feel scary and difficult (31:45)
